And We’re Off!
Alright so 2010 has started and it’s time for New Year resolutions to be set, and hopefully not broken. Like many Americans I am setting the resolution to lose weight. I was successful last year in losing weight, but unfortunately I don’t know exactly how much I lost through the year, and even more unfortunate was the fact that the last quarter of the year I actually put a lot of the weight back on. So I’m going to go a different route this year, and the website is going to be a big part of it. Not only will you be able to follow my progress, but I will have a way of easily keeping track of my progress.
The last time I was at the gym and used the life center to test my BMI, body fat percent, weight, and blood pressure was December 29th, 2009. Since I haven’t been since then, I’m going to use those stats for my starting point of the year. Below are those stats:
Blood Pressure:
Systolic: 114
Diastolic: 79
Body Mass Index:
32.4
Body Fat Percent:
27.1%
Weight:
242 lbs
One of the things I am going to start doing tomorrow is a running/walking workout. It’s a nine week process that is three times a week. Each week I will post what the workout entails for that particular week and indicate how the previous weeks went. For those who are wanting to lose weight this year as well, please feel free to follow these steps and post comments as to your progress!
“Week one begins with a brisk five minute warmup walk. After the walk, jog for 60 seconds and then walk for 90 seconds. Alternate the jogging and walking for a total of 20 minutes.”
Good luck to everyone on their New Year resolutions! Hope everyone is able to succeed with their goals, and I’m hoping that I can success in mine as well.
