Soul Searching

Well, over the last 24 hours I have done a bit of soul searching and poured it all into this blog!  I have added a few tabs to the top of my blog with some new sections! There is now an About Me page, a Goals page and a Progress page.

It all started yesterday morning with a weigh in.  You see, the gym session the other day really gave me a kick up the butt, and I thought about where I was heading and what I want, so, I thought I would get it all out there and write it all down.  I think I have been a little braver than I have in the past... there are a lot more photos involved!!  I have decided that on the Progress page, that ever 4 weeks I will not only update the stats, but I will also add a photo of me... and hopefully there will be changes!

So, I have set myself a goal of losing 8kg by 29 September 2012.  This works out to be 0.62kg per week (it's 13 weeks away).  There is a wedding on that we will be going to, and I would really like to be able to wear the dress I mentioned in this post. There is no particular reason for losing 8kg, I just wanted a goal that is achieveable and something that I can work towards. 

So, here are my stats.  This is my starting point!

Week 1

Wednesday 27 June 2012

		Change	Total Loss
Weight:	104.6kg	-	-
Arm:	32cm	-	-
Bust:	117.5cm	-	-
Waist:	127.5cm	-	-
Hips:	129cm	-	-
Thigh:	74cm	-	-

I also want to go to the gym 3 times a week, on a Monday, Tuesday and Thursday.  These are my days off from uni, and it means that I won't be straining my knee too much.

I also need to start calorie counting again, so I will be using Calorie King.  I am so out of practice for doing this, it seems to be taking a while to get back into that routine again.

One thing I do need to remember is that I don't have the same routines and lifestyle as before, so I will be making mistakes and probably eating things I shouldn't without thinking (comes down to practice again lol) - this is ok!!  Just keep going and keep trying!!
