RH Week 0

Current Weight= 229

Goal Weight=199

Weight to lose= A Lot


So sorry for slacking and not posting my goals or getting into this right away. I wanted to really commit to this and so I didn't want to start until I was ready to do this. I am committed now!


My reasons for loosing this weight is for health reasons and for energy reasons. I have a bad history of high cholesterol in my family and so I figure if I can make some small changes now I won't have to make huge changes in the future. The other reason is I feel lazy a lot and I want to have more energy again to do more things.


What I am going to do to loose the weight is first gain muscle so I can burn more calories doing nothing second, work cardio to get my heart pumping and to also loose weight and lastly change my diet....well I am not sure exactly what I will be doing on the food part yet. I really like food, but I will start my being more conscience of what I eat and when I eat it.


So here I go!
(This picture was actually taken about 2 years ago but I really haven't changed much since then so I didn't want to take another one, I may be 5-7 pounds heavier now than I was then, but you get the picture...I need to shape up or ship out!)
