This is it. Time to "start it up" My "official" weigh in this morning is 215.7. I have 13 weeks for this first part of my plan. My goal is to be down to 189 by August 30.
Generally speaking, I'm going to be following the WW flex point plan. Specifically, I'm trying to keep my calories between 1200 and 1500 a day. Water consumption needs to go up.
Exercise, it's going to be a 2 mile walk a day (WATP) and I'm using the beachbody.com program "Slim in Six" for my weight resistance training. This program ramps up as you get more fit. The starting program is about 34 minutes long, by the end of the 1st or 2nd week (going at your own rate), the program is about 57 minutes long.
As added "bonus" exercise, I'm going to encourage more "play time" with my kids. Last year at this time we were playing tag in the playgrounds after school, and trying to make it to the gym once or twice a week. I think it's time we start that back up again. I may not pursue it too heavily here, since only two weeks remain, but once we are in Phoenix and school is out.. I'll convince them they need to help "me". :) I have already found one laser tag gym in Phoenix, something we all enjoyed in CO. Springs.
Swimming lessons will be a "must" while we are in Phoenix. Hopefully, there is a "Y" near my mother.
