Weight Loss For Summer

It seems to be forever since I have been here, I think the last time was for a 6 week challenge. Well guess what, I flopped! Nothing, no changes…….but to lose the weight you have to be ready and ready I now am. I am not entering into any weight loss competitions, I don’t care if it takes me 6 weeks, 12 weeks or the rest of the year for that matter! All that matters is that I am doing it for my health and fitness.

I am now ready to get in great shape and as of today I am starting on The Diet Solution. I am excited to see just how well this program that is raved about actually works. So this will be my online journal of my weight loss journey. As of yet I am undecided whether I will just follow my own exercise program or whether I will also put Turbulence Training to the test ( I had better work that out pretty soon huh!?!)So just a quick post because as of yet I have nothing to tell, but I did survive the first day of The Diet Solution really well. It has not been too much of a shock considering that my food has been really bad of late! I spend my time looking after all of my clients that I do not take the time to take care of myself. The biggest shock was cutting out all of the coffees……the rest was pretty much a piece of cake (not literally!! )

So anyway I guess to have a starting point I must post my starting weight and measurements, so here goes……..

Weight: 73.5kg,   Chest: 90cm,   Waist: 80cm,   Hips: 105cm,   Thigh: 64.5cm,   Calf: 39.5cm,   Arm: 30.5cm

My goal is to be able to wear short shorts by the beginning of Summer, and lose at least 10kg of body fat…..guess I better get cracking, that is just 18 weeks from now. So on that note I am going to go and do my cardio training, intervals on the exercise bike and I will keep you posted as my journey continues.
