The New Me
June 9th, 2009
Hello all,
Well I am going to be taking the next year to concentrate on myself. For the past decade I have been overweight and had little energy. I will be setting a new scheduled routine that I have to adhere to the strictest sense. I encourage those of you who know me to help me out with this and keep me accountable.
Every day after work I will be going to the fitness room at my apartment complex and walking on the treadmill for a certain period of time. I am going to try to start off walking a mile a day then gradually work my way to 2 miles. Right now at 283 lbs, I am definitely overweight and out of shape. I am hoping to lose 100 lbs by this time next year. My goal is to get to 180-190 lbs.
Another factor in losing weight is a diet. I am cutting out a lot of high fat and high calorie foods and drinks. I am not really counting calories, but I am in a way. I am choosing foods carefully at the grocery store. I need to be working towards keeping a meal down to about 350-400 calories. This means no more fast food for lunches, except Subway® every once in a while. I am getting my food advice from my dad who has had real success in this sort of diet. Again please help me stick to this.
So hopefully in a year, I will have changed into a whole new me. Again I ask all of you for your prayers and encouragement. Please help me stay accountable to this task. I pray that in time, you will see me again and see how much I’ve changed.
In God’s Love,
<>< Rich
