Determined once again.
Since I joined the Army I have gained about 20 lbs which means I need to shed that weight. Right now I weigh in a little over 160; my goal by the end of the year is to be in the 130s.
Today is August 1. I have five months aka 22 weeks aka 153 days left until the end of the year. That means I have to lose at least 4 lbs/mo or ~1lb/wk. This is completely achievable! It looks like such a feat when I say I want to lose 20-30 lbs by the end of the year, but when you calculate it to just ONE pound a week? Who can’t do that??
The plan? Well, once I get my housing situation fixed and get settled in, I will resume PT. This means more walking, more running, more biking (I will buy a bike by the end of the week!), more everything. I’ve got P90X on my computer so I can do that at home, free gym on post (a “perk” of the Army, hehe), and plenty of buddies nearby ready and willing to work out with me. One pound a week? Piece of cake! Mmm… cake.
