I am officially ending my last attempt 1.5 years after my last weigh in. I know I know. My bad. Moving On.
How bad was it? I put all the weight back on and a little bit more. New starting weight is 394. Yikes. Back on the wagon I go.
I am starting this journey by reading and following the The Program: The Brain-Smart Approach to the Healthiest You: The Life-Changing 12-Week Method
At this point (I have read the book through week 3), I am starting by exercising daily, starting a food journal, and starting an exercise journal.
My Program goal (12 weeks) is to lose 30+ pounds after the first week (this is way more than she suggests, but I have way more to lose than most. (If the past holds true then watching my food and alcohol and exercising will result in rapid first week weight loss. So the 30 pounds in 11 weeks that follow translates into a modest less 3 pounds a week (2.72 to be exact). In other words I need to run ~10,000 weekly calorie deficit. If I can run a 1,500 calorie daily deficit I will more than reach my goal. My starting resting daily calorie burn is ~ 11*394=4,334 (11 times your weight is a rule of thumb to calculate your resting calorie burn.) I have plenty of room.
My first weeks goals are to exercise daily keeping a journal and to keep a food journal. Both will be done via this site.
