So here it is, Day #1 of the PlusSize Bloggers’ 12 week challenge!
My Current Weight is….. 183lbs! At 5’1″, I am Obese with a BMI of 34.6 according to the calculator found at http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/
My current standing is this, I am 25, almost 26, with 53lbs to lose! My mission in being a part of this challenge isn’t to win all of the cool stuff that goes along with it, even though that would be great, but to live a healthier life! This challenge is going to give me a jump start to repairing my health! After succeeding at this, I will continue on for the rest of the year… & just maybe I will keep my new year’s resolution this year (then I will have to think up another one for a change).
How is this time going to be different? I really think what I was lacking was accountability. This challenge has that for me! I have to be accountable, I have to post my weight every week… & how embarrassing would it be to report a gain, right? I also have some other stuff, like my health insurance (United Healthcare) is offering me some sweet incentives to keep track of my weight & exercise. I also found this free website that helps me track calories consumed, calories burned, gives me meal plans, etc. So, I think I got the right tools this time!
Anyone want to know more about the free website I found, send me a message with your e-mail address & I will e-mail you the link!
