It is now September and I need to start school. Routine is my best friend when it comes to fitness. Even though the game doesn't start til next week, I want to start working my plans into my life this week so next week I am ready to go.
Here are my ideas to help me lose 4% body weight in 4 weeks (a feat that I have never attained before):
Alcohol - 1 unit per week.
Exercise - two times a day M-F, once on Sat. Day off on Sunday. I hope to do my cardio runs/ellipticals in the morning and some sort of strength or yoga or fitness class in the afternoon.
Food - my biggest problem. I have planned out breakfast and lunches for the week while at work. I hope to still be able to cook dinners but to focus on portion control. My biggest problem time is after work til bedtime. I plan to have to exercise before having a snack - pushups or planks or a walk. This is my plan M-F. I know weekends tend to be harder to stay to a routine. I want to work on that as well.
Diary - I already use myfitnesspal.com and want to continue along with using this site.
I was going to keep this post private, but I think I might have more motivation if I make it public. Hopefully it helps.
