So this is actually starting with Week 2 of my quest, which I've titled "Lose the Fat, Luke" because I'm a huuuuuge Star Wars nerd and if I can make losing weight fun and interesting for myself by incorporating things make my weird little heart flutter I believe it will help me be successful.
This week, hmm...I want to add onto last week's goals but I want to make sure that I don't overdo it so that I can "Stay on target!" and not get blasted off my course by a TIE fighter.
Last week was a lot of walking. I walked for 30 mins 3 times during my break at work and I walk to and from work (about 20 mins each way) 3 times as well. I think I need to add in a bit of muscle work to balance it out a little. I'm as weak and pathetic as Kylo Ren claims Ben Solo was.
So, maybe keep the walking goals as they are (2 separate goals) and add a bodyweight workout goal. Since I have noodles for muscles I'll start with completing 1 bodyweight workout this week and the workout will be doing 1 set of each exercise. It sounds laughably easy, but I'm certain that baby steps will be the key to my strength training since I'm far too prone to joint injuries.
I definitely need to keep on logging everything that I eat, that was extremely effective last week and I want it to be a habit that sticks.
Alright so here's my plan:
"Lose the Fat, Luke" Week 2 Goals
1) Daily log of calorie intake every day this week.
2) Walk 30 mins on break 3 times this week.
3) Walk to and from work 3 times this week.
4) Complete 1 set of a bodyweight workout once this week.
I'll be reporting in with my progress daily, until then...
May the Force be with you!
