Project Fiona: Exercise scheduled in

Exercise scheduled in

Some sources say only exercise will help you lose weight. Others say only diet will help you lose weight. Most say, try both to lose weight.

Goals to do with losing kilos are not Andy-the-personal-trainer's preference. But, as he said, "While it is the easiest way to measure success, it is not the best. But, you do have a bit of weight to lose, so let's use that for your first goal." Thanks Andy. Appreciated.

The training.
I have scheduled three high intensity training sessions.

Tuesday 6.30am
Thursday 6.30am
Saturday 7.00am

I am a morning person, so that suits me really well.

I haven't sorted out a group session time yet. I'll do that next week.

Good, exercise scheduled in. Tick.

About this blog

There is no way that I can become healthy in 26 seconds. But that is what I claim in the sub-title to this blog. Who is this charletan?

Well, I did have "weeks" instead of "seconds" when I first set up the blog. From obesity to a healthy me in 26 weeks. Sounds good. It sounds achievable. It isn't.

This blog details my journey to a healthy mind and body. It is not original, and it is pretty personal. Self image and self esteem are always... pretty personal.

I document any observations and revelations that I may stumble upon through this case study of one (me), relating to health, diet, exercise, motivation, and will-power.

Goals

8 week challenge: lose my ridiculously high expectations of shedding 12 kilos by 7 March 2011
5 week challenge: add fresh fruit and nuts to the spaces where cake, biscuits, slices and chocolate currently sit. No I am not going to try and lose 5 kilos by mid April.
5 week challenge: have friends over for a healthy meal and companionship every other weekend in the months of April and May. NO - I am not going to be losing 5 kilos by 16 May 2011.
4 week challenge: by 12 July 2011 I had aimed to be in the healthy weight range - losing 20 kilos in only a few months. Instead, my new goal? By 4 July, I have jogged my first 10km fun run.
Maintain a healthy BMI for the rest of my life. This is still my ultimate goal. But how I reach it must be profoundly different to watching the scale.
