Tomorrow Is Start Day

Well, I've started this blog as a way of motivating myself and keeping track of my goals for the BodySculpt 2010 Challenge. As usual, I was due to start a week ago, but several things got in the way and messed me up (entirely my fault... I shouldn't have let them happen, but I did!). So, I'm going to start AGAIN, better prepared this time! (Ideally I prefer to start on the 1st of the month, but it's not necessary for the challenge...). While the winner gets $5000 (a tidy sum indeed), I'm not really in it for the money!

Over the last year I gained 10kg GAK! This isn't great considering I was already overweight... but now I've really pushed over the line into OBESE, which I loathe! I'm at the point where I don't like going out in public cause I don't want people to see me. I especially dread seeing people I know who haven't seen me in some time, because I just KNOW they're going to think: "Gee she's put on so much weight!" I'd rather see people I haven't seen in ages and have them thinking the opposite ;) To add to my motivation, my 20 year high school reunion is on the 1st of May, and I've already told a good friend from high school I'll be going. Of course, there's no way I'd go in my current condition... I just couldn't bring myself to do it! So, even if I can't lose all my excess weight by the 1st of May, I will aim to at least be in the healthy weight range by then!

I'll weigh myself tomorrow morning, and take some measurements (if I can find a tape measure) and then it's all systems go! I'll do an update, a weight loss tracker etc. etc. once I've sorted all this out. I'll also try to keep track of the amount of activity I get done (to be fully compliant means 10,000 steps a day and a bodysculpt workout), as well as the food I eat. The goal is to be fully compliant with all food, snacks and activity!
