I was going to link you over to my other blog to read that post, but.. I’ll just give you a quick explanation here instead (although posts will link there in future, or from there to here, depending). For the other fitness challenge I’m in, the hostess gave us a mini-challenge to kick things off. We were to weigh and measure ourselves, take a before picture, and create a plan. Here are mine…well, most of ‘em.

Photo, Weight, Measurements

I’ve weighed in and done my measurements, recording them all at My Fitness Pal. I will take a before picture, but I won’t be posting either that or the measurements until I feel more comfortable doing so. I know that’s part of this challenge, to feel comfortable with this whole journey, but I’m just not, not yet.

Create A Plan

My diet plan (Month 1):

My exercise plan (Month 1):

I’ll likely carry the exercise plan through to the end of the challenges (both GOYB & 60byXmas). Draco says she’s going to make me stick to it, and frankly, she’s damn scary. <|;) * The diabetic exchange diet was recommended by my doctor, as there is a high prevalence of Type 2 in my maternal family, as well as Type 1 in my paternal family. So far, I’m clear on both (and I’m too old for Type 1 to show up now, I think..).
