Weigh in and Stats

Hey everyone,

As of Friday morning I officially began my food plan of the diet. The past few days have been miserable for sure but I am getting through it. I know that as time passes by it will become easier. To commemorate the beginning of my food plan I weighed in and got an official starting weight. Here's a picture of that weigh in:

As you can see all my stats are terrible right now. The little arrows should be closer to the middle where that light blue bar is. Apparently I am carrying the weight of a small woman's worth of fat on my body, that's practically a an entire persons worth of weight in fat! Here's a look of how I've been doing so far from the beginning:

Take a look at the dates at the bottom. That was over Christmas holidays and New Years, even though I have not lost much weight yet I am pretty proud of myself that I even lost anything over the holidays. I still enjoyed myself but I made sure to limit the amount of cookies and sweets, after meals I would try and go out for a walk, and I even went to the gym with my friend Jake once and It paid off. How many of you can say you lost weight over Christmas!?

As for staying active, currently I am trying to walk as often as possible. I would be doing more but due to my high blood pressure the doctor has ordered I take it easy at first until it is decreased enough. Thanks to my Nike + here's a run down of what I have completed so far. I'll break down in numbered sections to give everyone an idea of what your looking at.

1. This is a bar graph for the total distance of all the walk /runs I've done so far. The most recent one on the 14th my iPod turned off because it was too cold out! That's why it's smaller than the others.

2.These are the totals for the month of all my work outs accumulated.

3. I have the option to view all my data by day, week, month, or even all time.

4. This is one of my most favorite parts of the Nike + site. This is a progression bar that counts my total miles walked/ran. It is divided in levels, just like a video game, as you will remember from my last post that is what I am trying to achieve. The more that I'm active the higher level I will become. I really think that's going to be a great motivator for me.

That's about all for today, thanks again for coming back and reading my blog. Next time I post I will introduce you to my Arch Nemesis/Rival and let you know how I'm planning to deal with it.
