If you are reading this, it is probably because you want to find success with your own weight management, or I guilted you into it. :)
If it's the former, please remember what your goal is, or should be. Don't focus on what you can do for the next 4 weeks or so to get into a dress or ready for the summer. Do what you should have been doing for the last couple of years so that you would even be in this situation.
-Don't be overly aggressive with your weight loss. Too fast, too soon usually means a quick fix and results don't last.
-Don't starve yourself. Not enough calories can lead to malnutrition and a metabolism that slows down.
-Don't focus only on food. Most people (by a large margin) that keep their weight off also exercise.
-Don't injure yourself. If you try to engage in too much exercise too soon, an injury might be looming.
Big picture, if you want a thinner and healthier body with a lower body fat, enroll yourself in the marathon and not the spirit. A short-term mentality won't lead to life long changes.
This blog is about the ups and downs of weight management from the vantage point of someone with knowledge (2 degrees in Kinesiology) and less than perfect genes. It's about creating healthy habits. Read the first post to see how the inspiration of this blog began. Please comment or ask questions.
