…my success and struggles with weight loss and maintenance

My Weight-loss Program

What is My Weight Loss Plan?

  1. Journal at 3fc. If I don’t keep connected with other’s who struggle through the same battles, I feel alone and the problem feels too large for me to handle.

  2. I plan each meal [keep them balanced] and try to stick to it or change it to something just as healthy according to what I feel my body requires.

  3. I LOG each morsel of food that goes into my mouth and the CALORIES. I try to keep it around 1200 per day.

  4. Exercise routinely—1 hour of cardio, 6 days a week is what I shoot for. My cardiologist recommends ½ hour a day since I have had several heart surgeries. [I'm okay (just a murmur)—surgeries were during infancy.]

  5. Set SMART goals = specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and timely. I don’t necessarily do timely. I used to, but it was a lot of pressure. Now, I just try to meet my DAILY goals.

  6. Recognize God is greater than I am and He’s the only one who can lead me into SANITY. My relationship with him is stronger when I am On Plan.

So in short:

  • Journal
  • Support Group
  • Plan meals
  • Log calories
  • Set Goals
  • Pray
