Good Morning fellow CC'ers!
Whilst I'm not new to minimins or calorie counting, I haven't posted properly in quite a while. But now I've decided to end my career as a long-time lurker and start my own diary to help me stay on track!
So a little bit about me: I'm nearly 22 and 5ft tall. I'm what most people would call slim (in fact I do have a healthy BMI) however, I was always the chubby one at school. When I reached the age of about 16 I slimmed down a bit (most likely due to the 2 hrs of walking everyday to college and back!) However I have gained a little weight since then and would like to feel a bit more fitter and firmer. I only have maximum of a stone to lose, but I'd also like to tone up a lot more too.
I started a couple of weeks ago and have lost 4lb, however this could have been so much more if only I'd stay on track at the weekends!
I'm aiming for 1200 calories a day and will try to keep them as healthy as possible. I've also started kickboxing and go twice a week, but I'll try to add in some more exercise on top of that too.
It's my birthday in two weeks tomorrow (cue squeal of excitement - I'm such a kid!) so my short term goal is a rather simple one - lose 2lbs and be under 8st for my birthday. Once all the celebrations are out the way I can concentrate on losing the remaining 7lbs or so and focus on my fitness.
I hope that keeping a diary of what I eat and what exercise I do will encourage me to make the right choices as I know I'll have to come on here and confess afterwards!
So, enough about me, is there anyone else on the board who only has a little left to lose? Any tips?
Wish me luck!
