Biggest loser starts tomorrow

Our initial weigh-in is tomorrow to launch our 12-week program at the local YMCA. I think my weigh-in is going to be on the high side. Oh well, it's to my advantage in the competition. Plus we will get our initial measurements taken.

Our first Challenge is to log all our food intake. Hey, I can do that! I do it about half the time now on the fitday.com software, so all I have to do is get back to doing it and be consistent about it. I'll set it up again with a new starting point and goals for the twelve-week duration. A pound per week is fine with me - I don't think a loss of more than that is healthy for most folks.

Good luck and I agree with you that slow and steady is the way to go. Logging food is the first big step to managing your calories, enjoy it!

Good luck! Short of insanely high training levels, a pound a week is a pretty good goal. Twelve pounds makes a huge change, and you'll find yourself making HUGE gains in endurance events.

Go! Fight! Win! Then call me. I enjoy our little chats...
