Hey everyone
So starting tomorrow I am starting my first Body for Life 12wk challenge. I am very excited , but also very nervous . I just don't want to fail again. I want to finish this and be sucessful.
So a little about me. I am 26 years old and a registered nurse. I currently weigh 226 and wear a size 18-20. My goals for the 12wk challenge are to
1 lose 20lbs
2 wear a size 14 (which I have a ton of clothes in a box)
3 run 1 mile continuously
4 climb 5 flights of stairs without difficulty
5 use 15lb weights for my upper body workouts
So if you haven't heard of the Body for Life program it is a detailed program of weight lifting and exercise that, if followed, has some pretty great results. Basically you rotate between upper body, aerobic, lowerbody, aerobic, upper body etc with one day off a week. You also have a free day on eating, otherwise you should eat every 3-4 hours and have protein and good carb.
So at first I am going to try and check in several times a week with how my workout is going and any difficulties I am having. I don't think I will be charting exactly what I am eating, but who knows?
wish me luck
