Ok, so, a couple of weeks ago I got on a scale and I saw a number I never, ever wanted to see: 200 lbs. Holy s***!!! So I gotta do something.
Stats:
Age: 26
Weight: 204 lbs.
Height: 5'4"
Size: 14
So the way I am planning to do this is through the use of a Wii Fit Plus and pirated Weight Watchers points plan. But to be quite fair, it's technically not WW since I'm not paying for it so henceforth we will just refer to it as "Points".
I've already been doing Wii Fit for a week but so far no changes for the better (in fact I think I've gained a pound).
So, now I am adding in the diet aspect. First of all, I'm going pescetarian. Which means the only animals I'll eat come from underwater. I was a strict vegetarian for five years but for reasons outside of my control was not able to keep it up for the last two years and at this juncture am not willing to give up seafood...yet.
I found out all I needed to know about Points on the internet. This is specific to me, points values differ based on height, weight and sex.
Points:
Daily points: 24-29
FLEX points (per week): 35

As far as a goal, I'm gonna start small. I'd like to lose 10 pounds before my 27th birthday, which is April 20. That leaves me about 7 weeks to lose 10 pounds, which is a nice healthy rate without too much pressure.
Goal:
Loss: 10 lbs.
Date: April 20
Time: 7 weeks
For the last week I have used my Wii Fit Plus 6 days out of 7. Every time was for at least 30 minutes and averaged about 40 minutes. But I was only doing Basic Hula Hoop and Basic Step. And sometimes the basic biking game in the Balance Activities. So I'm now going to broaden my horizons.
Wish me luck!
