Find or take a new "before" picture. It is important to h**e a record of what you want to change. Weigh yourself and log in your starting weight. Write in your weight loss log all the reasons why you feel you need to lose weight. Did your doctor recommend it for health reasons? Do you want to h**e more energy or be fit enough to participate in certain sports? Whatever the reason, make sure they are your own and not because you are not measuring up to someone else's standards of what a healthy weightshould look like.
Begin exercising. Make it fun and be creative. Take brisk walks, learn pilates, lift free weights, join a gym, swim, etc. Make sure you get an instructor if you choose an activity you areunfamiliar doing. Vary activities so that you do not get bored. Start each by doing the best you can. If you are at a beginner level, each day challenge yourself to go five minutes more the next time. As you exercise, squeeze those muscles to get the best results! Go a little further each time. Schedule your work outs five days a week from a half hour to an hour and a half.
