Lose Weight, Our Journey Starts Now!

After starting a blog we weren’t quit sure which topic we would first like to tackle. A little video gaming with our children’s new video game console made it perfectly clear. As we set-up to play, we soon realized that it uses a persons height and weight to create the little character. Our characters were a little, okay a lot, on the chubby side. To say the least it was a little disheartening. At that point we made a pledge to lose weight. Both being former athletes in our late thirties, we had some idea of what it would take. The equation for losing weight is simple input is less than output equals weight loss. The equation for losing weight is simple; it is the actual weight loss that is difficult. We knew we would have to come up with a plan.

We have named it the Chubby-Mini-Me-Plan. The plan is as follows:

Watch what we eat-
We know that to lose weight we need to moderate our intake, we will eat healthy and keep a journal of our daily intake. We will try to keep intake to 1800 or fewer calories a day.

Exercise-
We will make time, at least thirty minutes a day, to exercise. We will jog, walk, and play the video game console that made us want to lose weight. We want to see the little mini me get a little less chubby.

More to come...
