Work Harder at muscle toning.
February 5 2013; I planned to be at my healthy weight last year but it has not happened yet. After I became overweight I started to take it easy since every metabolic measurement was normal and I was no longer tired, no back pain or knee pain in the mornings. I could walk up the stairs without being out of breath, I took it easy and it shows. For all 2012 I have stayed stagnant between 169-160 lb.

February 5 2013; I planned to be at my healthy weight last year but it has not happened yet. After I became overweight I started to take it easy since every metabolic measurement was normal and I was no longer tired, no back pain or knee pain in the mornings. I could walk up the stairs without being out of breath, I took it easy and it shows. For all 2012 I have stayed stagnant between 169-160 lb. I ate health meals 70 % of the time and indulged on baked goods , nuts and breads 30% of the time and that 30 % have derailed my good intentions of being healthy. This 5% winter challenge, I am going to get off being happy with the over weight BMI and work to get a healthy one. The plan, is to track my food intake, drink water, have a balanced exercise schedule, currently I am a cardio-exercise junkie with little strength training and very little relaxation. I will seek help when needed and offer support to my team throughout this challenge. I will try to live in the moment ( exercise, eat healthy, drink enough water and get enough sleep one day at a time) and let tomorrow look after itself. I have a physical check up in July I want to be in my healthy weight goal by them ( 145- 135 lb).
