Okay it is time for me to get serious about my weight loss (ya I have heard that one before too). I am tired of feeling horrible (get heartburn on a regular basis it seems) and looking horrible. Most of my clothes wither don't fit or don't fit properly. I also want to stop hiding from pictures and want lots of family photos during our Disney World trip in December.
Hi my name is Jennifer and I am a foodaholic and exercise avoider. I'm 38, 5'4", and currently weigh approx. 209 lbs. I swore I would never be close to, let alone over 200 lbs. Well that didn't work out. I am a mother of 3 (2 teenage sons and a little girl).
I would like to eventually get down to about 130 lbs but we'll see how I am once I get somewhere close to there. For now I just want to lose some weight for our trip in December which is about 27 weeks away. I will be aiming for 27 lbs lost by trip time which is 1 lb a week. I think that is doable. I will be hoping for more but I don't want to discourage myself.
I will be doing this by:
My weekly exercise plan will be as follows:

I will be doing this by:
- only drinking water (no pop, juice, or alcohol) - aiming for 3L a day
- cutting out as much processed food as possible
- tracking calories on Sparkpeople - aiming for 1570 calories or slightly less
- following a running app to go from 0-5k-10k and if that goes well 10k-half marathon
My weekly exercise plan will be as follows:
- Mon --> running app before work
- Tue --> 45 min walk before work
- Wed --> running app before work
- Thu --> 45 min walk before work
- Fri --> running app before work
- Sat --> 45 min-1 hr walk
- Sun --> 45 min-1 hr walk
