Low Carb Diva

May 17, 2009

Yesterday was the end of week one in the Summer Weight Loss Boot Camp. I am pleased to report that I am down 1 pound. After having been stalled for the past 5 weeks or so I'll gladly take it.

What have I been doing differently? I started counting calories. Yes the dreaded chore that many people trying to lose weight have to do. Unfortunately with my lean body mass and fat ratio I cannot eat 2,000 calories a day and lose weight. I can maintain on this, but I must eat under 1400 calories to lose.

Exercise is pretty much the same: 3 days of weight training which is just pushups, squats and lunges (along with 15 minutes of cardio) as I don't have a gym membership and don't want one. Plus 3 days of cardio for 30 minutes.

If you have not started yet join this challenge today as the new week starts right now.

Only you can make the decision to change your body.
