Starting my weight loss journey
After the death of my step-father in June, I have been thinking long and hard about my life and my health. My step-father had high cholesterol among other things. My father and mother both have high blood pressure and are overweight with many complications. I don’t want the same fate for me. Finally after struggling with myself on starting to lose weight, I have started to exercise and try to eat right.
In this effort I am starting out with these statistics:
Height: 5’10″
Weight: 300 lbs.
Waist: 50″
BMI: 28%
BMR: 2667.6 Calories
Desired Weight Loss: 100 lbs.
My plan is to lose 100 lbs before July 28th, 2012. This should be safe by losing approximately two pounds each week. I will be posting every week updates on my status.
