Plan of Action

Right. Plan of action has been thought of and (almost) finalised. However, any help/information/words of wisdom would be greaty appreciated! I'll detail my plan in the next post, and honestly, feel free to give me any hints on how to adapt it, or even to let me know if you think it's a fairly well thought-out plan. Any feedback will be considered helpful!

So... The woman who did my fitness test said I have to get my bmi down to a certain level and I have to get my weight down to a certain level, according to a chart. A chart is a generalisation and a generalisation only. We are not all built the same, we do not have the same mass of bones in our bodies and we are not all the same build. In my eyes, she was wrong in telling me that I MUST be a certain way or else I'm not healthy. Well, I'm sorry but I don't believe a word of it. Someone of my stature has no business being a size 10. If I could get down to a 14, I'd be thrilled. Any further and people will start asking if I'm unwell... again. I say again because I've been down past a 14 before and everyone was asking if I was feeling alright. I was, but I was also pale (paler than normal) and looking tired and drawn. This was not my idea of looking good, and if I'm honest, I wasn't feeling good either. So I'm going to ignore what that woman said - mostly. I know I need to lose weight and my bmi (bullsh*t mass index, as I like to call it) is far too high, but I do not need to slim down enough to be able to look like a model in a bikini. Let's face it, it's just not going to happen!

What my main goal is, is to be a size 14, maybe a tad under to be a very comfortable 14, and to look and feel good and healthy. As soon as I start to look thin, I'm stopping the workout and just going to try and maintain the weight I reach. I'd like to be 90kg again, and as I'm sitting at 116kg just now, I have a bit to go! But I shall struggle on and make my goal weight. Apparently, I should make it by mid July, but we'll see. Woo!
