How To Lose 35 Pounds in 8 Months: Part 2
Continuing where I left off a while back, there are plenty of things to take into consideration when trying to lose 35 pounds or any weight for that matter. Here are a few things to think about before you start:
- Why do I want to lose the weight
- Do I want to just lose the weight, or do I want to lose only fat and gain muscle mass at the same time
- How much weight do I want to lose
- How committed to losing the weight will I be
- How will I stay motivated
- What things will I do differently in my lifestyle to make this weight loss happen
- When do I want to lose this weight by
These are all great questions to get you started on your weight loss goals. I started off with the intent to lose 30 pounds and ended up losing 35 lbs, but even after that I have not gotten to my target weight. I just took a break for a while, but I am going to start losing the weight again. I want to get down to 175 lbs by September and right now I am at 203 lbs. This means I have to make a goal of losing at least 2.14 pounds per week for the next 14 weeks. This is my current goal and will keep you updated on my current goals as well as how I lost the first 35 lbs.
