Weekly Goal Plan to lose weight with Steps and Potential Risk Areas and Pitfalls.











 

Hello Everyone,


So with this goal, I figured a needed a plan or steps. I’ve started with working backwards - it’s like working destination first and then how to get there. Then I worked out the potential pitfalls and risk areas.

 Steps Work from Goal Plan

  • On Sunday, weigh myself at Virgin Active aim to be 81kg - yes still keeping with the one pound target. 
  • Sunday morning walk to Virgin Active to get weighed - and have a nice hot tub and steam room. 
  • Walk up stairs for a week instead of taking the lift/elevator 
  • Walk to up a hill after work at least three times a week.
  •  Do twenty minutes light cardio at least three times a week - sheduled - Monday, Wednesday, Friday. 
  • Avoid deserts at work all week, and no cakes or pastries at the weekend either. 
  • Plan lunches and dinners in advance - at least a day ahead. 

 Risk Areas and Potential Pitfalls 

 These are potential obstacles and barriers to achieving my weight loss - at least so I'm aware of them in advance. Most of them are based on my moods at the time, and are pretty much the different versions of the same thing.
  •  Working late and getting too tired to cook or make anything - this tends to lower my resistance as I pick up stuff on the way home - normally a reduced price bakery products or eating a sugar laden cereal . 
  • Working under pressure or feeling under pressure to deliver - I normally have a chocolate bar or something sweet. 
  • Getting too tired after work so I just literally forget the plan or bypass it getting upset so I just get what I want instant gratification if something nice is on display 'This-time-won't-matter' mindset.
  •  Feeling 'this-is-a-once-in-a-while' treat I can't let go 
  • Supermarket reducing really expensive pastries at the end of day 
  • Bored with eating healthily or just generally boredom 
  •  Feeling as I'm depriving myself or going without when I just want to eat what I want
  •  Not actually planning meals or following the plan
  • Feeling the goal is unimportant in the short term and I can start tomorrow. 
  • Buying sugary cereal!
  • Giving in to temptation.
  • Eating late at night. Like super late - however this also ties in with working late. There is cascading effect on some things.
There are simple solutions though they aren't easy. I could simply avoid going to the supermarket after work. It's more difficult than it sounds. I could plan and cook weekly but I like fresh food and frozen stuff thens to hibernate in my freezer for a very very long time.

Check-ins?

I haven't figured this one yet. So simple but still a lot. Perhaps just a review at the end with lessons learnt. To be fair this will be an on-going goal until I get to a reasonable weight - basically fit into my old clothes again.

See you later

My African American & Black Love Romance Adventure Nearly Ready After Four Years.

Thanks for dropping by and taking the time to read this. This post is going to be about my upcoming black love and African American contemporary romance release, which I think tentatively will be late this year or early 2024. It will be a six-part serialised novel, and I'll reveal the date nearer the time. It has been five years since my last black love romance novel. I have two novellas published on Amazon, and I'm  pleased to finally say, I'm about to publish again. It's been a long time.  I planned to release this book in February 2019, but after a long writer's block and other things, it had taken me this long to complete it.  If you follow this blog on and off, I've spoken about it a lot over the years. I'm thinking maybe I should relabel those blog posts as a series of how it developed.  The Story Description The names have changed well from Angelica to Pippa but it's fine.  Everyone wants someone special but PIPPA MILLER thinks not her. She

Lost Four Pounds! Attended Pilates! Watched Patricia Bright

On Friday my boss got bored of me talking about my eating plan and how I only used my gym for the spa facilities, so let's just say I forced to put my money where my mouth was and ended up booking five exercise sessions. Yes, hard to believe I've been with my gym for over a year and have NEVER ATTENDED A GYM CLASS. Mainly, because I like the spa and thing food reduction is the way to lose weight also just thinking of exercise exhausts me. I needed to book them via the website but having never done it, my password failed so I rang, in front of my boss, the gym to book it. Proof. They are mainly low impact classes so nothing too strenuous or so I thought. Come Saturday, I'm down the gym for my pilates class with all these fit, slim and trendy people. It's a 9AM class so basically like a work day for me. I thought pilates was gentle. Not. I say this having done it for about three years in a dance school - yeah I was once about twenty pounds or ten kilos lighter - and the

HAPPY NEW YEAR - LET THE GOALS ROLL

Hello all. Happy New Year! So last year was awesome for me because I managed to achieve one goal. The biggest goal which was to get a new job. And that came with financial reward as well. Yay! It was hard, challenging, horrible. I hate change but I had to get out of the rut I was in. Dudes, I was desperate to move. So I dug deep, did my interview practice, attended a number of interviews and hit one. Yay. Now longer gaming. I didn't need the escapism with my new positive work environment. I also abandoned the iPhone family and went Android. To cut a long story short, I got bought an iPhone 8 but it was faulty - however Apple weren't transparent about their return policy - ALWAYS ASK ABOUT RETURN POLICY. Nor did they believe the phone was faulty. It was. Anyway I was so disgusted the arrogance of the 'apple people', I decided instead of getting a replacement to spend my money elsewhere. I'm still part of the Apple family. But the Apple Store sales assist
