Fat to Fit - What's realistic?



WHAT IS REALISTIC WHEN LOSING WEIGHT?
Loosing up to 1kg each week any more is not good for your body or metabolism
Have a good support system you will need them
Don't expect to change your diet over night and not have setbacks
Don't expect your body to be perfect once the weight is gone.
muscle and fat ratio is different. they may weigh the same but muscle take up less room; muscle is good!
Find an exercise you can continue all year and in all conditions, you will make less excuses for not doing it.
Don't aim for a number on the scale (I use it to track how I am going) Aim for a size or measurement something more tangible than a number.

CHANGES I'M MAKING THIS WEEK:
Do more exercise
Eat more whole foods instead of processed foods
Watch portion sizing


My Aim this week:
Is to drink less and exercise more.
I am limiting myself to 2 alcoholic drinks on 2 days a week.
