Greetings all.
So I'm on day 2 of month 1 of my first transformer.
I have to admit that I was kinda terrified to sign up for this. Losing this much weight is waaaaay out of my comfort zone, something I've not done before.
If I succeed I'll be lightest I've been since I was at school. And while that both excites and terrifies me at the same time - I decided I owed it to myself to REALLY try. I've tried before, but I always give up after a month or so.
When I signed up for my kickstarter last month, I wasn't too worried. I knew I could get down to the goal weight, because I had done it before. But this is something completely new - and I'm really worried I won't be able to do it.
My motivation for doing this is I really just want to feel proud of myself. I'm fed up of hating the way I look and feel about myself. I want to be strong - and I want to look it too. I'd love to be able to see some muscle definition - but I've got to get my body fat down to do that! So here I am!
I've decided to set myself an additional goal every month on top of the weight loss - this month is to drink more water. Hopefully this will help curve my hunger as well as just keep me healthier and hydrated.
In the meanwhile - I'm going to knuckle down - hit the gym, keep to my calorie goal (at least 6 days of the week anyway - and don't eat like a rhino on the other day!) and just give this my all.
Hopefully keeping a blog going on this will make me a bit more accountable!
Here's to the rest of the month being a success for everyone!
