I start the WEIGHT LOSS RESEARCH PROJECT on Monday…at 5:15.

Finally got to take off my activity monitoring arm band I’ve had on for 8 days…opened the envelope from my last visit when I did the EKG…and I realized, I did not have to wear it to bed…man oh man…I wish I wasn’t so ADD…or forgetful…or old.  I also remembered (once I saw the form: ) that I was supposed to write down everytime I took it on and off.  OOOOPPS again.

Oh well…I will become part of a group and get my official weight loss info on Monday, so now the real work begins. 

I know it will be 1500 cals (until I get to 200 pounds and then it will go to 1200), and I have to write it all down, plus walk 30 mins at least everyother day. 

Since I am semi wogging, and going to the gym…I think the exercise will be ok.  It’s just going to be a struggle to remember to write down everything I eat…and keep up with all those calories.  I think before next week I will figure out some meals that are 300-400 cals…and snacks that are 100-200 cals so that way it will make it easier to keep track.

All my love…my guinea pig love…

Here’s a video of me  after I got the call…you gotta see my before pictures!

    OMG! I’m dying laughing at the video… too funny!

    Did I miss one of your blogs about the research group thing??? I must go back and check.

    You mentioned wogging. I’ve read that interval walking and jogging burns more calories and speeds up metabolism better than just jogging the whole way. It makes sense to me since you are speeding up and slowing down the heart rate back and forth.

    Keep up the fantastic attitude!!!!

    Hugggggggggggs… you little guinea pig you… hehe
