This blog started as a record of my journey from being classed as Obese to my target weight. Starting at 170cm and weighing in at 86.3kg my aim was to get to a healthy weight which should be around 69.9kg. Along the way, i've joined a gym, taken up running and now completing Parkruns.

Setting some goals
Over the last week I've eaten healthily and now track what I consume with the MyPlate app from Livestrong. That has made a real difference in the diet and I have started looking more at the food labels before I eat. Aiming to lose 0.5Kg a week now as a target and tracking all my activity with an Apple Watch the daily long walks with the dog and a few after work 10 mile cycle rides along the River Adur really have kick started the diet in an awesome way. I've lost 2.2Kg this week!
Back to goal setting, looking at my BMI rating I was just under 30... obese, and to become "normal" I need to shed 16.4Kg or 11 Stone. So I have this down as my end target and divided my approach into half stone goals and colour coded my Excel tracker accordingly. Goal 7 is what my recommended weight should be, not sure it's a goal I want though seems way to skinny but 5 weeks in now and I've hit Goal 1.
