new plan

An update to the orginal plan.

Daily

• calorie count! - weigh and write down what I eat
  
• aim to eat 1500 - 1750 calories per day
  
• drink at least 1 litre of water a day
  
• eat no crisps
  
• drink no sugary fizzy drinks
  
• think before eating - am I really hungry? what will this food do for me?
  
• eat at least 3 pieces of fruit a day (together with the veggies I usually get at meal times, that will put me on target for 'Five a Day')
  
• remember to suck my tummy in as much as possible!

Weekly

• exercise for at least 30 minutes, 5 days out of 7, normally to include:
  
  • 1 aquarobics session
    
  • 1 belly dance class
    
  • 1 swim
    
  • do my belly dance video once a week
    
  • walk for 30 mins, at least 3 days a week
    
  • go by bike (instead of car/bus) whenever practical
    
• do something active with O every weekend (eg bike ride, walk, go swimming)
  
• weigh myself once a week only, on Monday mornings

Monthly

• lose 1 lb a week on average (the 'pound a week' club)
  
• set a monthly challenge (starting November)
