It’s time for Day 13 of the 30-Day Weight Loss-athon.
All tasks in the 30-Day Weight Loss-athon are adapted from the 52 Weight Loss Missions program.
Read the steps first, then take 10 minutes to complete them.
Move fast, act quickly and stop over-thinking. Ready?
I have three organising tasks to do, and I pledge to do them by Monday. 1 – sort out my swimming bag. 2 – book 3 x one to one Pilates sessions. 3 – put my swimming and zoo walk days into the diary from Monday until end Feb.
Hi Jenny,
You’re making great progress.
Thanks for commenting along the way. There are others doing the course who are yet to comment. Not everyone likes to do that, and that’s ok. I’m enjoying your friendly posts. 🙂

I stated a year long coaching program called Precision Nutruition on February 1, and through that I get a full body, strength building exercise routne 3x a week. I have home gym supplies set up for strength work every week. Right now my aerobic exercise is walking, but soon I hope to be released to run again and then I need to buy some new running shoes. The one thing I really want to add to my routine again is yoga and pilates, so when I get through my PT which takes about an hour a day, I look forward to gettng back on the mat, and I have all the equipment I need for that.
Our group is preparing for walking as follows:
In good weather walk in your neighborhood or local park with your walking buddy. Wear appropriate footwear as walking puts pressure on your feet which can cause tired aching feet.
Make an exercise playlist of your favorite music you can walk to.
Set reasonable goals for your progress.
Develop a strong mental attitude for “slow but steady” exercise.
Make sure you have consumed at least 8-16 ounces of water an hour before you are about to walk.
Pick an easy walk for your first time! Set a time limit of 2-5 minutes to start.
Improve your performance; increase your time; each walk increase by one minute until you are about to sustain a 10-minute walk.
Once you reach 45 minutes of walking daily work on your speed.
You can purchase a heart rate monitor and wear it during your exercise for increased accuracy and precision. If you are under your target rate, you need to increase walking speed for it to be beneficial for your health.
Once you’re used to walking try to switch things up.
Medical: if your under medical treatment or have a disability check with your doctor before you start exercising for possible limitations.
