As the summer is approaching fast, I will not be able to hide my big belly under heavy coats anymore. Therefore, I decided to start losing weight as my personal challenge. Losing weight could be hard if I do not have a good plan and mindset. It is important to set a realistic goal on how much weight to lose per month. Since I only have four weeks, I think losing four kilograms a month seems decent.

I will be exercising at the Uvic’s gym, CARSA, because I still have the membership that I purchased from last year. I plan to exercise at least five times a week and I will be doing both weight training and cardio. I will train each of my muscle groups for a day and following a 30 minutes cardio. Although doing cardio is great when losing weight, it is more important to restrict what I eat daily. As I am 180 cm height and 87 kilograms, I decided to eat at around 1800 calories each day.

Since I used to workout at the gym, I believe that I can catch up this very fast. Because I have already gone through the encoding, consolidation, and retrieval phases of forming mind-muscle connection.
