Magazine Workouts

I have decided that I need to get active, as my weight has gone up in recent months. So I planned on joining the Self Challenge. I've joined it before, but I always fail to keep on track with all of the workouts and things. But I decided that this time would be different! So I jumped onto the Self website, was all ready to submit my info....when I discovered that this year, the Self Challenge is not open to Canadians. I tried emailing someone at Self magazine, asking if I could get in just for the workouts and whatnot, as I am not interested in their sweepstakes. But to date, I have not heard back.

And so I went looking on other fitness magazine websites that I knew of for a different plan that I could try out. I stumbled upon Fitness Magazine's Lose 10 Pounds in 30 Days plan. Since I have quite a bit of weight to lose (my goal is to lose about 30-40 pounds), I thought this might help kickstart an exercise habit. And losing 10 pounds by July sounds good to me! I'm just not so sure of whether that will be accurate - I just had a look at the meal plan that accompanies it, and I don't think I'm going to end up following it super accurately. But I'll worry about that later - I have an appointment with my dietician next week, so hopefully that will help me more with my eating habits!
