OPoCCtGP's PuBaSWoP Plan - End of day 7, i.e. Week ONE
LoR - had I told you what my goal was when we began the PuBaSWoP? It was to lose 6 lbs by Sept 30th. And that weight was with my jeans on. :) That was 1 lb each week. Looks like I'm close to target for my first week. Though the amount of cake and frosting I had yesterday will show up in the scale tomorrow. :( But so far, lost 1 lb. Also lost $1 for 4/7 workout days and $1 for pigging on aforementioned cake. Yay! Can't enjoy the woods though. Miles to go before I sleep. :)

OPoCCtGP's PuBaSWoP Plan
LoR!
Your post is inspiring me to come up with my plan too.
I am at the highest weight I have been in TWO years.
At this point, my aim is to reach my goal weight (with my jeans) by Sept. 30th, 2006. (After that, the cellulite busting plan!)
My 5-day, 30 minute minimum in a week plan stays.
The first two weeks, I am going to do only aerobic activities. After that I will incorporate weights into my program as well. But first, only aerobic activities.
I am not going to be able to limit my desert intake to twice a week or so. I know myself. I would binge then. So I'm going to eat them when I want, as long as it is a decept proportion. :^). Really.

OPoCCtGP's back!!!
OK, enough is enough. Too many weeks of absence. Too many weeks of gluttony. Too many weeks of cinnamon-sugar pita chips, of icecream, of cartons of shrikhand, of containers of cannoli. It shows. Only too well. Am back ON the bandwagon. Even if no one else is around or cares - I'm keeping track of what I eat! Time to take care of my body! Time to get back in the gym!!
