Week 1 and 2 Bob Greene



I am almost through week one!






Bob Greene's "Back to Business" Plan
By Bob Greene


Beginner



Weeks 1 & 2:

Food Switch: Replace soda with water, unsweetened iced tea, or fat-free milk. Diet soda is okay, but limit the amount, as it may encourage cravings for sweet foods.

Cardio: Fifteen minutes of activity such as walking or riding a stationary bike five times a week. You should be working hard enough so that you can talk, but not for very long.

Strength: None. Starting a strength-training program can stimulate hunger. That's why I recommend waiting until you get a few healthy diet changes under your belt.

Traps to Avoid: Don't be tempted by a shortcut (a fat-burning pill, a fad diet). It may work for a while, but to lose weight permanently you need to move more, eat less, and figure out the emotional reasons you turn to food.



My thoughts so far..

I think I have the basics down, but I am going to take it show because I want these to become habits.

Food: Soda is a not big problem for me so I am confident about cutting it out completely.

Cardio: I walk/jog with Stewie for 30minutes during the week and an hour on the weekends. No issues there!
