Hello I'm Nat, I'm 23, I'm absolutely massive and climbing the stairs makes me wheeze. Welcome to my all-new online weight loss journal. I've defected from LiveJournal in order to not bore my f-list with further moaning about my diet and gym habits. I doubt anybody's going to be interested in this - people start weight loss journals every day - but I'll try to keep it exciting with interactive maps, charts and tables and things. I might even throw in a musings on all the fun things I get up to. But anyway, weight loss...
Diet: Weight Watchers (24 points a day, or 168 points a week)
Gym: Body for Life eventually, but I think I'll start with 3 gym sessions this week and see where that leads me. At least 20 minutes cycling, 20 minutes walking, 20 minutes cross training - plotting maps so it looks like I'm getting somewhere. My last attempt at this is here:
I think I might start again. This is going to sound completely nuts but I like to aim high - the cycling can be from LA to NY (that looks like that's going to take about 7 years), the cross training can be from Preston to London, the walking can be from Lands End to John O'Groats. But we'll start with Preston to Prenton for all three.
And I've called this The Pop Star Project as I aim to lose enough weight so as to be comfortable as a live performer again. Working title was Project Rockstar, but then I remembered that was an internet game. So The Pop Star Project it is. Aside from wanting to do music again but not wanting to be known as the fat one, I also want to walk the London Loop in a relatively short amount of time next summer. And I'd really like all my old clothes to fit me. That is all.

Cross trainer could be the solution for you if you don't have a lot of time in your day for workouts. This is because an elliptical trainer involves the upper body as well.
