Border

While being in Italy, I discovered that my body passed one of those important psychological borders. My weight is above 100Kg, and more exactly my measurement showed 100.7Kg. When passing such a border action is required: in this case a celebration could be appropriate, but I am opting for a change in habits, such as to pass this border once again, but in the other direction this time. The plan includes:

  • eating a lot of vegetables and fruit, on top of all the other things I already eat
  • limiting the quantity of food. A rule prescribes that one should finish a meal with the same feeling as finishing an intercourse: satisfied, but wanting for more.
  • more movement and sport. I will bike, play football and type faster.
  • eating regularly (i.e. following a rule, the best one being when you are hungry)
  • reading one copy of the magazine Libelle
A plan needs a goal to justify itself. My goal, who will keep me motivated in the coming months is: to have a weight of 95Kg by the end of the year. To add some scientific method, I am allowing a tolerance of +/- 5%. For the repeatability of the experiment, the target weight in December will be measured with a different weighter than the one used for measuring the starting point of 100.7Kg, and in a different location.
When target will be met, the axiom of Mass Conservation will be violated.
