But of course I still have to look out after my Health and over-all well being. Sometimes that is one thing we kept on overlooking. Just because we are happy with what we are doing doesn't mean it is justifiable to do.
The idea of losing weight has been lurking on my mind these past 2 months and I think it's time to put that plan into action.
I'm really serious with it since it is one of the problems that I am staring to face ever since I gained weight is, I find it hard to find clothes that will suit my body frame. I hate it. I cannot wear the same clothes I used to wear. Darn!
Well to start my plan, I bought a weighing scale. According to Wikipedia, it is a measuring instrument determining the weight or mass of an object.
At first I was clueless as to what kind of weighing scale to use. I've been looking for a weigh scale that can actually measure my weight plus my Body Mass Index.
What does the Body Mass Index has to do with my weight loss program. BODY MASS INDEX is defined as the individual's body weight divided by the square of his or her height. It also assess how much an individual's body weight departs from what is normal or desirable for a person of his or her height.
How to calculate your own Body Mass Index?
SI UNITS BMI = mass(kg)/ (height(meter))2
