This journal is here to support you as you take meaningful steps toward your goals. Remember, the aim isn’t to reach your ultimate target in 12 weeks, but to become a stronger, more focused version of yourself along the way.
Big goals (like losing 10 stone or running a marathon) take time, so break them down. Use these 12 weeks to set a realistic, achievable target and start building the habits that get you there.
If you need some help choosing a target for your journal, here are some of my articles that may help:
- Starting to run – Couch to 5k advice
- Choosing a target weight – Considering your target or goal weight
- Choosing a weight loss plan – 12 plans compared and discussed
- A selection of diet and weight loss information and guides
- Considering weight loss medications – an outline of the medications available
- Obese and need help choosing an exercise? – Obese exercise ideas and tips
- Non-scale targets to consider – Non-scale targets and victories
Do you need to buy anything before you start? Here are some things you might need:
- The best scales to weigh yourself, whatever your weight
- Exercise clothing for plus-size women
- Choosing the right shoes for your workout
- A full-length mirror to help you see changes
- A good water bottle to stay hydrated
- Food diaries

- A cheap tape measure for measurements
Now that you hopefully have a target or aim for your journal, it is time to get started. Remember to tag me on social media @justaveragejen and let me know how you are getting on. Every week will have a QR code for you to scan for support and articles that may help that week.
