Pokemon Go Weight Loss Challenge

Ok so 2 days ago I decided I'm TOO FAT and ready to go back to a better weight. I don't have a ton of time and like to play Pokemon Go so I thought it'd be a good opportunity to mix fun with exercise. On top of doing that I'm NOW going to fast between 8 PM & 12AM. During my 8 hour window I will try to consume all my daily calories.

Starting Weight 7/29 244 lbs
During day 1 I walked around 3 miles starting XP 16,136 ending at 38,593XP. Walking from 6AM to 8AM.

Game Updates:

So I hadn't played Pokemon Go since around October of last year thus hadn't seen all the new features. Over the past three days I've done 3 RAID Battles...alone. But did win 2 battles over Croconaw.

Nothing else has really been ground breaking. I'm really hoping to use gameification with fasting to lose massive amounts of weight. Looking for any support or recommendations moving forward. Stay tuned....

That's awesome!

I agree -- anyway that you can make the routine enjoyable (the gamification part) is good in my book. I was doing a bit of the same until it was too hot (FL heat). Since there's a lot of stop and go with the game I would maybe suggest taking a HIIT route with the exercise aka if you see something to catch try a light jog versus just walking to it - that way you can spike your heart rate and really get things moving!

Thanks for the advice! You play Pokemon Go?

A while back but not so much anymore ever since I dug out my 3DS and grabbed up Y. Been getting my fix on that but been considering getting back into GO to see what all has changed.
