My journey of weight loss

Weigh In Day

Other than the fact that i am feeling bloated today.... things are going well, I lost that .5 pound so i can officially say that i have lost 40 pounds when someone asks... thats a good feeling.

I also went and found the book where i used to keep my stats from when i went to Curves... which never seemed to do very much for me, but looking back i think i can use them to give me an idea of what i have lost. The last time i have records is from March 06, but i was the same weight so this is what i got....

Bust Was 49" Now 46" Down 3"
Waist Was 46" Now 41" Down 5"
Abs Was 57" Now 45.5" Down 12"
Hips Was 57" Now 53" Down 4"
Weight Was 285 Now 245 Down 40lbs
BMI Was 40 Now36 Down 4
Thigh Was 30" Now26" Down 4"
Body Fat Was 43.5% Now33.3% Down 10%

Now i got my body fat from a website that i found http://www.healthcentral.com/cholesterol/home-body-fat-test-2774-143.html#accurate it lets you calculate it and claims to be very close to what you would get using a machine. so if its right i am very happy with my losses. esp my weight, bmi and body fat!

So i also start school tomorrow its a long day i start at 8:30 and go to 9:30pm i do have some time off between classes but still... we'll see how it goes.

Also i went for a run last night i think i will go again tonight... i'm feeling a tad stressed right now.
