Ok so 5 months ago I was at 211lbs. I didnt like the way I looked in the mirror and made some lifestyle changes.
Recently I had a biometric testing done to see where I stand now......
After a 12hr fast....
Height 5'11.5"
weight 178.2
BMI 24.6
BP 137/90
blood sugar 79
total cholesterol 148
LDL 88
HDL 48
Triglycerides 64
bodyfat 16%
I'm pretty happy with the numbers considering that my BP before when I was heavy was 155/100 & my cholesterol was 170.
I never was much of a meat eater to begin with and now I've gone full vegetarian and drink nothing but water, eat oatmeal for breakfast every day and jog 4 miles a day, which took about 2 months of soreness to get to that level...
Next week I was going to join a local gym and start hitting the weights. My goal is to get my body fat % down to 10% or less....
