Day 30 on Power 90 (pics)

Options
Today marks my 30th day doing P90. I've lost collectively 6.25 inches, the most impressive being my waist where I've lost THREE INCHES. It may not sound like a lot but it feels like a lot. My pants fit looser and that feels awesome. As for my weight, I've only lost 2 pounds. I keep trying to tell myself that there are more indicators than just weight; it's a tough habit to shake. But an encouraging fact is my decrease in body fat. I've lost 1.5% of my body fat from Day 0 to now.

Another 60 to go! Woohoo!

    Awesome effort there. Can i ask what method you are using to measure body fat? We have a machine in our fitness centre but i know its not very accurate (tells me i'm obese :P). Ideally i'd like to use calipers but we don't have any :(

    Just measuring tape and a couple equations.

    I made an excel spreadsheet so that I don't have to the calculations over and over. Just plug and chug!

    You look great!!! I have INSANITY (same company as P90) and can't wait to start it. I'm working first on building up my cardio so I can keep up with the vids. Thanks for the motivation!

    Good job! That's very inspiring. I don't know why I'm so scared of trying p90x? I have 9 years in the military and p90x intiminates me!
