So the first week of May I set out for the doctors had a physical. All things are great except he says, "You're fat, lose weight and you'll be in perfect health." Knowing this all ready and setting out after a physcially demanding job I'm after I check out what methods will help me the most.
I get checked out by the company I'm trying for and told I need to be at the most 24% body. I was around 34%. Having a deadline set by myself for the end of Oct. to reach this goal. I decided to do a mix of heavy strength training and intense cardio in my free time.
Here it is July 26th. I just taped myself and punched them into the calulator and well I am now 23% body fat! Not at the 'HAWT' line yet, but holy crap! 11% down so far!
I'm not much of a story teller, but I wanted to share a little about myself. Now having reached this mark, my goal has been reset, and I am marching on.
Weight means nothing to me, I am looking at the body fat % line only.
I hope the rest of you can find it within yourselves to be as dedicate, motivated, highspeed, and hardcore as I've been these last several weeks. I have made a complete life style change as to what I'm eating. I am not dieting. I have changed my life to be a healthier me for my family, for my future. Good luck, and God speed.

The short version: He has 11% less fat on his body than he did in May, which means he has superceded his goal of a 10% reduction. Now, he is looking to reduce it even more.0 -
