NSV!!!

mikki1987

I've been trying to lose weight for a while now. I started last October in preparation for my sister's wedding. I ate sensibly and upped my exercise but wasn't consistent with it. My sister got married 20th December last year. At this point I had lost 17lbs - starting at 226lbs, I went to the wedding at 209lbs.

I joined MFP properly last week - at 205lbs.

My NSV happened today. I had my BF% calculated, and it's 27.5%. When i started back in October it was 39%. That's a massive change. I'm so happy right now! My hip to waist ratio is in the low risk range and I'm feeling so much healthier and happier. Obviously, still a ways to go, but knowing that my health is less at risk is a massive incentive to keep at it!

That is great! I will be so happy when I get my BMI into the 20s. Congratulations!
