    20.5
    I have tried to calculate my body fat % online but the answers varied widely. I think it's probably around 26-28%. I'd love to find out for sure.
    I do know that I lowered my fasting blood sugar from 108 to 82 and my trglycerides from 217 to 52. My cholesterol, HDL and LDL are all great. My BMI was only around 23.5 when I found out I had prediabetes and determined to lose at least 10 lbs (also to get back to pre-pregnancy weight). It worked, I reversed my prediabetes and lowered my triglycerides. I do think I probably need to maintain a lower weight and a more low-carb/high-protein diet than the average person because of my diabetes risk. (Both parents have it.)

    I'm at 23.4, down 71 pounds. I've moved to maintenance. The BMI is a little higher than most, but after years of being obese, I am happy at my achievement.
