So today was my three moth checki-in since starting on MFP just after Christmas and I wanted to share the changes that I've seen in my body. You have to remember that when I started this, I hadn't really exercised in about 7 years, my diet consisted largely of fast food lunches and portion control that was out of control. I got involved with one of the weight loss challenges that started at the first of the year and is just ending as a way to push myself.

And here are the results so far.

Starting Weight: 251
Neck: 17.75
Chest: 47.5
Waist: 48
Hips: 43.5
Thighs: 27
Arm: 15
Body Fat: 32.2%
BMI: 33.6

My current stats are:

Current Weight: 210.2
Neck: 16.25
Chest: 44
Waist: 40
Hips: 40
Thighs: 24.25
Arm: 13.3
Body Fat: 27.9%
BMI: 29.2


Changes from December 28th to March 10th:

Total Weight Lost: 40.8 lbs
Total Inches Lost: 21"
Neck: -1.5"
Chest: -3.5"
Waist: -8"
Hips: -3.5"
Thighs: -2.75"
Arm: -1.75"
Body Fat: -4.3%
BMI: -4.4

All i can say, is that If I can make these changes, so can you! I've been inspired mpby my MFP friends and the stories that I've read here, so I wanted to contribute my own story.

I'm not finished and still have about 20 pounds to my goal weight as well as targets to get stronger and fitter...so it is still w work in progress.
