how are you all today? :drinker:0 -
Hey! I don't join these things normally, but recently I sort of 'fell off' a bit and wasn't really tracking my progress (or, regress?) until I realized that my tummy was looking poojey and my weight had slowly and steadily increased from 125.6 to 136.4 lbs :noway: from May to August. I am down to about 134 (on my TOM right now). Are we doing inches lost as well? I think that would give us a more inclusive look at our progress.
So here's the other stuff
Starting Weight: 134.6
January 1st Goal Weight: 124.6 (8.5 if I lose 1/2 lb a week, but I'll round up to an even 10 to challenge myself )
Ultimate Goal Weight: 118 (or 19% body fat)
Inches Goal: 1-2 inches off the following: abdomen, butt, inner thigh
Hobbies: designing and implementing workout programs, hiking, reading, finding obscure music artists
Interesting Fact: I'm the first in my family to pursue a PhD0 -
hey guys, so if you all want to weigh in with your weight, this is WEEK 1, so lets get cracking! :flowerforyou:0
