Every Friday I will take my measurements and report in.
Here are today's AWESOME results!
Height: 5'4.5" (obviously not going to change)
Weight: 174.4 (previously 179.8) for a loss of 5.4 pounds.
Bust: 42" (previously 43") for a loss of 1"
Upper Arm: 12.7" (previously 13.5") for a loss of 0.8"
Waist: 39" (previously 42") for a loss of 3 AMAZING inches!
Hips: 42" (previously 42.5") for a loss of 0.5"
Thighs: 24.2" (previously 25") for a loss of 0.8"
BMI: 29.5 (previously 30.4) for a loss of 0.9 points
How am I progressing at my goals?
1. Goal weight is 135. I have lost 5.4 of the 44.8 pounds I need to lose. 12% done! :)
2. Have a BMI below 25. Lost 0.9 of the 5.4 points I need to lose. 16.6% done!
3. Have a body fat percentage below 24%. Previously estimated at about 42%, is now down to about 39%. Lost 3% of 18% I need to lose. 16.6% done!
4. To be physically fit. I am just starting to feel energetic and good again. I hope this means I will be able to find the energy to get on a regular exercise plan again. That said, over the past week I have increased my average daily "steps" by over 1000 steps per day, just by walking more. (I have a FitBit to help keep track of my daily movements.)
5. To feel comfortable in my clothes. This has been the most amazing transformation for one week! I am more than happy and surprised about this. I have lost 3 (not a typo) inches from my waist in one week! My jeans fit! I'm not sure whether to attribute this to weight loss or less bloating/swelling/inflammation caused by gluten and Candida yeast. Probably some combination of the three.
6. To look decent in a swimsuit and lingerie. Okay...not there yet, but on my way and smiling about that!
7. To have enough energy/stamina to play actively, for a prolonged amount of time, with my kids. My energy is returning! Today, I feel better than I have in months! I feel so good, it's hard to describe how much better I feel.
I am so grateful and blessed to be on this journey! Loving it!
