Jan 2, 2014 Weigh In - Day 1

Jan 2, 2014

Nothing like putting it out there. Here you go my Day 1 measurements

Height: 5 ft 2 inches
Weight: 150 lbs 
Age: 49

Waist: 34.25"
Hips: 40"
Chest: 37"

BMI: 27.3
Lean Body Mass: 92.3 lbs
% Body Fat: 38.1%

My lowest measurements last year was first reached on April 16th. From that point on it was up and down till Sept. Once Sept came around the weight began to creep up and so did my stress. Makes sense as that is when Dopey training hit full swing and life began to throw me curve balls. So what did I do...went back to what was familiar and comfortable - emotional eating. 

Height: 5 ft 2 inches
Weight: 135.4 lbs 
Age: 48

Waist: 31.5"
Hips: 35.75"
Chest: 35"

BMI: 24.8
Lean Body Mass: 94.7 lbs
% Body Fat: 30%

When I analyzed my numbers from last year, on the average I maintained the following:

Weight: 138.6 lbs

Waist: 31.6"
Hips: 36.25"
Chest: 35.25"

BMI: 25.4
Lean Body Mass: 96.5 lbs
% Body Fat: 30.3%

What this is telling me is that my body likes this mass. I am my best, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. I am carrying more muscle, leaner body mass, and just enough fat to keep me happy. In other words, it's my ideal set point.

So that will be my 2014 goal. My timeframe will be 6 months.  If I can achieve it by June 2, 2014 than I'm golden!

My next step will be to maintain the rest of the year. If I continue to reduce my body mass than all the better. 

On your mark, get set, GO!!!
