I'm happy.
And since I'm feeling happy I'm going to post something that I have always been embarrassed about, but now I feel empowered.
At the beginning this journey, in July 2011, I tipped the scale at 316 lbs. 50 +% body fat.
Today I weigh 269 and am down to 31.8% body fat.
Total loss so far... 47lbs. Big difference.
Best of all...my blood sugar is normal and I'm not on my Diabetes meds anymore. Hallelujah!
My goal is to be at 25% body fat, and I'd like to be at 195 lbs. which is perfect for me, being 6ft tall and all.
Do-able right? Totally!!
