After traveling for a month or so. About 112, probably 23% BF
Blah. Life got in the way and I'm right where I was three months ago!
Maintain while vacationing in paradise for the next few weeks! Then, lean up and re-shape everything!
Goal (Long):
By the end of the summer I want to be leaner and tighter, and then I will spend a few months very carefully and slowly upping my cals and lifting hard to work on my shoulders and lats to gain some overall balance and a more hour-glass (versus a spoon) figure. Next summer I will look visibly different!
Long term- I want to maintain around 110, with 17-19% body fat.
I tested last at 18% on a handheld bf tester, but I don't believe it's that low. Probably more like 20% still.
Thanks so much for the compliments! I'm glad I can be inspiration for you. And you're right, body comp does matter way more. I think you look great, and I LOVE your main profile picture! Good luck with your goals, keep up the hard work!
Thank you. I'd say it's just as hard or harder (because you've been out of school so long) as the EIT exam. I started studying about 6 months before the exam. Just get all those practice question books and keep going through them. Tell him good luck! It's quite an accomplishment and pretty nice to have a few initial behind your name.
Hi, thanks so much for the add. You are making great progress! Yeah, we do have similar measurements :) You weight a lot less than me though. I still need to kill some fat!
Hi Eminva!! You look great in your profile photo. Thanks for visiting my space to share your support. Girl, I really do soak up all the optimism and positivity, and I only hope that I share the same with others. The body fat is stubborn, but one day…one day I’ll see those muscles. Continue to train hard and reach for your goals. You can only go from great to greater. Have a beautiful weekend. :) T
There may be no better feeling than the one you get after a good workout with weights. Try to push yourself to be the best that you can be and you will be amazed at the changes and the speed at which they can occur.
I wish you much success in achieving your goals.
