2 Success Posts In 1 Day? Whattt?!?!

  • Popular Post

Well, I did it y'all!! My Body Fat is now down to 18.2%. At 330 Lbs, it was nothing but a wild dream to ever think I'd be right here where I am today. I am floored, seriously!!!

I usually only check on Sundays, however for the last few days I've been feeling incredibly thin. Thinner that I have yet and so far. So I checked and wow... My goal was 19%.. so I one upped it.. heehee!! I have a feeling it will even go lower, which is fine. As long as I don't go below 13.8% I will be fine (for my age group that should be the minimum) but DEFINITELY no lower than 11.3%.

On to the next phase of my life y'all - just to maintain my current frame and get my head in the books. Yes, this Semester I'm starting my schooling to become a Professional Fitness Expert and Nutritionist. I will specialize in the Super Obese and Bariatric patients. I am SO looking forward to this new chapter in my life.

My all the goodness bring blessings to each and every one of you. Keep your chin up! It takes time to get here where I am... patience my darlings. :) I'm going on 2 years post op in September.

This is probably the best thing anyone has ever said to me, so thank you. Seriously... it's taking a lot of courage for me to do this. I often wonder if I'll be considered good enough. :wub: I guess that's just the eternal fat girl in me talking.

Do it!!! I think everyone should always know where they stand with body fat. For me Goal is Fitness and Body Fat related. Weight is a whole other beast.
