MAY 17, 2009 - WEEK 9 RESULTS

Beginning weight - 150 / BMI 26.57 / Body Fat 42.9%
Current weight - 143.5 / BMI 25.42 / Body Fat 41.3%
Goal weight - 125
Goal date - September 20, 2009

Here is an average of my daily food intake for this past week:

1420 Calories
109.4g Fat (69.3%)
88.7g Protein
20.3g Carbs
9.4g Fiber
11g net carbs, of which 8.3g came from veggies
I lost 2.5 pounds this week!

Since starting, I have lost 4.3% of my total body weight. I need to lose another 12.3%. I have lost 26% of the 25 pounds I need to lose.

The weight loss has been slow, and I've also been keeping track of my measurements on fitday. I measure every Sunday.

Neck 13.75 - 13.00 = 3/4 inch down
Bicep 11.75 - 11.25 = 1/2 inch down
Forearm 9.00 + 9.00 = same
Chest 38.25 - 37.25 = 1 inch down
Midriff 33.00 - 31.25 = 1-3/4 inches down
Waist 31.50 - 30.00 = 1-1/2 inches down
Navel 39.25 - 36.00 = 3-1/4 inches down (the heart health zone, so this is great!)
Hips 42.00 - 40.50 = 1-1/2 inches down
Thigh 24.50 - 23.00 = 1-1/2 inches down
Calf 14.50 - 14.25 = 1/4 inch down

Total lost this week - 2 inches
Total lost since starting - 14 inches

I am finally seeing some good weight loss! At Colette's advice, I dropped my calories down to the lowest end of minimum, and, as soon as I did that, I immediately started losing. What a relief!

I am taking my supplements, drinking 64 oz. or more of water each day, and walking 2.5 miles on a treadmill at 3 mph at least 3 times per week. I do a Pilates class once per week, and a Hatha Yoga class once per week. My doctor has ordered me to start my weight training, which I will do as soon as my most recent testosterone implant incision heals.
