So the results are in.
The starting point of my journey has been measured on the scales and with measuring tape. And i cannot believe i am putting this all in a blog for the whole blinking internet to see. I hope this gives me the motivation to persist and reach my goal (and motivate others too!)
Weight: 67.8kg (150.2 lbs or 10st 9.4 lbs depending on your system)
BMI:24.31
Waist: 91.5cm
Right Thigh: 59.5cm
Left Thigh: 57cm
Chest: 95.5
Picture: Ok NOT confident enough to put one up, perhaps when i have made progress!
Verdict - I'm a fatty lumpkin. Urgh. Lumpy Bumpy body. But think looking preggars when definitely not. This, THIS, is my starting point. Let us take a moment to look at the figures. BMI is 24.31...25+ is considered overweight. My waist is 91.5cm, healthy is considered below 80cm. My waist to hip ratio is 0.87, again healthy is considered 0.85 or below for women. So it is obvious that really i'm not all that healthy. I stand to gain much by training and eating right.
To that end, the last few days has included batch cooking and a meal plan has been actioned. The house has been decluttered, a clean and tidy house means one thing to get less stressed over. I've pruned, preened and cleaned myself, I might be a tubby little lady at the moment, but their is little point changing the inside if outside you look in a mirror and still feel miserable about what you see. I'm trying to look after myself better in all aspect of my life and that includes looking at myself and feeling ok about what i see.
At fairly regular intervals I will post updates on my journey to transform this lard arse to lean machine. At some point i will get my friend (a gym trainer) to take additional body measurements, including, fat%, Blood pressure, heart rate etc.
And so on that note, it is time to hit the gym and get a sweat on!!
