6 Week Update

Well considering I was not consistent with my workouts I am pretty pleased with my initial results.

I did stick to increasing my water intack and decreasing my soda drinking. I added drinking green tea daily and watched what I ate and practiced portion control.

I worked out perhaps 1 - 2 days per week, mainly strength training. While on Christmas break I worked out 5 days doing 40 minutes of strength training each day using > Personal Training with Jackie: Power Circuit Training.

Last week I did 2 days of Jillian Michaels 30 day Shred.

I've lost 4 lbs and 4 inches since 11/29/09.

I've been keeping these stats since 12/3/09 and here they are:

1/9/10

Body Mass Index: 25.1
Body Fat Percent: 28.4
Lean Body Mass: 98.2 lb

12/3/09:

Height: 5'2"

Body Mass Index: 25.3
Body Fat Percent: 30.4
Lean Body Mass: 96.1 lb

I'm going to be trying CNI's Fast7 which is designed to jump start your weight loss. CORE 4 is designed to tackle the core area of the body, which is one of the most important areas to stimulate weight loss, restore energy and promote optimal health. The core area is my problem area, lol.

Body Fat Estimator

If you don't have a body fat tester or a scale that can measure your body fat, here is formular to help you calculate your body fat:

weight x 1.082 = nude factor

nude factor + 94.42 = weight factor

waist measurement x 4.150 = waist factor

weight factor - waist factor = lean body mass

weight - lean body mass = body fat

body fat / weight x 100 = body fat %

Example:

Weight 138 lbs x 1.082 = 149.32

149.32 + 94.42 = 243.74

Waist 35" x 4.150 = 145.25

243.74 - 145.25 = 98.49

138 - 98.49 = 39.51

39.51 / 138 x 100 = 28.60%
