So today is Day 1 of the TT Transformation Challenge. I made an appointment to get my body comp done at school last night, and I was pleased to find out I was 11.9% bodyfat! That's not bad for a femme. I was also intrigued because I thought at 12%, I'd have already lost the flab on my hips and thighs, but there's still some there. I then realized that these are typically the trouble spots for women so it would be the last fat to go.
If the body comp is accurate, I have approximately 16.3 lbs of fat. I'm estimating that a loss of 6 of those pounds should put me right where I want to be. I'll have enough fat to be healthy, but enough gone to make me lighter and lookin' good!
The personal trainer guy that gave me the body comp was sort of shocked at my readout. He said he never sees girls (or women) who have such low bf and 65% water (5% above the recommended upper threshhold). He even said the more water you are, the more accurate the results. Wow.
So that leaves me thinking that if I lose 6 pounds in the next 12 weeks, .5 pounds per week, I'd probably be at about 9% body fat.
This should be quite an adventure :)
I picked up a newspaper during lunch so I can get my Day 1 photos tonight. I had to go to 2 separate newspaper machines since the first one stole my 50 cents. Aaarrggghh!!
