It’s On And It Ain’t Pretty

I had my fitness assessment at Equinox yesterday and to say it was ugly is an understatement.   I was expecting the weight number but the body fat percentage took me by surprise.   I have a bit more work to do than I anticipated.

So here are my official starting numbers as of 1/2/17:

  • Weight:      241.6 lbs
  • Body Fat:  29.5% (!!!!)

Again, my goal weight is 200 lbs or less by 12/17/17.   Let’s add to the goal of reducing my body fat to 20% with a stretch goal of 15%

We all have to start somewhere, right?   I have my first training session on Thursday at 7 AM.   In the meantime, time to clean up the diet and work on portion control.  More about that later.
