I am kinda surprised that the scale reading dropped so much. I weigh myself everyday in the morning- or at least I try to. I only record weight once or twice a week. Watching the scale every day helps me get an idea of my day to day norm. The recent readings have actually been closer to 146/147; however, I was wearing more clothes on since I am too wimpy to weigh in without them when it's sooo cold in the morning. I estimate that my clothes add about 1 or 2 lbs. I also have to average several readings each time because the scale will read differently depending on where the scale sits on the bare floor. When I first read the reading this morning, it said 142. I thought it was a fluke, but it stayed around 142 as I retested it. I went with the highest reading because I am guessing it is the most accurate, if nothing else I'd rather lean more conservative than liberal with measurements so that I don't fall short of my goal.

Something that I am excited about is how Jas recently helped me get current body fat percentage readings. Using sewing tape and several body tape measurements. The last time I did this was back in Septemeber. I was about 156lbs and my body fat percentage was about 33% according to the Navy formula and my BMI was 27.4. Therefore my body composition was 51.48 lbs fat/ 104.52 lbs muscle. Now I weigh less than 146 (I used that weight at when calculating because that was the current average a few days ago.) This means that my body fat percentage is about 31% according to the Navy formula, my BMI is 24.6 and my body composition is 45.26 lbs fat/ 100.74 lbs muscle. So not only have I lost about 10 lbs overall, I have lost 6lbs of fat. Woo Hoo!!!!This is an approximation of what I no longer carry on me. :)

Again I am kinda surprised because yesterday I didn't do so well with caloric intake. I had 2 bagels with lox and cream cheese. Oh they were sooooo gooooddd! (Hubby, babe and I had a special lunch with his mom; it was soooo worth it! :) ) I remember hearing that OCCASIONALLY eating a lot more than normal is ok because if you are weight training and such it helps boost metabolism. So I am going to be careful now to not make that the norm, but I am happily surprised with the current reading. My goal is that much closer. :-D
