Weigh-in and Body Fat Calculator

After Christmas/New Year gorging, I weigh 15 stone and 3lbs. Not awful but a good target weight is to lose 2 stone and get to 13 stone by the end of this year.

Just to measure to previous weights, I managed to get to 15 stone in October 2014, but then put on weight through November/December and was then 15 stone and 2lbs in January 2015.

My body fat percentage today is: 50.7%. That's a little bit scary.

Whilst calculating my body fat I've also had to do some measurements so:

This was January 2014:

Arms: 16 inches

Hips: 51 inches

Waist: 41.5 inches

Thigh: 30 inches

July 2014:

Arms 15 - loss of one inch

Hips 47.5 - loss of 3.5 inches

Waist 38 - loss of 3.5 inches

Legs 26 - loss of 4 inches!

January 2016:

Neck: 13.6"

Waist: 37" - loss of 1 inch

Hips: 49" - increase of 1.5 inches

Arms: 14" - loss of 1 inch

Thighs: 26" - same

Another Year, Another Diet

Last year, although I did increase my weight at times, I was down to 15 stone exactly on Christmas Day; something I was fairly proud of!

My New Year's Resolution this year is to lose 2 stone in one year. I think that's fairly doable. Now I have learned a lot about food, calories and intake ideas, I have a few rules this year:

1. Use of vibro-plate machine for 10 minutes every morning
2. Netball 3 times a week
3. 7 minute workout 4 times a week
4. Have a plate full of veggies and only a small amount of meat
5. Only drinking water and green tea
6. Use a smaller plate for portion control at evening meal

I'm going to weigh myself in tomorrow morning (although I don't think it's going to look too great - gorging over the new year!) and I'm also going to complete all my body fat percentages. This year I will be tracking body fat percentage and weight, more than calorie intake. I will be doing that via MyFitnessPal instead, just to keep track of what I'm eating each day.
