Today I arose with a new attitude. I CAN, I WILL, I AM! This conscious effort for a lifestyle change will not defeat me - I've already won! So I got on my Total Gym for 30 min and also sprinted and danced on the treadmill for 30 minutes. I have to make it fun or it won't last for me! I LOVED it and I'm now energized and ready to tackle this day! It's going to be a blessed one indeed! I seek the BEAUTY in everyday - regardless of any obstacles that may attempt to darken my path! My ray of LIGHT is beaming too bright!~smile

Note to self- aim for 45 grams of protein daily (at least keep it under 66) and higher fat.
lean mass=131 lbs /2=65.5 grams protein that I should consume daily

This morning I was afraid to hop on the scale - fear that I'd gained because I assumed I ate way too much fat and protein yesterday - apparently NOT! I'm down to 230.6. I love being able to key in what I may eat to help me plan my day so as not to exceed my daily goals. I'm really looking forward to getting this weight off again and being in "Onederland" again! LOVE it! Eat Fat To Lose Fat! I've also just joined the Cardio for at least 20 minutes/day, Mon thru Fri - beginning tomorrow April 15-May 1. Something that's easily attainable!~smile

Per http://www.healthstatus.com/cgi-bin/calc/calculator.cgi
Body Fat Estimation:
Metric versions of the calculators available here:
Results:
Using your measurements of a 35.5 inches waist and weight of 230 pounds your body fat percentage we calculated using FOUR different methods. Your body fat estimates are 88.87 % using the U.S. Army body fat algorithm, or
0.63 % using the U.S. Marine body fat algorithm, or44.59 % using the U.S. Navy body fat algorithm, or
28.80 % using the formula developed by the YMCA.
These methods are not as accurate as a water displacement test, but is usually within 1-3% for most people. If you have a very small waist, it will show a low value. On the other hand, if you carry all your extra weight around your middle, you may have an elevated percentage. Please note that having this extra weight in the middle is a high risk factor for heart disease and stroke. The waist to hip ratio calculator can give you more information.
The average body fat percentage for U.S. females is around 32%, with the ideal at 22%. Athletic females should be around 15-20%. You could have an eating disorder if you are below 10%. Remember these are guidelines; your physician should help you determine the ideal weight and body fat for you.
The HealthStatus.com calculators are incredibly handy to have, but for body fat and calorie burning, the best they can do is provide estimates based on scientific algorithms and studies. If you are looking for ways to increase your own calorie burning and fat loss, you should look at our High Intensity Interval Training ( HIIT ) workout.
