Met with my nutritionist, Anne Moselle of LifeStyleRX in Livermore this morning. I started working with her on June 2nd, 2008 with the sole purpose of shaving my body fat %. I had to inventory my eating for several days prior to our first meeting so she could see what I ate. At the first meeting she set-up a program for me that included the Body Bugg. Ever since that first day I have been laser focused on my diet (not being too strict) and it is paying off. Inputting all my foods everyday really helps me focus on what I am eating. I upload the info. from the Body Bugg to the BB web site and it tells me how many calories I have burned. I then input the foods I have eaten and then it spits out my Protein, Carb and Fat % for the day. That is how I get the numbers I post on this blog.
Anyhoo, after the Bod Pod test this morning here are the results of all my effort to date:
- A loss of 10.5 pounds of pure body fat (that's 2.5 lbs per month of fat loss)
- A gain of 1+ pounds of lean muscle (all the weight training)
- A body fat % drop of 3.7 %
I am stoked. I am down to 208 pounds and I am in the best physical shape I have ever been in. And this is BEFORE I start marathon and Ironman training.
My goal is to lose 15 more pounds of pure fat by my Ironman race in June 2009.
However, I have to say that this program is the hardest thing I have ever done. I am not restricted from anything I want to eat. The key is moderation. And the Type A guy that I am, moderation is not easy. :-)
More later.
