Happy New Year!
I have made some slight additions to my diet and exercise regimens in this New Year.
I have made some slight additions to my diet and exercise regimens in this New Year.
First and foremost, I started supplementing with MCT oil this week - one tablespoon twice daily. I will be posting on the purported benefits of MCT oil supplementation as well as the results of my n=1 MCT oil experiment in the near future.
Secondly, I have upped my gym attendance, and tonight, I am attending an orientation at a nearby martial arts facility, which is doing a "Biggest Winner" contest.
For $50, you sign up for the "Biggest Winner" 8 week program, which begins on January 16th. They weigh you before the start of the program and at its completion; the person who has lost the most weight in the interim wins some cash. I'm not doing it for the cash - I am doing it for the highly discounted "cage fitness", "brazilian jujitsu" and "applied self defense" classes that you can take for no additional charge during that 8 week period. Assuming that I go twice each week, that is 16 fitness classes for $50. I am trying something new and interesting, and I am excited. I fell asleep last night, with the "Kung Fu Fighting" song in my head...
I weighed myself this morning, to get an official 2012 starting weight.
Here are my stats:
198 pounds; 14.5" neck circumference; 6" wrist circumference; 43" bust; 37.5" waist; 46" hips.

I lost 33.5 pounds last year, and several dress sizes. I feel better and look better. I am three pounds away from being at my high school graduation weight. 2011 was a really trying year. I wasn't able to focus on my own health goals the way I aspired to at the beginning of the year, when I started LCHF. Given all of the crazy stuff that we dealt with, I am happy to have lost this weight, and I look forward to becoming healthier and trimmer in 2012.
This year, my goal is to lose 40 pounds , and to get myself toned up. My weight has not changed much since I squeaked in under 200 pounds in October 2011. It is time to shake things up a bit.
WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS FOR THIS NEW YEAR?
