Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 Jami, You can email me if you need a buddy. I'm somewhat similar but like you I'm just working on things... I've completed the challenge twice but each time regressed back to where I started. I've never been really overweight and always very active but I'm trying to get really lean right now. I'm in week six, so far I've lost 7 pounds and 2 inches in my waist and hips... my bf is somewhere around 22% although I get sporadic readings. I'm really working on figuring out what works for MY body, not someone elses, and it's really cool trying different things. Right now I'm journalling my food info and working out with a trainer. Let me know your info, you can email me direct at heathershu24@... good luck! heather --------------------------------- Messenger with Voice. PC-to-Phone calls for ridiculously low rates. Quote
Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 Hey Jami, I think I meet the criteria. I consider myself to be about 5-10 lbs overweight, although I focus less on scale weight now. I started my challenge at the beginning of Jan at about 24% bf and now I'm about 17-18% (havent measured for 2 weeks). I believe I am endo-meso (I gain lean mass easily, have broad shoulders/frame, I also store fat easily if I'm not careful with what I eat). I've never been anorexic or bulimic, but if you leave me to my own devices I can eat a LOT of food (have had a tendency to binge/have cravings). If you think I can help, throw some questions at me! ;-) > Hi there, I need to talk to someone female off list that had following stats at some point and overcame it: > > 5-10 lbs overweight > mid-20% bodyfat > endo-mesomorph bodytype > no eating disorder (no anorexia or bulemia, but overeater/overportioner ok), present or past Quote
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 Thanks so much ! Your progress sounds fantastic!! I've gotta a bunch of really good responses to my email and basically it boils down to: PATIENCE. Something I have to buy or something because I don't have a lot on my own. Haha. I've heard from others that are very similar to me and they did exactly what I'm doing and they got results, it just took 2 challenges to get those last pounds off. That's fine, I needed to hear that to settle down my expectations. Jami > > Jami, > You can email me if you need a buddy. I'm somewhat similar but like you I'm just working on things...
