Two days of Asylum left..Closer to goal...

Bottom line: Lost 1.4 pounds this week

Weight/bodyfat this morning: 133.0 pounds, 14.7% fat
Weight/bodyfat last week:      134.4 pounds, 15.5% fat

Doing the math on that means that I lost 1.3 pounds of fat, and 0.1 pounds of lean mass. So this does tell me that putting more protein in the diet (all vegan, of course) and doing 5 small meals a day has been a good thing.

The math also shows that to hit my goal of 12% bodyfat, if I lose only fat, my target weight would be 127 pounds, assuming I have no change in lean mass. My God, that sounds like a featherweight, but I'm only 5' 4", so I guess that's reasonable.

These last bits of fat are not easy to lose! I've been doing the Asylum workouts in the mornings and doing 3 miles on the treadmill in the evening, rarely going beyond the 29 daily WeightWatchers points. Total calories burned from workouts is typically around 800/day, and has been as high as 1200. So even with a butt-load of activity and light, healthy eating, it is a s-l-o-w process!! But it's a steady process.

And that's the key. Now where's my coffee?
