SO, I have been feeling a bit on the heavy side for the past month or so. I was ok with it at first because I had a baby this past December but lately it's been making me feel a bit down. I was playing on the computer and I found a link at WebMd, and calculated my BMI and did the whole assesment and this is what it told me:
Your Summary
Current Weight
162 pounds
Goal Weight
140 pounds
Recomended
111.3 to 149.5 pounds
Body Mass Index (BMI)
26.9(Mine)
23.2(Goal)
18.5 to 24.9(Recomended)
Your current weight is higher than the scientifically established norms. It corresponds to a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 26.9. To fall within a healthy range, you should weigh no more than 149.5 pounds. Your goal weight is 140 pounds.Since your current weight is above the norms, you are right to want to lose weight. Once you reach 140 pounds, your new BMI will be 23.2 and you will be within the normal weight range. As a rough guide, you can achieve this goal in 3 to 4 month(s). Slower weight loss, however, is often more lasting. For permanent results, the ideal rate of weight loss 1-2 pounds per week.
I left alot of it out but now I really feel like I need to get off my butt and get it into shape! I bought some Taebo and Pilates videos...Now I need to put them in and start my workouts! Wish me luck!
