my numbers.

This weekend I met with a wellness coach & had a wellness profile done.

Here were my results: (Saturday, April 13 @ 11:00am)

Weight: 212.2 lbs.
BMI: 30.5
Body Fat Percentage: 37.0
Skeletal Muscle Percentage: 28.7
Resting Metabolism: 1813
Body Age: 38
Visceral Fat Level: 6

(I'm 25 years old and 5 feet 10 inches tall)

What my numbers mean....

Weight: I'm considered obese
BMI: I'm considered obese
Body Fat Percentage: I'm considered obese
Skeletal Muscle Percentage: I'm in the normal range (yay!)
Resting Metabolism: I'm in the normal range
Body Age: YIKES!
Visceral Fat Level: I'm considered low risk

 

Seeing my numbers and hearing the word obese over and over, was quite depressing (to say the least). It was just the rude awakening I needed! I know I've gained weight but I never thought I was obese. Being obese has a lot of health risks attached to it and that scares me.

 

But then I realized... I did this to myself (no one else). And I'm the only one that can change this (and take the weight off).

 

So instead of getting down (and reaching for some comfort food), I'm going to make this fuel that feeds the fire under me!

 

I'm hoping to have these same numbers checked monthly and hopefully they'll improve!
