For all my bitching about not seeing the needle on the home scale do anything I find attractive, and the digital readout on the one at the club saying the same aggravating thing, I wrangled some good news out of the fact that I'm kicking my ass at spinning class three times a week, and lifting three or four.
My body fat is under 20%.
Today's 19.6 represents about a two or three percent improvement over when we first hit the gym five months ago (holy crap, it's been five months?!?!)
I am going to damn well take solace (and pride) in the fact that I've apparently turned five pounds of flab into something better.
CW: 181
GW: ??? (was 165, but I think BMI is skewed for couch potatoes)
SW: 183
Fuck gravity, I can lift more, bike farther and harder, and maybe, just maybe, see some improvement in my back, arms, and shoulders.
