Arctic Ranger - the Winter Walker

[WinterWalker]

Heyo!  I've actually been a member for a year, but that's been more maintenance than progress.  Never really looked at the forums before, which was a bit of a mistake on my part. Lesson learned.  Started my battle logs couple weeks ago, and here's this part.

 

Technically a respawn, but also technically a first-start.  Merh.

 

29-year old female, currently a full-time college student because reasons.

 

Current: 173 lbs, measurements 39-37-41, body fat approx 29%

Goal:    150 lbs, measurements approx 37-26-37, body fat approx 20%

 

I'm putting measurements and body-fat percentage (even as approximates) because I don't want to get hung up on the scale.  The calibration on that thing is a bit iffy on the best of days.  Having the alternative numbers gives me something to shoot for, and if I need to revamp due to miscalculation of reality, I'm good with that.

 

I've been glorious and wonderful with food-journaling (which is new, in the past I've hated it.)  3 week streak!  Working out is also going fairly well.  There's two free-for-students classes at the college gym that I'm attending (one on Monday, one on Wednesday), and tomorrow I'm scheduled to meet with a personal trainer to get a workout plan figured.  I know there's the ones offered at Nerdfitness, but I'm a lazy bum and want/need someone to push me in person.  At least to help me set the base parameters.

 

For glory and loot!

Hiiiiiiiiiiii!

 

I'm glad you found the forum, it's an amazing community here and I'm sure you will find tons of support.  Have you found your way around ok?  I see you've started a battle log, do you think you'll take part in the next 4 Week Challenge too?  They are a great way of getting to know other members and there's nothing better for accountability than having loads of people checking in to see how you're getting on.

I'm thinking strongly about doing the 4-week challenge, especially now that I've got the personal-trainer thing set up.  I've already printed off the worksheets for the challenge.

You should do it. You'd fit right in with the Rangers.
