Starting the Weight Challenge

I started my 12 week weight challenge on Thursday night at SWEAT Challenge in Anthem, Arizona. I got measured, weighed and "evaluated" (aka humiliated, of my own making, not by anyone at SWEAT). I will post my weight, body fat and measurements - I am willing to go through this embarrassment only because I hope that it might inspire someone else to start working out. In addition to working with a trainer for one hour four times per week for twelve weeks - I also have to start a fairly strict eating regimen. I can only have Optimal shakes 3 times per day for the first week, and a handful of berries at night. Yikes, I think the eating restriction will be the hardest thing for me - when I am hungry and I smell food, I lost all will power! Anyway, hopefully I will be able to report great success as this progresses. Here are my statistics:


Wish me luck!
