Well I started a workout schedule early this morning. It was so hard to get up but I did.

I am in my third week of Atkins and I have decided to try to do the BFL along with Atkins. I am on induction. I guess I will take my measurements again tonight.

I weighed this morning and I am at 173 lbs with 44% body fat .

Adjusted based on the correct calculation:
My goal is to reduce my body fat to 20% and tone. This means my goal weight has to be adjusted to 122 lbs (lean body mass ([97 lbs] + [20% body fat (=20%*122)]).

I hope I stick with it. It is really hard to get up and do it in the morning.

Today, I did the BFL upper body . I am using 3 lb to 12 lb dumbells. I have no barbells and no bench so I used chairs to do the chest press and the lying triceps.

The workout was tough for me and I am know I will be really stiff tomorrow
