Ok so that was about the best that I could think of for a title for my journal. If I get inspired later I hope I can change it.
Anyway, here's goes, my first post. I started out at 186lbs 3 months ago, and I was 168.2 this morning, I can finally see my upper abs... kinda. Oddly enough I found John's transformation about a month after I started working out, and it has been a life saver. I get down about my progress and how quickly I am shaping out, but then I look at his month to month and realize it took him a while to get there too. Guess it's that whole instant gratification that all of society expects.
I used the cheap-o fat calipers and it said 16%, I used my scale and it said 11%... soI am going to go with 15% body fat. What really got me going today is that I ran from my house to a park ! It was 4.8 miles

, and I got honked at by crazy chicks!!
If you woulda told me that I was going to be in this shape 3.5 months ago or whenever I started, I woulda said you were crazy. The ultimate goal is to get to 8 or 10 % body fat, and see my lower abs for the first time in my life
