I am currently at 26.1. To get to the 25 mark I need to be at 179 or lower. I am sure this does not take into account my muscle mass. Not that I am ripped, but I do have a muscle or two. That said, it is obvious that I have extra fat still hanging around. I think dropping 10 to 15 lbs. should get me to where I want to be. And, if my running suffers for it, I know adding a few pounds back on won't be a problem. Mom already thinks I look sickly. But I think that is mostly from the fact that I have been overweight for so long. And, the last pictures she saw of me was when I really was sick. I guess it is time to send some new photos so she will stop trying to send me ice cream in the mail to fatten me back up. Mom, international shipping is not good for ice cream.

I could barely do anything. Now, I'm 165ish although the almighty US Department of Health says that I should weight around 149 for my height... uhhhhh, no.
