First, let me start out by saying that I had another good eating day. Woohoo!
We did bootcamp in the pool tonight. I must say that it was an interesting workout. It was a lot of "running" and we had these "weights" that we used. My leg muscles were burning, and my heart rate monitor said that I burned 500 calories. Plus, the instructor said that our heart rate monitors reflect a lower heart rate than the actual one, so I probably burned more than that.
You might have noticed that I've changed my ticker at the top. I've decided that I'm not really aiming to lose much weight anymore...maybe 5 pounds. I'm focusing on body fat percentage and overall health and fitness right now. If I happen to lose more than 5 lbs, I'm not going to complain, but it's not going to be something I'm obsessed with anymore...at least for this week :)
My immediate goal for BF is to get under 20%. My ultimate goal is going to be 17%. I'm not sure how difficult that will be, but it's something to work toward. (I'm currently at 21.3%.)
Nothing much else to say tonight. Gotta go eat something and get to bed.

Hey, glad to see you've set yourself some new goals. It's seemed lately you've been. . . I don't know. . . floundering. Flounder no more! Go get it done, KGurl.
those workouts in the pool must be brutal!
I always thought that pool workouts would be easy. Guess I was wrong. Go Kristen!
yes I too can see that Kristen is gathering steam... watch out fat your up for eviction and Kristen just drafted the notice.
Good to see you refocused - perhaps since weight loss isn't the main focus and Body Fat is, why don't you change the ticker to reflect that?
Thanks, Rob. silly me...
Pool workouts are impressive. When I had knee problems that was a suggestion from my orthopedic surgeon.
P.S. I cant wait to hang out on Saturday :)
Cant wait to hear about your progress towards your new goals. Work it out!
welcome to the confusing world of "what do i do now that I'm not focused on losing weight?"!!
If nothing else, use this time to slowly ramp up calories to a more normal level, sort of like resetting your metabolism. Just be careful not to gain!
