I decided to do a body composition evaluation at my gym today. They recommend to do it once per month, but I haven’t done one since August of last year. Even though my weight and my BMI (Body Mass Index) are considered to be in the normal range, my goal is to slim down to my pre-pregnancy weight. Before I got pregnant I weighed 125 pounds and at the time of my evaluation in August I weighed 138.5.

So today I was anxious to see my progress between August and now. I was pretty sure that I lost weight based on how my clothes fit me now, but I was quite surprised to find that I only lost less than 2 pounds! Well, weight is not everything I guess. According to my measurements, I lost some inches everywhere. The biggest difference was in my waist, it’s 2 inches smaller now! My guess is that I did loose some fat and gained some muscle. I think I also had some of that post-pregnancy puffiness back then. Glad it’s gone now!

Well, I still got some work to do to reach my goal. This requires loosing 12 pounds. I know it’s not an easy road, but as long as I strive I’ll be there some day.
