For those of you who are long-term readers, you’ll remember my personal battle last May/June, where I went from 22% body fat down to around 15% body fat.  It all started with this blog, which explains how a guy can figure out exactly what his body should look like, according to Ancient Greeks.  Sadly, six months later, my body is a shambles.

For those who don’t click hyperlinks, here’s what The Ancient Greeks say I should look like:

Now, I will never have a 30″ waist.  Ever.  But, at my best, I did get down to the following:

That had me at 15% body fat, down from 22% a month earlier.  I am now back up to that percentage, and here’s how my numbers look today…which is after losing 10lbs over the last two weeks!

Now some of this…I don’t know what happened.  I easily had a 38″-40″ waist a month ago.  How did hat happen?  Too much soda; too much pizza; too many potato chips.  It’s disgraceful.  My T-shirts were clinging to my torso for dear life.

Even now, I’m not in good shape.  I need to shed 15 pounds of fat spread between my abdomen, hips, and thighs; my goal is to lose 5″ from my waist, 2″ from my hips, and 2″ from my thighs.

We’ll see how that goes…
