Positive news today! Went for 8 week follow up at the Body Fat Water Tank Test Lab and am pleased with the results. In preparation for P90X I had a complete physical from my cardiologist. The results were that I was very overweight with good blood pressure, and fair cholesteral. The doctor recognized my seriousness about P90X and suggested I get a true baseline of my body fat percentage through the use of a water tank test. He even said he will help pay for them if I was truly as dedicated as I seemed. So on September 17th I took the test and wthe results stunned me, not only by the percentage of fat that made up my body but also exactly hoew many pounds of fat I had.
The good news! 59 days later on November 16th I went back for a 8 week follow up and learned I lost 10 pounds of fat, gained 3 pounds of muscle, with a 3% decrease in body fat. What a great discovery. The technician said this is a tremendous beginning of a true body transformation. He says 99% of people loose both fat and muscle and he was extemely surprised that I managed to have such great results. He suggested I not lose more than 1-1/2 pounds a week and to keep doing what I'm doing. He stated, eat the right foods and not to cut to many calories, that my body needs them to fuel this transformation. I'm scheduled to go back in 90 days.
