What would ChickenTuna do?

Posted by Rose Bush on August 6th, 2012

It’s no surprise to anyone that has known me more than a year that I used to be big, as in obese, as in  severely/morbidly obese depending on how you looked at it.  My body mass index was 39.3.  Per the wiki on Obesity:

  • Any BMI ≥ 35 or 40 is severe obesity
  • A BMI of ≥ 35 or 40–44.9 or 49.9 is morbid obesity
  • A BMI of ≥ 45 or 50 is super obesity
My current BMI is 22.9, I put on a few pounds in the past week 😐   .  As best as I can tell, I am down to about 30 lbs of fat, which is far below where I started.  Due to my recent weight gain, I have felt motivated to do _________ about it.  I recently came upon a post on reddit:

ᔥ Looking in the couch : hardbodies

Someone posted who she was, and my research ensued. She has an active facebook following:

Just wow.  No BS, no gimmicks, truth, self determination, self control.  She is such an inspiration.  If she can look that good at 44, I wonder how good I can look by 34.  It needs to be a very personal challenge for a leaner self.  WWCTD?
