I was just looking at my workout log, the picture one I have kept for quite a while, most notibly, since I got back into fitness again, about 6 months ago, perhaps longer. I actually felt sick (genuinely, physically nauseous) seeing how I looked 6 months ago. I made a couple of side-by-side images directly comparing (same position) then from now, and the difference is astounding.

It's quite therapeutic, because now it's like I'm not living in the past, and I know I CAN and WILL lose more body-fat and get bigger. Not gonna lie, I'm proud of myself... I got myself out of a very ugly rut. Also, for what little BMI matters, I'm not "obese" anymore, and only just "overweight".

My BMI is something like 26.3, according to the NHS website, 'though my "activity" is innacurate, as I workout 4 times a week quite intensively, outside of that, I occasionally use my pullup bar or do some other random exercise, walk almost everywhere, BUT still am sedetary a lot of the time because I'm on the computer. According to the website, I can get away with 185lbs as within the "healthy range".
