"Based upon your current Body Mass Index (BMI) of 24.8, you are currently classed as at a healthy weight.
A healthy BMI for your gender and age is between 18.5 and 24.9 and a reasonable weight loss rate is 0.5-2 pounds a week"
I am thinking of trying to go down to 170 and call it good...this will create a bit of cushion and I will likely settle in at 172-173....
any teenage women are reading this you may want to stop here....
for every lb you lose you run 2 seconds a mile faster...by 5lb weight loss translates to 10-11 secounts a mile faster or 1.8% faster for me...
that translates into appx 2:30 faster ski time at Mora over my predicted ski time before the weight loss and an appx 2:15 minute savings at the Kortie Saturday...seems to make sense...
