Melissa B. is a "Newness-seeking Self-improving Tree Hugger" . . . or is she? :)
Losing weight is not my goal. Since I hurt my knee running and had a forced decrease in exercise (the knee is better now, though it will probably never be great), I’ve been feeling like I have excess flab.
I got my husband a body fat scale for Christmas. The good news is that according to charts, my % is in the “healthy” range for a woman my age. The bad news is that it is higher within the range than I would like. I.e., I can stand to lose a few percentage points. The numbers seemed to bear out what I was feeling (that I have some extra fluff).
I am anti-dieting, so this will have to be achieved through exercise or not at all.
