5 down... 7 to go!

Update
Ooookay, so my 5th weigh in was ages ago, on December 21, and I should've put it up here for posterity, but the truth is, I don't have all my info like I normally do. When I showed up for my weigh in, Peggy informed me that because Curtis was out gallivanting around instead of teaching the BeFit class, she would have to teach, and I would be with a substitute. Now, I've basically gotten over my fear of substitutes, Mike has trained me so often, but for a weigh in... now that's a different matter. Turns out that measurements - usually thought of as objective - can be subjective, depending on who's doing the measurements... As it happened, Mike took all my measurements, and they were all over the place - some way higher than last time (those with the measuring tape), some way lower (those with the calipers); Peggy took one look and then hastily redid them all at the end of my workout. I was so flustered by the confusion that I didn't write anything down the way I should've... so there's the caveat to any of the data below...

the Stats (part 6)

Weight: 150 (whew, this was a relief)! Really, I thought I had lost about 8 lbs, what with Thanksgiving, the cruise, etc., so when I hopped on the scale and it said 150, I was genuinely as surprised as Peggy. The day of my weigh-in, I had been careful not to eat much, if anything - kashi bar, string cheese, etc. - and I had sipped on a laxative tea, trying to get rid of any water weight, so it must've worked!

Caliper Measurements:

Tricep: ??, previously 23

Abdomen: ??, previously 17
Thigh: ??, previously 42
All I know is that after Peggy recalculated everything, I was at 30.4% body fat, previously 31.0%... Sorry for no more details

Other measurements:

Arm: 9.5 in., previously 9 in - gained .5 inch? Maybe this was because it was post-workout?

Torso: ?? in., previously 27

Waist: ?? in.,previously 28

Hips: 36.5 in., previously 38 - lost 1.5 inches

Thigh: ?? in., previously 20

3 Minute Step Test (Heart Rate): 109 bpm., previously 111 bpm. Still on the low side of "Average." My next goal here is to get down to 102 bpm which would be "Above Average"
Pushups: 35 in 60 secs. or as long as I could go without stopping. 3 more than last time!
Situps: 88 in 60 secs. 18 more than last time!

And since you folks are probably getting tired of all these pics of me half-naked, here's one in some of my recently purchased "skinny" clothes (on sale at Banana Republic!) taken around the same time...
