Weight: Didn 't weigh

Breakfast: Oatmeal with Smart Balance spread. Coffe with 3 tsp cream and 3 tsp splenda. Half cup Blueberries. Bottle of Dan Active. 7 oz. skim milk with 2 tsp Beneficial Fiber.
Lunch: Gloria's (Salvadoran food) in Frisco with daughter, Son n Law and friends. Had about 20 chips with Salsa and Bean dip, Carne Apodado (skirt steak marinaded in house marinade and barbecued) and brown rice.  Iced Tea
Snack: Pineapple wedge 
Dinner: 6 oz Salmon. Mixed vegetables microwaved 6 oz milk.
Snack: 10 walnut halves. 1 beer

Exercise: Walked 3.7 miles. Slowly got up to 70% of pulse rate and tried to stay as close as possible to that during entire walk. Cool down and stretch.  I was in the upper 70's so I went outside.

My Body Mass Index is 31.2
Use the BMI Calculator in the right sidebar to estimate your body fat.
Muscle weighs more than fat so I'm not too worried that my BMI puts me in the Obese range. My target is lower end of "Overweight Range".

Although BMI can be used for most men and women, it does have some limits:
  • It may overestimate body fat in athletes and others who have a muscular build.
  • It may underestimate body fat in older persons and others who have lost muscle.
The BMI score means the following:
BMI
Underweight
Below 18.5
Normal
18.5–24.9
Overweight
25.0–29.9
Obesity
30.0 and Above
