Lately, I've become an addict to vBulletin forums boards.  Since the discover of this medium, I have increased my knowledge of said areas of specialty 10 fold!  Whereas brings me here, to this forum.  I have always been relativly fit, but I am now striving for more.  I'm 5'6", 158lbs, moderately flexible, and with a BMI of approx. 15-17%.  I have a 31.5" waist, which is my primary concern.  I ahve a higher standards by which I live by, so mediocrity is not cutting it any more for me.  Basically, I wanna be able to wash my clothes on my stomach.  I am blessed to live in a beautiful state here in USA (CA) with many like minded health freaks, but I thirst for the particulars that only can be discussed and discovered from personal experience.  My goal is to fit back into my 30" jeans comfortably in 4 months, and by this time next year have a BMI of less that 10%.  I look forward to all the input and knowledge this forum and its members have to offer.  Cheers!
