Some Health Statistics - Before Slimming Program

Taken as of 27 April 2010, here are my health measurements:

Height: 175cm
Weight: 82.7kg
BMI (Body Mass Index): 27 (Overweight)

BMI Categories:
  • Underweight = <18.5
  • Normal weight = 18.5-24.9
  • Overweight = 25-29.9
  • Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater 
SCS (Skin Carotenoid Scores): 13,000 (Low)

Skin Carotenoid Score is a measurement of the presence of carotenoid antioxidants in the skin. Carotenoids are powerful antioxidants found in abundance in certain fruits and vegetables. Carotenoids neutralize damaging free radical molecules and are absorbed in human plasma and tissue, providing an excellent indicator of a person’s antioxidant level.

Skin Carotenoid Score Index

40,000 ~ 49,000+ Blue – High presence of skin carotenoids
30,000 ~ 39,000 + Green – Good presence of skin carotenoids
20,000 ~ 29,000+ Yellow – Moderate presence of skin carotenoids
10,000 ~ 19,000 Red – Low presence of skin carotenoids

Body Fat: 25.2%
Upper Arm: 29.5cm
Waist: 98cm
Abdomen: 97cm
Hip: 96cm
Thigh: 49cm
Calf: 40.5cm


As you can see from my health measurements, I am not exactly in the 'FIT' category. Hence, I am putting my trust in this program to see results.

The Complete Slimming & Health Solution

I'm starting on a new slimming & health solution today. This complete package will take me on a 3 month easy to follow dietary course with supplements to help me in getting my body back in shape. I was kind of skeptical at the program at first but as I watched the LIVE testimonials from people who have went through the solution before me, boy was I impressed.

Anyway, I will be updating this new blog on a weekly basis, to share my progress.

Attached are the photos of me taken this morning, before I start the program.





















I wish to achieve success with this complete slimming & health solution. Not only can it help me slim down, more importantly, I hope that my health will improve with it. My current health readings are not so 'ideal' and according to calculations, I have a body age of 47 even though I am only 34 this year.

Wish me success...
