Labels!!

I have been thinking since yesterday all this deal about labels, and how society loves to create new ones for everything and anything. The one I have been thinking mostly about has to do with my present project (weight loss). Up to now I have lost 28 pounds (my God! I can not believe it! – but that’s another story) In any case, it’s funny how according to my body fat percent I’m in an ‘acceptable’ category, according to my Body Mass Index (BMI) I’m in the borderline between overweight an obese and according to my current dress size I’m ‘moderately heavy’ – to mention a few … Personal trainers say that the body fat percent is what really tells the true story on someone's body and fitness.

I could be going crazy trying to fit well in all of them, like if I need any additional pressure along the process which has not been as painful as I thought originally. I am feeling great and healthy which I was already prior to this journey and there were many reasons to do it and now I can only continue forward but if I really cared about labels and categories then the stress level of this journey would be unbearable.

Well, I had to write about this since it has been bugging me since yesterday. I still need to talk about my relaxing weekend and the kick off of my next goal.
