Day 16 Progress Update
I had a thought this morning as I was getting ready. Crossfit will build strength and and improve general fitness, but it won't necessarily cause weight loss. In addition, being overweight makes Crossfit more difficult from a technical standpoint at times. In order to lose weight while doing Crossfit I need to concentrate more on altering my eating habits as I've usually done in the past on weight loss efforts. The bonus will be that by the time I can drop the weight I should have a good amount of muscle hiding behind the fat, which will be nice.
