No longer "Overweight"!

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I'm not a big fan of the BMI index and prefer body fat calculations as they BMI calculated BF based on height as to weight without taking into consideration the amount of actual muscle one has on their frame. It works well for individuals that aren't heavily into strength training but does not function well for guys like me. For example, if I'm 18% body fat but at about 215 lbs, 6'1", I'm showing 28.4 BMI which is overweight. Even if I was to get down to 190, which would mean I would have to get down to probably 10% body fat and cut off around 5-10 pounds of muscle, I'd still be classified as overweight.0

Woohoo! I'm hoping to get there someday too, but I'll settle for not being considered 'obese' by the BMI scale.0

Great job. I am almost down to 30 on my scales but I know 25 will pop up if I keep working at it.0
