We have a scale at work that measures body fat percentage etc. I have been looking at it and wondering what mine is for a couple of years now but I have been too scared to get on. Until tonight!

Weight 11st 4 (7 st 10 - 10 st 6)
Body fat % 33.8% (25 - 32.2%)
Body fat mass 24.3kg (18 - 23.1)

I am amazed how close I am to the upper ranges. I thought I was way off but it feels like its within reach at last!

I know this isn't a success story yet but I am so happy with how close I am. I know I'm only reaching for the top ranges right now, but once I get there, who knows!? NOTE: I am not interested in getting to the lower range!

On the down side, I found out I'm 2 inches shorter than I thought so I loose 40 calories a day!

    That's great that you're so close! I went to the doctor the other day and found out that I was an inch shorter than I thought I was too...so I lowered my end goal and my calories:P

    Yeah. I'm too scared to get in the one in my dance studio. I'm almost at goal, 10lbs to go and just today have shifted my cals from 1390 daily to 1600 which is a strange ol feeling.
    I might just take my chance with that machine. I might be pleasantly surprised like you were.

    I was advised to put mine up now but 1600 looks so much, I'm scared the loss will stop. I had a stall this week due to a binge on Friday (it's taken me 7 days to get back to where I was last Friday) so I'm going to wait till I'm loosing again and on a roll. Well done getting so close!! :)
