hello my fellow MFPers! I am curious about what my body fat percentage is. I have heard that going off of the picture scale is actually fairly accurate however I am quite terrible at judging my own pictures (when it comes to these things I tend to be a bit biased
). Anyways, if you have an opinion, i would love to hear it!Thank you so much for taking the time to read this, I hope you all have a blessed day!
(Ps I hope you all enjoy my way of blurring out my face hahaha

25ish... Really though it's impossible to say. What one person looks like at 18% another can look like at 22-23, it's all just a matter of genetics. Body Fat Calipers, 24.99 at GNC

25% maybe, averaged out? would say 22-23 at the top and a bit more on the bottom (like most women).0

Great link! Really informative. I must've been looking at the men's chart earlier because for some reason I had thought that 25% was at the very upper part of the healthy range-guess I was wrong! Thank you0 -

Thanks for that link. Those pictures helped me guesstimate my body fat percentage. I will ignore my digital scale's gross misrepresentation of my physique.

Impossible to tell
You would need to post front, side, back, arms down, straight on and natural light in both flexed and relaxed poses
Why don't you just use the army fat calculators they are close enough
Why do you want your BF %0 -

Wow, seems like a lot of work for a number! There's no particular reason, I had just seen a thread talking about body fat (on mobile otherwise I would link it) percentage and I was just curious! multiple users posted that most scales/scans aren't very accurate, and that it is probably most reliable to go off of the picture scale (I've seen multiple threads where this was stated).0 -
And thank you all for the honest input!! I really do appreciate the kindness of so many of the MFP users0
