    Also might want to read Primal Blueprint by Mark Sisson and look into 5 x 5 lifting workouts.

    I personally wouldn't worry about BF % and measuring it.

    I would go by how you look and feel....

    But hey to each their own
    Yes, this. By your own admission in your OP you get caught up in "numbers". Sounds like you're still focusing on them: calories, weight, BF%, etc. It's ok to know the numbers to use as a gauge, but don't let them take over. Keep track of your measurements and how you look and how you feel. Particularly when you get down to a lower weight and/or BF% the numbers don't move much, which can SEEM like a bad thing, but it's not necessarily the case.
