Just found out I'm at 15% body fat

Options
I am so so so happy!

For a year I've been disappointed by seeing my weighing scale (one of those that even measures body fat) display my body fat between 20-22%. I dropped close to 5 lbs but had almost no change in body fat.

I recently started going to the office gym and they accurately measured my body fat today - to 15.3%. I cannot believe it! I tried not to jump out yelling in front of my super serious colleagues. The mirror showed progress now the scales show it too.

MFP did really change my life. I haven't really changed much other than trying to stay within the 40-40-20% macro.

Thanks everyone!

    That's awesome, great job!

    I'm also working on to lower my body fat percentage down to 17% (I'm currently seeing figures between 19-21% depending on the method used)
