Got a new digital scale today that calculates water weight and body fat percentage along with normal weight. My starting weight was 126 pounds,
Here are my currentreadings:
Weight : 120 lbs
Body Fat Percentage : 20 %
Water weight: 54%
Based on this, I calculated my lean muscle mass through an online calculator and the result was that I have 96 pounds of lean muscle.
I have a couple of more pounds to lose to reach my goal weight. I eat within calorie goals and exercise 45-60 mins every day, six days a week.
Just wanted to know if my results are reason enough to feel happy with my progress so far. Knowing this will motivate me to keep doing what I am doing.
Thanks to all of you who reply.

What are your goals? Also, I think you are the only person that can judge whether your current readings are good for you are not, based on goals that you may have0
