    Good work Arvi. I too want to eventually reach 15% body fat. As of today I am at 22.6%.

    Yep, Arvind.

    I am 5 9. 75 should be a decent number. P90X is challenging, yet fun. Hope I lose some more pounds and find myself in 'healthy BMI' range by end of 2013.

    Hmm.... that's almost a st line!!!

    Probably you need to take a look at your diet/exercise pattern. My wife is doing ChaLean Extreme. See if you like it.

    I agree - looks like a consistency thing. Once you figure what works for you from a calorie and execise point of view as long as you stick to it (and change it up if you plateau) you should see a steady downward trend. It takes a lot of trial and error to find out what works for YOU since we're all different and respond in different ways.

    There are several ways to calculate body fat % some online calculators you can use:

    And an interesting article on various other methods:

    Thanks everybody for your support and encouragement... I use a weighing scale with body fat analyser - Omron HBF200. Though it may not be accurate, it gives a fair idea and a relative scale to track if I am making progress.

    Though overall weight loss seem to be impressive, I am not happy with the fat loss. Just about 7% (for 12.5kg weight loss) since I started five months ago.

    Slow but steadily progressing for sure... Skipped my Workout for this entire week due to work schedule. So, I weigh pretty much the same as last week.

    Pleased with my results using MFP.
    I have been exercising on and off actually,. The only thing I try to ensure is walk atleast 30 minutes 3-4 times a week.
    But I did an intense exercise regime during end may-beginning of June and I think these benefits are mostly due to that.

    SW - 66.5Kg. - 24.4.2013
    - 65 Kg - 24.5.2013
    -63 Kg - 29.7.2013

    Its around 4.5 kg. Not very huge if you look at statistics on MFP. However, this is the first time ever in my life that I have lost so much. My weight was anyways in healthy range before I started MFP. I am here to reduce body fat % which is very high and makes me a latent obese person. (31% at the start). I havent measured recently. But with this weightloss I think I have reduced it a bit. MFP helped me a lot in terms of tips to change my diet composition. I will measure my Body fat by end of August only.
    I have another 6 kgs to lose now.
