Hey everyone,
I hope the link I post with this works.
I found this really awesome Microsoft excel chart that you can download.
They make ones for men and for women.
Once a week you put in your height, weight, and measurements of your Chest, waist, hips, wrist, and forearm.
Then it automatically has equations build into it to measure your estimated lean body weight, estimated body fat weight, estimated body fat percentage, and estimated Body Mass Index (BMI)!
Then it automatically takes the information you entered and puts it into line graphs of measurements, weight & BMI, and Weight & body fat.

I thought it was really neat and FREE!

Now I know that this website does all of the same things, but if you find yourself without internet, these could maybe be a good back up! :)

Good luck, and I hope everyone is doing a great job reaching their goals. :)

Mandy! <3

    It says "excel cannot open this file. The file might have been damaged or modified from its original format"

    The file opened fine for me, but it looks very complicated. Have fun with it, though. :smile:

    jenzenzen The files are in the newer format so you need excel / office 2007 or later to open them.

    I just downloaded this and am confused. I am overweight and it shows my BMI at 29 which is right. However, the body fat % is showing at 19% - that seems low. Is it? I've never had my body fat measured before so I'm not sure? Can anyone advise?
    Thanks.

    If you do a Google search for Microsoft Excel progress charts for women, the main site will come up and there are charts for metric as well as standard (lbs, inches) for download.
