My scale says my body fat is 35.8% and that my BMI is 25.8, which puts me into the overweight category. I think these numbers are faulty, but not sure how faulty.
I know my height (6'1") throws off the calcs, as does my muscle mass. But I find myself wondering... Am I ok with this? Should I be leaner? Is it worth the sacrifice and work it would take to get there, especially considering i live in Canada and am wearing a parka half the year?
I dunno.
Sorry folks, in a low mood and I guess seeking some endorphin rush via external validation. Might as well be honest. 🤪
I think you look amazing! ☺️👌
No need for sorry. I appreciate the honesty. BMI is crap for anyone with muscle. You look fantastic/fit. I can empathize with this. I feel fit and I am fine with how I look but always want to drop these “last” 10-15 lbs.
The last 10-15 suck. 🤪. Thank you 😊0 -

You are a stunning woman and extremely fit! You should be at the weight you are comfortable and happy with. Too many times we let the charts and numbers mess with our heads instead of really evaluating ourselves on the basis of how we feel and our satisfaction with our appearance. I think 15 more pounds would be a good place to stop and re-evaluate. You look great to me!0 -

If they ever needed an uber fit, ultra beautiful woman to play a Viking warrior I think I know where to find one. Dear lord Sandy.....1 -

You look fantastic! Scales and calculators sometimes don't give accurate measurements especially when you're taller and more muscular. Have you ever thought about doing a body composition scan?0 -

Thank you 😊 🥰. I am TOTALLY a number junkie and sadly often times the numbers cause me to feel real crappy. I used to weigh every day and now I'm trying to do that less. I am trying to focus more on my weight lifting and less on my scale. Besides... I sure love seeing the weight PRs go up! Haha

Thank you! I have thought about it. And almost have done it. But then I cheap out. Lol I think I'm also scared to find out the truth. It's way more comforting to say... Nah, my scale is on crack. 🤣
