Week 73
Down some more in the BF% pinches! It’s not much each week, but over time the little changes add up to a big change. According to my calipers since the middle of January, I am down 4 mm according to cheap plastic one, and by the digital caliper I am down 6 mm in the same time frame. For a while now my pinch total is less than my stomach alone was when I first did a BF% pinch over a year ago. That’s rather cool. As to what my actual BF% is, it’s open to interpretation. The chart I have says it is now 8.8% according to the total from the plastic caliper… no way I am at 8.8%… and 9.8% according to the total from the digital caliper. Um, I don’t think so. Something around 11%-13% is probably more like it. I put myself at 11.5%, just for the sake of discussion! 
I was moving data around the other day, transferring stuff from some Zip disks to an external hard drive and came across a number of digital pix from several years ago. One that caught my attention was one of myself taken at work in June of 2001… yikes, what a chunker!! I was thinking that around that time I had been a little more svelte, but apparently not! Nothing like some photos to encourage some progress.
I’d rather not look like that 2001 photo again, so I’ll keep liftin’.
