Second, I have yet to find any method of measuring bf% with any accuracy. I have heard about them, but not seen they myself. I know how you feel. I don't even measure any more as I find it depresses me if I thought I had gone down and I measure even higher then I was last time. Still it is hard to let go of wanting to know what that number really is. Keep doing what you are doing and if you want to, do a cut. 26%... I don't think so my friend!

I did buy myself some calipers a few weeks back when I started my new program. They got me more down that the darn scale. Said I was 26% BF. :-/ Whatever though... I'm happy with the visual progress, Just wish I could find some other "metric" to hang on to as I struggle some of those mornings to do my 6am workout. Good to know your blood sugar is in the right range. That's certainly more important than some dumb BF %. Good luck on your goals! Thanks, Alicia!

Do you have calipers? I can see where you've made progress. That scale can't be right. Good luck, you're looking good. I’m not so sure about some of those scales. Do you have calipers?
