just when i thought i was getting nowhere!!!
i stepped on the scales this morning and for the first time in months i seen the numbers 257 (117kg) - more weight lost, the next figure i seen was 18.3 - my bodyfat percentage!! this was really disheartening i have lost 15lbs and my bodyfat % has only dropped 3.7%!!!!
i feel manorexic!!! granted i havent lost any strenght in the gym and i can see that the weight is coming off my waist but to lose 15lbs and drop not even 4% bf is just crazy! ok so i had to do some math to try solve this!
start 272lbs bf22%= 60lbs lean body mass = 212lbs
present 257lbs bf18.3% = 47lbs lean body mass = 210lbs
and it is only when i worked it out like this did i realise that im actually doing really good! in the 15lbs i have lost only two of them are lean body mass which i think is pretty ok!
so in order to reach 15% bf while maintaining 210lbs lbm i will have to get down to 247lbs
10% bf means weighing 233 while maintaining 210lbm
well im straying off the point a bit here. ill try for 15% and see how that goes . . remember i have ten weeks of cutting still to do so im actually exceited about how this will turn out for me!
