Near the end, the going's tough

My target weight is at the top of the normal weight interval for my height. If yours is different your results may be different as well. So, how's your body fat percentage? You at a healthy body fat percentage now? Or are you still insisting that the BMI charts are a good proxy for you? How about you try some of the tape measure calculators online? Or call a gym and ask a caliper-trained person to measure you? Or go to the x-ray department and have a bone density scan (they'll tell you the other percentages of tissue, too, I've heard.) What I don't get is how you came up with a target "weight" without knowing your body fat percentage. It sounds like a garbage-in/garbage out black box function to me. You're better at math than that. -- Wendy |

I have a caliper, but I am too lazy to use it. My hunch is that my BF% is 15-17%. I do mean to use a caliper, I am not opposed to it, I just have not gotten around to doing it. Hmmmm. Maybe we should make that a package deal. That Pumpuii stuff is the same brand I buy. And I need a caliper. And I sold some stock last night so I have money again. If you're ditching the caliper I might be buying. But you gotta come down on price: I bought three bottles for $30 last time straight from the manufacturer. Wendy |
