I’ve tried three ways of measuring body fat:

1. I got new scales for Christmas which should do it. They seem to measure how damp your feet are however! They read 28 (just out the bath and so still damp) or 31 (dead dry).

2. I’ve visited on line sites that measure your B.M.I. based on your height and weight. I come out as 31.8 – obese – boohoo – well I did know it.

3. This morning I went to www.mybodycomp.com where you take loads of measurements of different parts of your body and feed them in. It produced a figure which showed my body was made up of 25.89% fat.

Which would you trust, and which do you use?
