BF % and Tape measure madness
Did a new set of measurements today and got really funky results....
Hips, waist and thighs are virtually unchanged - down a half inch in the waist is all.
Everywhere else is down - 2 inches off my belly, an inch off bust and calves, half an inch off throat, forearm, knee and ankle and a bit more than a quarter inch off my wrist. Scale weight is down 4-5 lbs but because my hips and waist didn't change, my BF% stays the same. :P Yeah, a caliper test might show some results, but the trainers at my gym seem pretty ham-handed with those things, and frankly, I don't like them touching me like that either. I don't think I would be very accurate doing it myself, so for now I am stuck with the tape measure.
Also, I've been using Lipoderm this week on the navel to knees area and it tends to cause subcutaneous water retention, so possibly there's some of that going on. Anyhow, I know I'm losing and that's all that really matters.
Cheers,
Friday
