Productive Weight-loss Week

By Sam Obsession —

Intro

It's been a productive week, weight-loss wise; I can't really complain.

I just bought an inexpensive weight scale that calculates more than just my body weight; it also

  • allows me to set a user profile (up to 10 people)
  • displays body fat percentages, BMI, as well as a few other data points.

My New Toy Got Me.....Bummed!

On my last check-in documented here, I thought my body fat percentage was between 20 - 25%.

After weighing myself with my new scale, it turns out my body fat percentage is actually 27%. Factoring in any inaccuracy in the equipment, it seems my body fat % is definitely closer to 25 than 20.

What.a.bummer!

That bummed me down for a couple of hours as I thought I was getting closer to my targeted body fat %.

No worries; I'll keep working at it.

It never gets easier; you only get better!
