I stepped on the scale this morning just so I have a measure point. I should of done a bodyfat before I started. So as of this morning I am BF scale. How accurate are BF scales? These scales should be used to compare a difference between 1 person over time. Each scale can give you a slightly different reading. There are all kinds of factors that can change home type readings. Never use a home scale to compare your results to the results of a different person on a different scale. You can google things that can effect bodyfat reading. If you are comparing results, you can safely compare the change. If you are down 2% and your friend is down 3%, these are things you could compare. You could also compare % of weight lost. Don't expect to see those big numbers like the biggest loser show. It is a weekly show but it may be taped over 2 weeks or a week and a half. There are to many unknown factors. You should never compare your self to a TV show. What you can do is learn concepts. I watch each season to see if I can learn something new every season. What did I learn from Rachel? It is a game and she is a competitor. She did what she had to do to win. Because she didn't know what the others were doing she gave it her all. At the point after winning she has to find a lifestyle she can maintain. When you hear she worked out for 6 hours with trainers and ate so clean I learned this is what it takes to reach these weights. So if your goal is 110 pounds which I hear all the time, clean eating is the #1 thing you better be doing. 2nd. your going to have to work out without sleeping through workouts.
Setting real goals you can live with is a key so you don't get down on yourself when you don't follow your plan. You have hear setting yourself up to fail? Really look at what keeps you on program and don't sign up for something you know is impossible. Remember smaller possibles do add up to an almost impossible or should I say a I never could of dreamer.
When I stepped on the scale this morning at 29.9% body I can now use some of the BF calculator tools to see what a 1% body fat loss would be in pounds. We have to remember as muscle goes up and fat goes down the scale may not change or it may even go up.
I am off to work and will give you an update next week.
Keep up the good work .
I did a body fat scale this morning and yesterday and they were both about the same 25.6. I just needed to post this so I remember my almost start point.
Update I have to quick tell you that this platue finally broke. YYYAA 128.8 Things are paying off. I was at the gym last night and was doing
some challenges on my strivii and before I knew it I was at 1.9 miles and
still under 30 min. So I looked at it and thought I better kick it up
and I can get this done. I did it. I was excited and proud of myself. I tell you those Mushroom
thing I made last night was really good. If you ask me if I miss Ice
cream I will tell you no. Not really.
When I mixed this up and tasted this I was thinking it could be a great dip. I put into the food processor, 1 onion, and chopped that up, added the herb goat cheese, the bag of spinach and some melt type cheese. This was really pretty good. I could of left the melt type cheese out and used it as a dip.
