4 Weeks Done - Progress report!

So how has everything gone? Well, although I've been putting in the effort there are lots of improvements that need to be made in order to make better progress. Before I continue take a look at the photos first;

  • Weight - 14st 11.5lbs (down 1lb from last week)
  • Body Fat % - 9.8% (down 0.6% from last week)
  • Waist - 35.5 inches (down 0.5 inches from last week)

I also have readings from a handheld body composition monitor. These are as follows;

  • Body Fat% - 28.8%
  • Body Water - 52.0%
  • Muscle - 67.8%
  • BMI - 29.0
  • calories - 2, 840

The BF reading is considerably more 10% infact. Whilst I don't think the calipers have given a true reading (a bit low) I dont think that the body composition monitor has either (too high). I would estimate me being somewhere about 20% if I'm honest.

The BMI reading of 29 puts me at the upper limit of overweight and nearly in the obese section which I think is a little harsh. I realise I have a lot of work to do but don't for one minute class myself as nearly obese. I give a more general update later but thought I'd post the actual results for everyone to see.

Cheers, BustaGut!
