Tape measure:
Measurements (in inches):
- neck 13
- shoulders 41
- chest 33
- bust 35
- bicep 13
- forearm 10
- waist 27
- abdomen 33
- hips 37
- thigh (thickest part) 22
- thigh (midway) 19
- calf 13
CLIFFS:
- Chest size down 2 inches, but bust size up 1 inch.
Measuring chest right under my armpits above my boobs. Weird.
- Abdomen (where pants sit) down 1 inch.
- All other tape measurements remain the same as from the start.
Body fat:
Using the calculators found here:
https://www.linear-software.com/online.html
- Jackson/Pollock 7 caliper: 16.51%
- Jackson/Pollock 3 caliper: 15.5%
- Jackson/Pollock 4 caliper: 16.81%
- Parrillo Durnin/Womersley 9 caliper: 20.29%
- Parrillo Durnin/Womersley 4 caliper: 25.48%
- tape measure: 23.86%
CLIFFS:
-Some of these went down, and others went up. Equations are stupid. :p
-Since I've heard the Jackson/Pollock 7 is the most accurate method, I'll "track" that one.
Original bf% measurement = 18.85, minus today's measurement 16.51 = 2.34% bf lost so far.
Conclusion: measurements are going down in all the right places, muscles are holding steady, and body fat % is going down. So far so good!
COMMENT: Losing fat, bigger boobs.
If I die today, I'll consider this my finest hour You just don't see that....ever!
