the calipers are the really the only "accurate" way to test your BF%.
I would also like to mention that 4 months ago (pre atkins) my body fat was at 19, I was not doing any exercise at that time, but I'm also "moving", cleaning, yard work, alot of hand sanding wood, etc, and last week I had BF% done again and it's actually gone up to 29.3% ......yep, I'm a skinny fat person.
If atkins is burning the actually "fat" why has my percentage increased?
Anyway, right then and there I made the decision to make time to exercise ......it will have to be at 5:00 in the morning, but I've got to get it done.
On a different (kind of) note, there is this women at my work that is EXTREMELY thin ..........not the healthy thin either ........and she was very upset because her BF was at 27 .........I was amazed considering how thin she is ................but that goes to show ......it's not always about how thin you are.
