Progress Chart

Although I lost a bit of lean body mass, which is something I want to avoid, it was minimal.  Almost my complete weekly weight loss was in fat mass, 5.959 pounds.  I can't really complain about that.  You may have a question about column three, Illiac skinfold thickness (mm).  I am using a body fat measuring device called the Accu-Measure.  It is available online if you're interested.  I weigh myself and take the skinfold test once a week.  I don't bother with the scale the rest of the week.  I do both every Sunday morning as soon as I get up, in my underwear, for consistency.  The skinfold test is taken at a point just above the hip bone.  It does take a bit of practice to get consistent measurements.  The main thing is consistency.  From my research, there is little variation between the Accu-Measure and more expensive body fat measuring devices, as long as consistent measurements are taken.
