Well the results are in. According to my dexa scan I'm 18.5% bf. Doc said I have some good muscle just need to shave the fat. I'm so relieved that it wasn't what the trainers said at 30% Nov 1st. But I did lose alot of weight since then. Started at 251. Got down to 232 b4 my wedding. After wedding and a 5 nights in the bahamas I only gained 5 lbs. I still trained every day over there and 3 of those days did fasted cardio ontop of weights. Overall I'm very happy with results.

I'm sure it was quite a bit more honestly. Assure from water I think I lost almost all fat in those 18 lbs. But either way I'm happy bro. Thanks to you and zilla, jen, bricks , fd. ,Bundy, tool, snake, stone Everyone who stepped in to offer advice and get me where I'm at.

Oh btw the doc had me step on a scale that weighed me at 237. The dexa machine said I was 244. He said it doesn't actually weigh you like the scale just gives a projected weight based on volume of the lungs somehow.. weird lol.

I tried to locate a facility with a DEX scan. The only one I could find was in the city for $175. :32 (6):

If your trainer told you that you were 30%, he's either blind or has not a clue. lol You're doing well Sil, keep it up.

Actually a trainer at one of the gyms I go to did the caliper test. My bb coach never told me what bf% he thought I was. And thanks man Busting it.
