Nope, no idea of the percentage of fat to everything else.
I firmly believe in the immersion method over calipers, because I would
know which places on me to pinch for the most (and least) favorable
readings.
I do know that my blood pressure is 95/60, resting pulse 80, and "bad"
cholesterol was under 150 last year. My DO often kids me that with those
numbers, I will live forever unless hit by a bus.
Because of thumb reconstruction later today, I will have to nix weight
training (a regular part of my life) until autumn, so I imagine I will
drop some more body fat due to a planned increase in kinetic activities
like power walking and wind sprints from three times weekly to four or
five.
Wonder if WMU has an immersion scale...you have piqued my curiousity.

Well, I'm deffinately not fit....I keep swearing that I'm going to work on
it....(sigh)
You'd think that since I just moved to a place that has a couple of swimming
pools, a weight room, golf course, and jogging track, plus my living room now
has enough room to work out in and my roomie just bought the Tae-Bo DVD, that
I'd have done something. *sigh*
Well, I'm going to make the big push. Deffinately 5, hopefully 10 lbs. by
my brothers wedding at the end of Sept.

I've found that making a goal of "x pounds" is usually pretty frustrating for
people to maintain. What looks like a better option is to make a goal of
"every day 30 minutes" or something like that. Even walking around the
neighborhood could count. Just doing something, anything, tends to get you
into the habit of doing it.
