I think I might just bite the bullet and get body fat testing, for curiosity more than anything.  I have no idea where I am and would like to know if I should be worrying about my waist or not.

Did get it done yesterday.  Hmm.  Not sure it told me much more than I could tell by sight, though reassuring I suppose that my belly fat is subcutaneous and visceral fat reading good.  Just amazing how much subcutaneous fat I fit in there!!  Reading a lot higher than you'd think from looking at those pictures.

This is what has largely kept me from doing the more expensive forms of bodyfat testing (bodpod). I realized that even with perfect knowledge, I wouldn't change anything.

Hi, seven.  Miss you. 

Hugs.

[SevenofSeven]

Just gonna say the last three weeks have been absolute shit. Getting over the influenza, mental health issues and just life.

 

I do have to pull me socks up, finding it hard even to leave the house though and things are not going to be slowing down any time soon..........

 

hmmmmm.

[Emerald_Dragonfly]

Sorry to hear that you have been having a rough time, but glad you are giving that influenza the boot.  

We are here for you.  PM if you want to chat.  

[alienjenn]
