12 days in lost a kilo. From 94 to 92.7
Went for a DEXA scan today. Interesting process and chat with the operator / fat consultant.
I'm carrying 30% of my weight as fat and it should be below 25% overall.
The results break it down in to areas and the majority of mine is around the stomach / waist. The danger area for men.
Even though my muscle level and bone density was good, his opinion was that I should still work on muscle build as well as the fat loss. This is not something I have done previously. All my gym work has always been cardio.
Another thing he said which I haven't heard / read was investing money in your body like you do other things. He advised personal trainer for the gym to give some balanced regimes, again something I have been reticent to do.
All in all, money well spent.
