Soo... Are you cutting fat? Or muscle?

Cause I know you only have like what 7% body fat? ;)

So that means you're going to have to cut muscle out too...

Cause it weighs more and you don't have enough fat to lose that amount of weight.

thats a pretty hefty goal in less than one month.

5 weeks. I figure 2lbs/week.

Where can I get those body fat % scales (calorimeter?)

bioelectric impedance, you can pick one up at sports authority, big five etc. Omron makes a really good one for the price you pay I think new they run around $50. Don't spend your money on an industrial grade medical, lab, research one, as their not that fun as they usually require pads or actual insertion of a sensor.

Still can't find ANY local places that has any thing for body fat %.

BTW- Current weight 167. Finals are over so I plan on getting some morning runs in during the break.

164 from weigh in LAST night. Stupid holidays and depression got the best of me...

Call some local gyms around you and see if they do bodyfat testing.

I'm going to see if I can get this done tomorrow.

I've tried every sports store in my area and no one has a damn caliper or anything to measure body fat.

I'll also see if I can get a pic posted sometime soon.

If your going to do it yourself, look for a device that works via bio impedence.

After a quick google search, I came up with this...

Does this look legit?

omron makes a great product. You'll see a lot of health clubs use them. With a lot of impedence devices it has a 1-3% error margin.
