MR Forum Fit Club: Back from a week in the woods

[Paul F.]

Better 240 and die later, than 240 and die sooner...
Keep it up.
I've stagnated about 20lbs heavier than you... but feel better for getting some semi-regular exercise.
More diet modifications coming.

Weighed myself this morning - why bother? Still at 240. Now, I've been very diligently exercising for about two months so I would have hoped to see some loss. But what I do know: I have certainly lost some flab around my middle and I am very pleased by that. I can only assume that I've been adding muscle, especially from rowing. But I wonder how much weight in fat I may have lost. Maybe five pounds? Can I have added that much muscle mass?

Does anybody have experience with those body-fat measureing scales? The seem like a gimmick to me but I really don't know.
