I found my scale numbers from a year ago. This was about 10 weeks after I started Keto so it doesn’t show my full weight drop. But it does show some great trends.
Date | Weight | BMI | Body Fat % | Total Body Water % | Muscle Mass % | Body Fat lbs | Body Water lbs | Muscle Lbs |
2016-10-11 | 248.2 | 34.0 | 40.3 | 28.0 | 21.1 | 100.0 | 69.5 | 52.4 |
2017-09-29 | 197.2 | 27.0 | 30.9 | 38.0 | 28.4 | 60.9 | 74.9 | 56.0 |
Difference | -51.0 | -7.0 | -9.4 | 10.0 | 7.3 | -39.1 | 5.4 | 3.6 |
Weight is down 51 lbs. That’s a lb a week. A decent number.
Body fat dropped by almost 40 lbs of the 51 lbs lost. That’s a great result.
Water lbs is up! That’s really good and signals a recomposition.
Equally important is that my muscle lbs has gone from 53 to 56 lbs. Not huge but definitely my muscle mass has not suffered from a year of keto and fasting.
