I am a medium sized woman ie 5ft5 size 10 on top 12 bottom. I weigh 65kg but have at least 30% body fat (I had this measured in a free personal training session a while back so this could have changed)
I wondered if this was normal as it seems very high considering I am not tiny but am certainly not fat. I exercise properly (ie 45 mins cardio and 15 mins weights) 2 or 3 days per week, and do some exercise like walking almost every day. In summer I am better about discipline as I have roughly twice the energy and can therefore cope with the 6am wake up times so I can go before work! in summer I average 4 times per week at the gym.
I don't want to lose weight as I'd say i'm healthy - I have been both size 8 and size 16 before and both looked awful on me.
i wondered if this means I have fat sort of below the surface and how harmful this is? My tummy is not big though I do have a little round one, and my waist is small and I think this is meant to be good.
Anyway any comments/advice much appreciated...
