Day #30

DEXA body composition scan.
Body fat >>> 26.3% at 215lbs -- this is within 48 hours of my "cheat" day. I probably should have waited till this friday for more accuracy.
Encouraging because it's in an "acceptable" range, but still too high. My goal is to get under 22?%. Unfortunately, I didn't get a DEXA at the start of the diet, so, i have nothing to compare to. I did get a Hydrostatic test back in july of 2009 and I was at 28.5% at 226 lbs; however, it's hard to compare, because a DEXA is supposed to be a lot more accurate.

I will be getting another DEXA done in about 4 to 6 weeks.

Breakfast.
1. 2 egg whites and 1 whole egg.
2. spinach, carrot blended with water and chia.
