Just had pizza again today.
Ordered from the local Pizza Hut.

Delivery promo for 2 regular pizzas: 1 Supreme and 1 Ham & Cheese + a free 1.5L Pepsi Max.
Oh, and 4 pieces of WingStreet Spicy Asian breaded wings.

Hummina hummina hummina...

This gets the coveted dadudemon A+ seal of approval:

👆

Also, holy shit...read that convo between XYZ and Renegade.

XYZ, you're completely and utterly wrong. Time Immemorial knows I lift. He knows I lift from our conversations in the Movie Versus Forum social thread. I've been posting about that shit, in there, for ages.

XYZ, go back through the conversation, again, with the knowledge that Time Immemorial knows I generally eat healthy and routinely exercise. Then you'll see that those smilies - 😄 - are generally him taking the piss out of you in good natured fun.

Also, finally, XYZ, I did a Keto diet for 8 weeks. Lost 15 pounds. Almost all of it fat. I have the before and after pictures to prove it. Wanna see me mostly naked? 😐

Can you verify it was fat? I doubt you can.

So, I had homecooked-style steak & cheese panini today.

It consisted of panini bread, pork steak in gravy, mozarella cheese, mayonnaise, pickle relish, caramelized onions, and a slice of lettuce.
Accompanied by a green apple slush with Nata de Coco bits.

Condiments were honey mustard and Worcestershire sauce.

Burger and onion ring sandwich.

I know, that ****ing unhealthy bread. 😐

Yes I can. Have you heard of bodyfat calipers? They exist and are, at worst, fairly accurate.

Would you shit yourself to know that I gained 3 lbs of muscle during this diet? Possibly more...my quads got bigger by about an inch.

Sorry DDM, but there arer too many varying factors.

😆 😆 😆

I had Chinese-style fried chicken (fresh chicken cutlets in a batter made with lots of onion and garlic powders; marinated it for about half a day to let the flavors sink in 😉) and chopsuey, served with crab rice.

Condiments were homemade ketchup (made from fresh tomatoes, tomato paste, vinegar, and sugar) and Thai sweet chili sauce.

Sounds delicious

Isn't that bbq?

For BBQ, I usually use tomato-based seasonings. No flour.

There's no need to apologize for your ignorance: there are not very many varying factors, at all. You measure the fat with the calipers, add up the numbers, look at the chart, get the percentage, then do a teeny tiny bit of math to figure out how many pounds of fat you lost from your total weight loss.

Not very difficult, at all. Not many "factors" to account for, using that method. It's a very tried and true method. However, I will admit that it does not work for the morbidly obese: they have too much fat to get an accurate measure with the calipers. I think with the morbidly obese, you have to do the water tank submersion measure (which is generally seen as the most accurate possible way of getting a bodyfat measure).

Edit - Here's a nice quote for you: "Under ideal conditions, caliper tests predict fat percentage within plus or minus 3.5 percent of your true body composition, as defined by ACSM." That's decently accurate. It gets much more accurate when you drop below 12% bodyfat because there is almost no subcutaneous fat to account for in the measurement (which is usually what gives you the 3.5% variance).

Anyway, I hope you've learned quite a bit from our discussions. Here's a recap:

Bacon and cheese can be part of a healthy diet.
Keto-diets are clinically proven to be effective fat-loss approaches.
Bodyfat calipers can give a fairly decent measure of your bodyfat if done properly.
Time Immemorial definitely definitely knew, prior to this thread, that I both work out and eat healthy from prior conversations in the Movie Versus Forum.

Breakfast

Eggs, Avacado and some bread and coffee

Lunch: Opps I had a late breakfast

Dinner: 3 slices of home made BBQ chicken thin crust pizza.

My breakfast today (technically, yesterday) was Penne Arabiatta.

Drink was fresh coconut juice straight from the husk.

My breakfast this morning was a whey protein shake mixed with half and half.

My second breakfast was 4 fried eggs and bark thins (dark chocolate almonds with sea salt).

They have a bod pod method that uses pressure to obtain body fat fairly quickly and is supposedly as accurate as the water tank method. The Air Force lets us sign up for it all the time. I'm not sure how available this method is though. It only takes about 1-2 minutes though.

That sounds cool. I've never heard of that. Of course, I was a personal trainer over a decade ago so it should be no surprise that I'm behind the times.

I hadn't heard about it until recently. the HAWC (Health and Wellness Center) on base hosted it. You basically show up and then strip down to spandex shorts and a diving cap and then get in a pod that they pressurize. This is suppose to get a pretty accurate measure of your body fat. i was fairly depressed with the score, but when I think about my diet I guess I should be more surprised that it isn't higher. lol

I read about how it works but I don't understand how it determines lean body mass and bodyfat.

It basically is a volume measurer. It takes into account your lung capacity and then it determines your body's volume.

So where does the lean and fat bodymass measures come into play?

Some people have denser bones than others so that will increase their mass.

Some people have "marbleized" muscles (intramuscular fat). So I'm wondering how a volume measure is going to determine composition?

Reading the "how does it work" document I found, it seems to use formulas based on the average human and they claim 1% as the margin of error.
