    Or not, if you read the article on calorie counting in last months Men's Fitness... Very eye opening for anyone trying to lose fat.

    But it's in men's fitness magazine which is a tabloid devoted to selling supplements and getting everyone to a generic body shape.

    Losing fat is simple - eat sensibly and make sure you exercise. A real life example - in the last 5 days I've lost 4lb. And I had a smellyburger on weds and 2 very tasty and fattening cheese toastie on Friday. I also exercised a lot, ate sensibly . As someone who was already underweight I found it easy to lose 4lb. In the same period my body fat percentage dropped while my muscle mass was maintained. Anyone who says they can't lose weight either has no willpower or is reads too many celebrity diet books.

    It really is simple

    How are you are measuring that out of interest?

    Really inaccurate but consistently inaccurate scales they're totally incorrect at every ready but because they're consistent it's handy - they were on offer in Argos mate

    Sadly Dabz, they're not even consistently inaccurate. I thought your quoted figures were excessivly high! lol

    The only way to get somewhere near consistency, is to have maximum body hydration. This means consuming minimum 2.5 litres of water for at least 3 days prior to weighing. I looked into these and had a long chat with the body composition specialist at our gym to ask which is best to get. Simple answer was don't bother, get calipers as they're the only way of accurate measuring.

    For someone your size, any more than 1-1.5lbs of weight loss per week, is either water or catabolic musle loss. And even that definately wouldn't happen when your diet includes burgers and cheese toasties! lol

    As a rough guide, healthy fat loss is around 4lbs a week if your extremely overweight, 2lbs if you're about my size, and a few ounces to 1.5lbs if you're already slim (which I think you fit into!)

    This is why you see people who don't eat anything, and constantly in the gym looking thin, but with no real body definition. It's becasue the body is breaking down their muscles to feed the body as there is no fat or carb intake left to feed the exercise. There's a few like that where I work who all think they're amazing as they're so skinny, but they're actually really unhealthy and don't look very good at all.

    Invest in some good body calipers and throw the scales in the bin! Muscle weighs more than fat anyway (which you know) so why worry about your weight? Just focus on what the mirror tells you, and your clothes!

    (I know you already know this stuff Dabz, not teaching granny to suck eggs. Just posting for info for those that PM'd me about it!)

    I used calipers too...I know a bit about what I'm talking about or I wouldn't bother posting it. Body fat loss this week was accurate as far as the calipers AND scales both gave the same result. Plus measurements with the tape measure.
