body fat

[slimminggirl]

I am confused. I weigh 149lbs and am 5ft2, a little over weight for my height but getting there. How many lbs should I lose to get to 25% body fat? Sorry if this is a stupid question.

About 130-135 lbs would be about 25% BF. Some other things go into factor like your measurements (waist, neck, arms, legs), so that's just a rough estimate (thus the 5 lbs difference).

Awesome thank you I thought it was around that but wanted to make sure I was right. xx

Do you know Your body fat now? What are you going off of?

According to the charts in a doctors office I've been morbidly obese since I was in high school lol...those don't take athletes into account
