I lost too much weight this week and also lost .6 percent skeletal muscle mass, down from 38.6 to 38.0 percent, confirmed by increased sarcopenia - lower grip strength and unsteady gait. I want to continue working on increasing my protein consumption. I may have to monitor my weight daily to avoid any further drastic decreases in weight.

132.8 lb Lost so far: 23.2 lb. Still to go: 0 lb. Diet followed reasonably well.

Men's Health says one gram per pound of target weight. Hit it today.

Wow! You did lose a lot of weight this week! If you want to weigh every day, then go ahead and do it. If your weight goes too low, you will find out after the fact. Knowing your weight will help you adjust your menu so you can eat enough to maintain your goal weight, which is not too far off now. :) Your protein was good today!

Whoa ! Amazing. Keep up your monitoring.

Chris, the BMI chart I was looking at has the healthy range from 18.5 - 24.9 so you are getting really close to being under weight. Be careful.

Thanks for the heads up, Deb.

Deb, I have beefed up (pun intended) my protein as well as my total calorie intake. Better safe than sorry.

I have been reading up on the Intermittent Fasting. Pretty interesting. Switching up my workout in the morning too, we'll see if I do burn more fat.

Awesome

Great Goals.Great Loss! How do you calculate your skeletal muscle % & body age? That's really cool....but then so are you! :)

18 Nov 14 by member: myawethinTICself

I use an Omron full body composition scale which measures skeletal muscle percentage by running an electrical current through the body. The scale calculates body age based on muscle and body fat percentage, height, weight, I believe (don't have the instructions handy) using tables.

Great loss, keep going you are doing so well.

Most mid-to-high range scales use bio-electric impedance analysis. Omron claims theirs is more accurate because it uses hands and feet.
