I was going to start another thread about this, but I figured this fits in nicely with this thread.
Since the beginning of June, I've been running 3 to 5 miles a day, five days a week. I've cut-out in between foods and have been eating three solid meals a day. I've lost about 20 pounds since I've started this diet and workout routine.
Here's my dilemma: when I was at 235lbs, I had 24% body fat; now, I'm at 215lbs. and still have 24% body fat. Does this mean I've lost 20 lbs. of muscle? I'm not sure I understand the whole body fat thing. Also, I've been measuring my body fat on a scale that I bought, which can somehow read it through sensors when I step on the scale. Any thoughts?
