InBody is close to DEXA for me. The scales available online have all underestimated by a yuge amount.

Not particularly accurate in terms of the actual number but you can use them to track progress, if it says you've dropped body fat it's prob true

my bf% correlates with my weight, so i'm not only not sure if the actual # is totally worthless but also not sure if the fluctuations are flame

Not bad. They don’t serve sandwiches at these bars you’re always closing down? Or you don’t get hungry for shitty food when drinking. The biggest reason I had to cut back on bourbon was because I ate so bad while drinking

GFNLHMA and I stopped drinking entirely. Previously, I was not drinking much (2-4 drinks once a week). I did have an Italian hoagie at work a couple weeks ago. I ballooned up five pounds the next day. No bread for me. I do enjoy some NA beers on occasion. I like the gluten free athletic although I don’t think the gluten matters one way or the other.
