Calipers say 22% BF...does that look right?! (PICS)

Well I'm pretty positive I'm less than 25%. We have a bod pod at our local university and I was at 24% about 2 weeks ago...and that was 5 lbs ago.

Maybe I just look higher because of the way I hold my fat???

That's a possibility. You mentioned also that you're not overly concerned with BF% numbers, just the ideal 'look' you have in mind. Consider the possibility though that the look you're after may be that of 10% BF or whatever... just don't ignore the numbers completely - they do help to keep track and let you know where you're at.

I agree gbrice. You're right I don't know what my BF percentage will be for my ideal look I want...I'll just go by a combination of look and % and see how it goes. I still have work to do, so I'll just keep focusing on my diet and cardio for now...

Btw, I posted my diet up at the beginning of June and got some feedback. Made some changes based on that. I've obviously lessened my calories some to adjust for weight loss, but from what I posted I'm doing the same basic diet.
