Midpoint Inbody scan came in at 29.5% body fat (previous 29.2%).
I’ll be honest — I felt a little disappointed at first.
But then I looked at the full picture.
📏 Waist:
- Feb 15: 30.08 in
- Feb 28: 26.58 in
That’s a 3.5 inch drop.
📏 Hips:
- Jan 31: 33.95 in
- Feb 28: 33.47 in
Trending down.
Clothes are looser.
I feel leaner.
Visually I can see the change.
So what does this tell me?
I’m losing inches — especially in my midsection — even if the InBody fluctuated 0.3%.
And here’s what I’m owning:
I’ve been sleeping 4–6 hours while training 5x/week.
That’s under-recovery.
Sleep impacts cortisol, water balance, and body fat readings.
This midpoint didn’t say “you gained fat.”
It said: “Fix your recovery.”
🔧 Adjustments Moving Forward:
❌ No slashing calories
❌ No extreme cardio
❌ No panic
✔ Prioritizing 7–8 hours of sleep
✔ Keeping protein high (130g+)
✔ Continuing strength training
✔ Trusting inches + trend over one scan
Because if my waist is down 3.5 inches… that’s real progress.
Midpoints aren’t report cards.
They’re feedback.
And I’m still fully locked in for 25% by October.
Saturday reflection.
Sunday reset.
Next phase = better sleep, better recovery, better results.
We keep going 💪
