Latest DEXA Scan: Mixed Results and New Direction

Earlier this week, two days before Thanksfeast Day, Stacia and I went back to the Washington Institute of Sports Medicine to get another DEXA body composition scan.  It was our second experience there and like the first time, I felt like my results were less than optimal.

Two years ago at my first DEXA scan, I was 50 years old, weighed in at 167.4 lbs and had a total body fat of 16.7%.  Despite the statistics showing I was in the top 1% of body comp for guys my age (and top 8% of 25 year old guys), I was disappointed.  After all, my previous most recent body comp test showed me at about 5.4% body fat - but that was in a Bod Pod and not nearly as accurate as a DEXA scan.

After our first DEXA scan, Stacia and I planned to go back for regular scans every 6 months or so.  That didn't happen
