No More Guessing: My First Dexa Scan Results

Time to Face the Music: My Dexa Scan Spilled the Beans

I decided to get up close and personal with some cold, hard data—I got a Dexa scan. No more guesswork or optimistic mirror angles; it’s time to see what’s really going on under the hood. And let me tell you, the results were… enlightening.

The Brutal Truth in Numbers:

  • Total Weight: 96.12 kg (Yeah, that’s me.)
  • BMI: 30.25. Officially in the “obese” category. Ouch.
  • Body Fat Percentage: A whopping 32.9%. Turns out, I’m one-third marshmallow.
  • Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR): 1,947.1 kcal/day. That’s how much energy I burn doing absolutely nothing.
  • Visceral Fat: 955.4 grams of the stuff hugging my organs. Cozy, but not in a good way.
  • Subcutaneous Fat Area: 100.5 cm² of that jiggle just beneath the skin.

What’s the Deal?

Well, besides confirming that my love for pizza, lasagna, pasta, ravioli, tortellini and couch time has been more impactful than I’d like, these numbers are a slap of reality. It’s one thing to feel out of shape; it’s another to have the stats laughing at you.

But hey, at least now I have a starting point—and some entertaining data to share. If nothing else, it’s motivation served with a side of sarcasm. So here’s to turning things around and giving those numbers something to worry about.

Stick around; this could get interesting.
