Bella, are you a woman (I assume so by the name, but...)?

16-18% body fat seems too low to me for a healthy woman. Isn't

that getting into the range where strange things start to happen

like cessation of menstruation, etc.? 16-18% is generally

considered healthy for a man (not a bodybuilder, just a regular

guy), according to what I've read, but women should be more in

the 20-25% range. If you are a guy, well hey, go for it. If I'm

mistaken on this, I'm sure someone here will correct me ;-).
