Female Body Fat Percentage Chart

Curious about your body fat percentage?

Good news! I have you covered, but to be accurate you should use both charts below. The first chart includes height and weight. The second chart will give you more of a general body fat percentage range for women based on age group.

Step 1: Find your height on the left side of the chart below. Next, match your weight on the top of the chart with your corresponding height. The number where your height and weight meet is an estimate of your body fat percentage. The color tells you what category you fall into based on your weight. After you have your body fat percentage estimate go to step two.

Step 2: Now that you know your body fat percentage, you can use the chart below to find the ideal range for your age.

For example, if you’re body fat percentage was 31% and you were 28 years of age, you would fall into the healthy range (green).

Scientists Share Bad News: Nature Wants You to Gain Weight, Even If You Don’t Want to.

New System Works with Scientific Research to Put Nature on Your Side and Burn More Fat: 12 to 23 Pounds in Just 21 Days.

If you’ve tried everything you can think of to lose weight, you’ve probably noticed just how difficult it is.

You get plenty of exercise, you eat only healthy foods, and you even eat multiple meals a day, just like the experts tell you to.

But no matter what you do, you just can’t seem to shed the fat.

In fact, even when you do everything right, it can still be virtually impossible to lose weight, and it’s not your fault.

The reality is that nature doesn’t want you to lose that stubborn body fat.

Nature Wants to Fatten You Up.

Our bodies are designed to withstand incredible challenges.

The human body is a perfect survival machine: it can store up fat–and then use that fat for energy months or even years later.

The only problem is… you don’t want to hold on to that fat anymore!

In the modern world, we simply don’t need body fat to stay alive.

Unfortunately, excess fat is actually one of the most deadly conditions in the world, and it’s directly responsible for many life-threatening illnesses and serious quality-of-life problems, including:

  •  Heart disease and stroke that can end your life or cause severe disability.
  • Diabetes, which may lead to constant injections or possibly amputations.
  • Depression, trouble sleeping, fatigue, and back pain, perhaps even arthritis.

It’s ironic: the fat that used to keep us alive during famines is now one of the most common killers of Americans.

It ruins families, destroys your quality of life, and forces many people to live on expensive prescription drugs… all while the pharmaceutical companies continue to raise their prices.

But there is a solution.

Tapping Into Nature’s Hidden Ability to Burn Body Fat.

Even though nature wants to fatten you up, it also has a built-in system for burning that fat and giving you the lean, healthy body you want.

Once your body fat is created, you can then use that fat for energy.

Best of all, you don’t need to exercise 1 hour every day just to shed the pounds.

Believe it or not it only takes the light walk to keep your body healthy.

Better yet, you can force your body into fat-burning mode using an easy-to-follow 3 week program.

If you’ve wasted your time with “magic fat-burning foods” in the past, you already know that there’s no secret weapon that can obliterate your body fat.

However…

There is a way to activate your body’s natural ability to burn body fat, and many people are experiencing as much as 23 pounds of weight loss within this new 3 week diet.

Burn 12 to 23 Pounds of Fat in Just 3 Weeks.

It’s surprisingly easy to activate your fat-burning mode.

But the reality is that many Americans spend 20 hours a day creating fat rather than burning it.

So even if you’re eating perfectly healthy food, you’ll continue to gain weight while you’re stuck in that fat-creation mode.

Here’s the good news…

You can turn on the fat-burning mode in your body with the easy-to-follow steps in this new program that guarantees a minimum of 12 pounds of weight loss in just 3 weeks.

It’s called The 3 Week Diet, and it’s an incredibly simple system that works with nature, not against it.

The 3 Week Diet in 3 Easy Phases.

One of the important elements of this diet is that it doesn’t just tell you what foods to eat.

It also gives you 3 Phases to turn on the fat-burning mode in your body.

In fact, during Phase 2, you could lose 1 pound per day… and some people lose even more.

But it’s not just a diet plan. You’ll also find out why those difficult, one-hour long exercise routines never seem to burn the fat, and how you get all the exercise you need in just 20 minutes of easy exercise.

21 Days is All It Takes.

Many exercise and diet programs try to give you a long, difficult system.

The reason they do that is so you think you’re getting a lot of value for the money, even if you don’t lose that much weight.

Those companies are hoping you’ll jump through all the hoops and read their 400-page books, and think, “wow, they really gave me a lot of stuff for just $30.”

But in reality, it doesn’t matter how much stuff you get… it matters how much weight you lose!

That’s why it’s so important to me that The 3 Week Diet guarantees that you’ll lose 12 to 23 pounds in 21 days.

That’s more than one pound per day!

And it really couldn’t be any easier.

  • No difficult exercise routines that involve sprinting up and down the stairs.
  • No bad-tasting food that you can’t pronounce the names of.
  • No yo-yo dieting that causes you to gain all the weight back after you lose it.

These results are permanent because The 3 Week Diet actually forms long-term habits, without you even having to think about it!

Get The 3 Week Diet and Burn Up to 23 Pounds.

Nature’s fat-burning power is easy to tap into.

All you have to do is follow the 3 Phases in The 3 Week Diet, and you could burn up to one pound of fat per day.

Plus, we’re serious about getting this solution out to everyone who wants it.

3 Types of Foods to Avoid to Lose Weight and Be Healthier

Three Foods to Avoid If You Want to Lose Weight (and be healthy too!)

Losing weight has a lot to do with avoiding unhealthy foods. You can work out as hard as you want, but if you’re replacing those burnt calories with unhealthy foods, chemicals and extra fats, you’re probably not going to see much in terms of results.

Here are three foods to avoid if you want to lose weight.

==> Anything Microwavable

Anything that’s frozen or designed to be microwaved should be avoided.

Frozen foods are packed full of all kinds of unhealthy chemicals. Just take a look at the back of the box. How many of the ingredients can you actually read? How many of them sound like whole foods?

Also, the level of fats, sodium and sugars are extremely high. Many TV dinners that people eat in one meal on their own are actually three or more servings – meaning you’re getting much, much more fat than you think if you just skimmed the ingredients.

==> High Calorie Drinks

Drinks are one of the biggest sources of sugar and extraneous sugars in the standard American diet. A lot of people just don’t realize how much fat is in these various beverages.

Coca-Cola, Pepsi and 7 Up, for example, all contain large amounts of both sugar and calories. People who drink Coke instead of water almost always end up overweight.

Another common offender is caffeine. Coffee itself has very few calories. However, once you add in the milk or cream plus the sugar, it suddenly becomes a high calorie drink.

Even worse are drinks like lattes, Americanos, cappuccinos and Frappuchinos. These extremely high calorie drinks don’t “feel” like eating a meal, but can often contain just as many calories.

==> Processed Meats

Finally, processed meats are also poor choices if you want to lose weight.

It’s no mystery if you look at what really goes into processed meats. It’s often the fattiest parts, blended skin, various body parts that couldn’t be sold separately, all mixed with copious amounts of fat.

In addition, these processed meats are usually full of preservatives, chemicals and sodium.

Stick to lean, whole meats and avoid processed meats. You’ll consume fewer calories and you’ll be eating healthier overall as well.

These are three foods to avoid, although it won’t be easy at first, but it will help your overall health.
