Beast Girl, 28 days later

Today was body composition testing day #2.  Daniel and I lament that we didn't do a body comp test until January and missed getting to measure all the advancements my body made between October and January.  For me, my measurements on January 10th meant little, having no prior measurements for comparison. So, today was the true test. Sure, I had noticed improvements in my strength in the past month.  And I had noticed that my thighs now want to rip through my pants without me getting mad and hulking out!  But was that really muscle mass, or perhaps additional fat as well?  And those two pounds that the scale shows I've gained since my prior body comp test -- what do those two pounds mean?

I'll spare all the numerical details gleaned by the calipers and cut right to the chase.  In 28 days, I lost 1.3lbs of fat and gained 3.3lbs of muscle.  Holy shitake mushrooms!  Perhaps there is something after all to this CrossFit and meat-eating thing! Beast Girl needs meat!!!
