Why is it important to know your body fat percentage?
The majority of us determine the success of our weight loss by the number displayed on our bathroom scales. Unfortunately, weight alone cannot distinguish whether the weight comes from fat or muscle. Knowing body fat is more helpful in weight control than just reading number on a scale. Think about it we all know someone who is skinny but out of shape, or someone who appears heavy but is actually fit.
What amount of fat is needed, acceptable, and considered unhealthy?
If you look around Internet, you will see a lot of different recommendation for body fat percentage. Following information is based on World Health Organization and National Institutes of Health (US) recommendation, and takes age into account.

Why your BMR is important for weight loss?
Just to put it simple, BMR is the amount of calories you'd burn if you stayed in bed all day. It does not include exercise, typing on the computer, walking, talking, sitting, or even thinking for that matter. Yet, your BMR is important because it account for 60%-70% of calories you burn each day. By knowing your BMR, you are able to create your weight loss plan more effectively.
