Re: The final 10lbs!!
10 to 12% is not a normal body fat reading,only very fit people have this reading you are right it is what athletes have, its the least you can go without having problems, therefore called essential fat, normally models, celebrities have even lower body fat then that and they are the ones who have health problems, not anyone above 12%

Understanding Your Body Fat Percentage
all these sites and more say 12% is the lowest a woman can go before it falls into an unhealthy range and trust me, i wouldnt do anything unhealthy.
You do realize the highly educational and reliable websites you referenced all say that even athletes don’t have that little body fat. Hey, to each their own. Good Luck!
