[Lifehacker] 2:25:28 PM     How to Measure Your Body Fat at Home [New Years Resolutions] . You're out to lose a few pounds in the New Year, so you braved the scale to record your starting weight—but what about your body fat percentage? The Health Central site offers an online calculator that lets you calculate your body fat percentage at home. All you need is your current weight and a cloth tape measure. You enter your age, weight, gender, and a few measurements (for women hips, thighs, and wrist) and you get back your body fat percentage along with where you stand amongst most Americans. If you're like me this home test will be just as sobering an experience as just getting on the scale, but it's another way to record the "before" numbers you can compare your progress to as you shed pounds and inches.
