What is your actual body fat content? And I mean by a real test like a DEXA scan, not calipers.

whoops, didnt see this. No real test done. My scale (that i haven't jumped on in forever) says like 35% at the last "scan".

Those scales use electrical resistance as a procy measure of water density, a proxy of muscle to fat ratio. It's a tenuous link and isn't all that accurate. If you can afford the $100, go get a DEX scan.
