Estimate my bodyfat!
So based on the stickie on estimating bodyfat at the top of this forum I'd guess 20%. The problem is this:
I recently had my bf% checked via caliper (multiple gyms - multiple trainers) who told me 17-18%. Then I got my bodyfat checked with bodpod (supposed to be as accurate as underwater weighing) and it told me 27%! Yikes. (I would expect bodpod to be higher because it takes into account intraabdominal and intramuscular fat but that seemed like a lot.) Worst part is I've had the bodpod done before and my past results showed around 20% bodyfat.
Here are some pics (you'll have to cut/paste the URL into your browsers):

Mostly current pics but 1 pic (where I'm obviously in better shape) from about 1 yr ago (13% bf by caliper).
