Hi guys, I have another question (not sure where else to post it so I write it here hoping somebody will read). I weigh in every 7-10 days and I check not only my weight but also my fat and water % and stuff. During last 2 weigh ins I lost a bit of weight, but my body fat increased a bit (and water continues the same). Is there an explanation for this (other than the scale was lying to me and I actually didnt lose weight)?
thanks!

One problem with body-fat scales is that they are often inaccurate. Many variables affect the results, including how hydrated you are, when you last ate and exercised, and even whether your feet are highly calloused or dirty, as well as the type and quality of the product itself. Studies have found that different body-fat scales produce widely varying readings and that these often differ from standard methods of fat measurement. (Devices that also have hand electrodes tend to fare somewhat better.) In a study published in Obesity Facts in 2008, scales with only foot electrodes underestimated body fat in people with lots of body fat and overestimated it in leaner people. Even the manuals say the devices may be less accurate for elderly people, highly trained athletes, children and people with osteoporosis, among others. Consumer Reports no longer tests body-fat scales because of their inaccuracies.

So I would use it as a guideline to help you stay on course, but don't use for exact results.

Thanks Suzi, this helps a lot; I was really wondering why that would happen. I do believe I lost weight, but I would have expected to also lost a bit of fat (and maybe increase muscle a bit as well), but not.
