Probably just being a 'nervous Nellie'...😣

I guess I will message my Dr and ask for dietitian referral. 🤔

Water content plays a huge role in how they work. You may have been better hydrated one day. Ideally it should be 3 hrs after setting, sleeping or working out, but that’s hard to do all the time. I only weigh first thing so conditions are the closest to same as possible each time. It gives a higher bf number but better to compare over time
|
I see the water number now. The bf is based heavily on that and they are very different. You did NOT lose that much muscle

thanks Crystaljo I love reading what you post. and your doing great, you have come a very long way. be encouraged.

@Shake...I do try to weigh when I wake up each morning (after I use the bathroom)...but I don't always wake at the same time. In general, the longer I stay in bed, the lower the weight.

I hate BMI. According to that chart, I'll still be overweight even when I hit my target weight goal. My doctor wants me under 180. I'd look like Tom Hanks in Castaway at that number. Best Wishes to all

Thanks for another great post. Going to work a bit more on protein. Sorry to read that your "fancy pants" scale is being a fickle temperamental diva. 😕 Maybe the check in with your Dr will put your mind at ease. No suggestions to offer. I don't have one of those "too big for its britches" scales. My scale just gives me my weight. 😃 You're invested in healthy changes that are working. Just me, but I would mostly put my trust in that and my feeling of wellness.

2handedjam— the BMI was created to be a SCREENING tool only. It does not take into consideration body fat vs muscle. people have so focused on BMI numbers and that is so wrong. There are much better ways to do this, read up a bit on the subject. Meantime just focus on healthier eating (not perfect) and increasing physical activity and increasing muscle strength.

Yippee, I do all of 1st chart! Today is another day of carb cycling. I don't really find this all that difficult, last Sat had a bit of cravings around 3 pm and 7 pm...those are always hard times for me but I just pushed thru. I have only lost 1 lb ( only been doing it for 2 weeks) but I do notice an increase in energy and sharpness.

@losingtowin...💙thank you for your comments and bringing a 😊 about my 'fickle' scales. I am scheduling an appt with my PCP today regarding a possible referral to nutritionist. We'll see 👀🤷♀️

@Kenna...you're right, that I may be too focused on BMI, BF, muscle mass, etc. I am eating healthier than before I started here, I have increased my physical activity (and mobility) since I started here and I am able to lift light weights on a routine basis. It's my energy/fatigue level that is flagging lately (which could also be related to my other medical diagnoses)

@2handed...I try to post a variety of visuals on weight loss/nutrition/fitness topics. Not every post is helpful to every person, but I hope that you might find SOME of the topics interesting or useful. Best wishes to you as we muddle through on our way to eventual success! 👍✌💙

Water Crystal Jo - the body including muscles contain and hold water so when you look at the comparison - your water level seems to be the indicator for the other measurements. Good for you - when you managed to get your scale to actually read those measurements in the first place - mine did one time and it was over so quick that I did not have time to write down the numbers - Like a flash it was over - have a Thankful Tuesday!
