    @midwesterner85 How does a scale determine BF???

    @quiltingjaine It uses bio-electrical impedance technology; the same method used by most scales that measure BF%. There are variances in accuracy, particularly related to hydration. The particular scale I'm using has 4 contact points (2 hands, 2 feet) and has always been closer to being accurate than any other bio-electrical impedance device used, though it has also always been the highest of any method for measuring body fat - higher than calculations based on measurement of body parts, significantly higher than other BI devices, higher than calipers, and even higher than Dexa (which is known to be unforgiving). For my last Dexa, the scale was 0.3% higher than Dexa on the same day; so it is close when hydration is at a certain point. Much of that depends on what was consumed over the past 1-4 days.

    The last time I used a different bio-electrical impedance device, it was handheld and gave me a BF% of 9.4%. This is typical of other bio-electrical impedance devices (both scales and hand-helds) that are usually much lower than the true BF%.

    Ultimate goal - 140
    R22 goals: hit macros - 30% protein and fat, 40% carbs; walk when Oregon rain allows and strength train 3 days a week; read something inspiring and meditate daily.
    5'3", 64 yrs.
    Weight 2/2016 - 218
    Lost 68#, regained 12 (to 156) on metabolism reset. Time to slowly drop the last 15!
    R15 end weight 151.2
    R16 end weight 151.4
    R17 end weight 151
    R18 end weight 150.4
    R19 end weight 149.6
    R20 end weight 149.3
    R21 end weight 149

    I'm in again! Thanks for keeping this going. It's easy to feel we're not progressing or we're slower than everyone else, but seeing the round by round numbers and other people's ups as well as downs is reassuring and inspiring.

    11/9 - - 148.6
    That's an encouraging start. :-) Weather is on and off, but I'm hoping to sneak in a walk today between rains.

    11/10 - 147.2
    Woot! I see my internal fat hoarder has finally decided to let go of some of her treasures. About time! I don't expect it to happen again for a while, but that's okay. This will keep me sticking to the plan for the next 7.2 pounds at least!

    11/11 - 148.2
    I thought yesterday might be a fluke. That's ok. Still moving the right direction and sticking to eating plan.

    11/12 - 148.2
    Heading out for a long walk - expecting rain later and the rest of the week and big winds tomorrow. Have a lovely Sunday, all!

    Age 60, 5'4" [lost 1/2" somewhere, not the measurement I wanted to lose]
    SW 195 [joined MFP Nov 2015, lost 9.5# & got serious Jan 2017]
    1st Goal 150 in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet.
    2nd Goal 145 = normal BMI
    UGW Range 140 - 145

    I weigh first thing in the morning when I get up. My scale only has 1/2# increments, and I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. Comments reflect prior day.
    10/20/17: Oooh, I like this thread! I've been weighing myself daily since April, keeping track in MFP Food Notes, and logging my "official" weigh-ins on Saturdays. I've been amazed at how much my weight can fluctuate from day to day, depending on eating out or processed foods, adult beverages, net calories green or red, etc. Daily weigh-ins really help me see cause and effect with high sodium, too much sugar, etc. I don't get freaked now by a jump on the scale, since I know what I did to cause it, and what I can do to change it.
    R20 SW 166.0 (my round 1)
    R20 LW 164.5 EW 166.5
    R21 LW 163.0 EW 164.0
    Round 21
    10/30: 166.0 Very sedentary day (church, visit parents & 3 hour round trip) following high carb day, no surprise. Fitbit 3,888 steps, 250+ steps 5/14 hours & 7 floors. At least I drank 12c water.
    10/31: 165.0 Fitbit 13,521 steps, 250+ steps 12/14 hours & 48 floors and 12c water
    11/01: 164.5 Fitbit 13,993 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 hours (boom) & 40 floors; 12c water
    11/02: 164.0 Dog-walk day plus active evening: two loads of laundry, made large couscous salad, cooked triple batch cream of leek soup & baked lemon zucchini cake. Fitbit 16,109 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 42 floors; 13c water.
    11/03: 165.0 Expected. Net calories red plus non-dog walk day plus shortened workday (fewer stairs breaks) plus inactive evening (busy-ness & stress of past 3 days took its toll). Fitbit 8,110 steps, 250+ steps 10/14 hours & 20 floors. 12c water.
    11/04: 163.0 Wow, unexpected. Of course, net calories green, dog walk day & kept busy around the house after work. Fitbit 16,188 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 hours (boom) & 49 floors (plenty of stairs breaks at work plus home); 12c water.
    11/05: 164.5 Pizza for supper, net calories red & 12c water. Walked dog 3.58 miles. Fitbit 16,837 steps, 250+ steps 9/14 hours, and 28 floors.
    11/06: 166.0 Ack! Can you say sodium? Not great eating all day but active. Then caved when hubby got out tortilla chips & salsa con queso in the evening. Usually I ignore his snacking, but he was sitting next to me on the couch. I will have to forbid snacking next to me in future. Net calories red > 500 and sodium > 4,600mg oh my! 10c water and Fitbit 15,573 steps, 250+ steps 9/14 hours & 20 floors. Will be drinking lots of water today.
    11/07: 164.0 Better. Net calories red 12, sodium green & 15c water. Fitbit 14,887 steps, 250+ steps 14/14 hours (boom) & 41 floors.
    11/08: 164.0 Non-dog walk day, net calories red 319 & 12c water. Fitbit 7,056 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 28 floors. On to the next round!

    11/09: 163.5 Active day, including dog walk 3.09 miles. Fitbit 16,212 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 46 floors. 10c water.
    11/10: 163.0 Non-dog walk day. Fitbit 7,901 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 hours & 34 floors. 10c water & net calories green (barely).
    11/11: 164.5 That's what happens after net calories -362 and super high sodium (smoked salmon & crackers w/ hubby). Walked dog 3.86 miles & yardwork prepping for winter. Fitbit 16,147 steps, 250+ steps 11/14 hours (day at home) & 35 floors. 14c water, need to keep that up today.
    11/12: 163.5 Net calories red, sodium green, 13c water. Walked dog 2.34 miles. Fitbit 10,439 steps, 250+ steps 7/14 hours & 15 floors.

    Goals: I've got exercise down but need accountability with my logging and staying close to goal. I want to be within 100 calories of goal every day, or within 300 overall when I look at my weekly average.

    Day/Weight/Comment
    11/9 - 195.4 - Going into dinner with 600 calories left so I should be good, although we are doing Tim Hortons so I'll have to resist the urge to buy a treat. (ended the day with +6 calories)
    11/10 - 195.2 - I will end around -100 today as I intend to have hot chocolate before bed. Expecting my weight will be up tomorrow morning. Lots of sodium today. (-102 end of day)
    11/11 - 195.8 - up due to sodium as expected. I'm planning to make cookies tonight as I'm sitting with 400+ calories left. Love long run days. (+40 end of day)
    11/12 - 195.6 - clearly didn't drink enough yesterday although I've got hormonal stuff going on right now too. Expecting food to be difficult unless I put in some cardio tonight. Rungry from yesterday.

    ROUND 22 (first round for me)

    Day/Weight/Comment
    11/9 - 143.4 - (missed this day starting late) this plateau weigh has held 5 days
    11/10 - 142.4 - may be dehydrated, great workout yesterday!
    11/11 - 142.0 - under calorie goal yesterday and ran 25 minutes. Usually I don't get 2 days of loss after a plateau breaks :)
    11/12 - 143.2 - I do bounce around. But also: I was super emotional last night about my daughter (who is not choosing to speak to us, heartbreak) and I overate; not over calories, but ate back all my exercise calories which I know is a bad habit.

    @nikki062181 - I am so sorry you all are going through this. It is so hard to lose a loved one. My mom passed away 5 years ago and I still have tough days sometimes. I will keep you, your mom, and your family in my prayers.

    I’m traveling for work for 6 days this round so I plan to be more strict on those days. I'm feeling really good about my new way of eating. The last few months I’ve been following a whole food plant based diet. Not only do I feel great, but my weight has been dropping effortlessly.

    Female, 5'4"
    Starting Weight: 135 lbs
    End of Year Goal: 112 lbs
    Goal This Round: Average lower than 115.5 lbs & try to see 114

    11/8 - 116 - Coming in from round 21.

    11/9 - 116 - Ran 3.5 miles & lifted weights this morning. Traveling but brought my scale. 1650 cal.
    11/10 - 115 - Ran 3.5 miles & lifted weights this morning. Being more strict while traveling paid off. I just ate a lot of salad & fruit the last couple days. 1650 cal.
    11/11- 114 - Played 3 sets of tennis this morning. A new low. I can’t believe how easily my body is letting go of this weight. 1500 cal.
    11/12 - 115 - Played 3 sets of tennis this morning.

    completed my first round for round 22 and was very happy with my progress. My SW for Round 21 was 121.8 and EW was 119.6. My goal for this round is to get to 118.5. This would bring me to 30 lbs down from my highest.

    11/9: 120.4- Up from yesterday but still trending down overall. I'm okay with starting here.
    11/10: 120.6- Yesterday I ate really over my calories so I'm surprised that I'm not up more. My husband had surgery yesterday and I ate some cookies waiting for him and then got fast food after. Today was a new day though and while I was not "perfect", I did make some good choices. I did not order Mt Dew at a work lunch today, I avoided the cupcakes at work, and I only ate 2 cheese biscuits at Red Lobster.
    11/11: 120.4- Surprised by my TOM today, which makes the last few days make a little bit more sense. But then I completed my first ever 5K! I ran it in 43 minutes and averaged 4.3 mph. 6 months ago when I could barely run for 3 minutes straight, i didn't think this was possible. So good day!
    11/12: 121.0- Yuck- I celebrated my 5K accomplishment yesterday with nachos at Taco Bell and then later on got more nachos at a football game, so lots of salt and some bad choices. Today was much better as I didn't eat out at all and have had lots of water. Hoping that I'm down tomorrow

    My goodness, the time slipped up on me! I didn't realize that it was the start of round 22 already! Anyway, I ended this round lighter than I started. So without farther ado, it's on to the next goal! I've got plenty more weight I need to discard! To say I lost it indicates it was a mistake, but when I say I discarded it, everyone knows I did it on purpose!

    11/10: 213.5
    Got on up this morning and went to exercise. Changing up my routine to include the elliptical. I want to start weight training, but I think that will me one of my targets for the New Year! If I can make it through Thanksgiving and Christmas and still come out no more than 205 lbs., I will consider it a super victory! That's my plan anyway! Got to increase the exercise; that's for sure!

    11/11: 212.7

    11/12: 213.8
    Didn't realize I forgot to post my weight yesterday; spent the last hour looking for yesterday's post to copy! Took me a while of going back and forth to realize it just wasn't there! :o I've never done that before. I worked yesterday, and it's been a while since I worked on a Saturday. I will start on my 2 week vacation on the 19th, so I've been trying to make a little extra spending money! B) Will be working more hours next week too, but not on Saturday!

    I did the same thing earlier this week, and I kept going through the posts saying, "I know it's here why did it get deleted?" I finally looked at my post history and realized that I copied and pasted my post in the box that day but, I never clicked the post reply button. :*
