Op those scales are not accurate, don't let it upset you.3

I figure they're not accurate at all, I never pay attention to mine. I looked this morning and apparently my BF% is 17%, which is very unlikely because I'm 145lbs at 5'3. Oh how I wish it were true!
I'd say pay no attention to what the scale says here and use other measurements and how your clothes fit.3 -
Oh goodness me...
Let me clarify...I’m not suggesting to eat more than such and such calories a body needs to maintain, because yes, that will cause weight gain.
And believe me or NOT, I did gain weight eating TOO LOW calories. Maybe had I just did a deficit of 10 or 15%, which is what I believe y’all are implying, then it would have been a different outcome. But it wasn’t, it was TOO LOW. So yes, a deficit will cause a weight loss, but also a deficit that is way too high, will cause weight gain.
Clear?
Clear, but wrong. The Laws of Thermodynamics disagree with you. And there are PLENTY of people that know your body better than you; that would include medical doctors and those with a degree in biology, such as myself.7
