Does anybody want to share their experience with Tanita body fat scale I am curious ....,I used this at the gym one month ago in fact just over one month ago and it shows my body fat at the exact same measurement today which seems unlikely because I have been working out regularly and cutting calories for that entire time. It's not going to stop me ....but it is a little bit discouraging when I see absolutely no change in my body fat supposedly ......my body feels different and looks different....but I'm curious about the measurement has anybody had a similar experience or would you like to share your experience thanks

^ This. I have a scale that "measures" bodyfat % and the reading sometimes fluctuates 2% up/down from one day to the next - which obviously isn't accurate. If you want to understand why:
