E-bod scale says I'm "Overfat" at 138 pounds, 5,4 tall
I bought a scale today, which measures body fat, muscle mass, etc. *I know these are never accurate, BUT*: I am a girl, 19 yrs. When I set that I'm a man, it says 18%, "Healthy", gives me 1596 kcals. And when I set that I'm a woman, it says 32% "Overfat", 1272 kcals. WHAT? I'd die on those kcals, I easily maintain on 2200…

Should I give up and gain it all back? (hormones, period missed)
I went down from 135 lbs to 126 (I'm 5ft 4, healthy BMI) in 4 months (very slowly). I ate healthy food, vegetables, fruit, lean meats, seeds, nuts, whole grain bread/pasta, brown rice, dark chocolate in moderation, avocado, peanut butter, generally a diet that's not boring or hard for me. Every day ate at least 1500 kcal,…

Horse riding, cycling with fitbit on?
How will these activities affect my steps and calorie stats? How can you "disable" the tracker but keep it on your wrist for these activities. I plan on turning it off for the time I ride and then log it later. Is it possible to switch off?
