BF% on scales
Is the BF% on scales accurate? What can affect (effect??? poor grammar sorry) it? When I first weighed myself I was at 44% BF. I have lost 6 lbs and now it is saying I am at nearly 49% BF.

SV, NSV, or possible fail
Last night we went to a birthday party. I started out "good", but then the chips were calling my name and I indulged. I ate a lot of chips (and yes, I did log).
