Hey Folks, I was wondering if anyone uses the Omron fat loss monitor to measure their bodyfat%? I know it's not 100% accurate but I've been dieting for about 7 weeks, losing weight, looking leaner and more vascular, and from week to week my bodyfat% never drops on this scale. It either stays the same or goes up abit. I'm hoping these things are really off:confused:

The handheld model is accurate if you do it under the right circumstances.

First thing in the morning, weigh yourself nude after pissing and crapping if needed. Do not eat or drink anything before hand. Plug in your weight, age, gender, and height, then take your reading.

I have found with myself and my client, male and female, its within 1.5% of a true 7 site skinfold assesment.

No one ever does it under these conditions so its never even close to accurate.
