It always interests me how what I eat, do or sweat affects the readings on my tanita bodyfat scale. Saturdays is always a lower water day for me as I start eating earlier than weekdays and dont have my normal 8 hours after waking to take in fluids. So it was no surprise to me this am when my scale read high.
then I decided to test things with a hot bath, which always seems to LOWER my BF % on the scale, even though the scale is measuring water levels.
pre bath
bw 162.4
bf 14.5 %
hydration level 56%
post bath
bw 161.2
bf 10.4%
hydration level 59% !!!!
that is very strange. I sweated and lost water and measured a higher level of hydration. very wierd. I will take it again after hydrating more before I start eating later.
