Withings scale accuracy for TRENDS — MyFitnessPal.com


Question for people who may have done more research than I – I know that the bathroom scales that profess to tell you your muscle/fat/water breakdown are little more than a gimmick when it comes to a snapshot of your body composition, but are they any more accurate when it comes to tracking a trend long term?

Below is my Withings body comp graph for the last 6 months. Now it says I’ve lost a bit of muscle, and a lot of fat. But I know I’ve lost fast, and while I do exercise, I’m not lifting weights or doing a whole lot of resistence exercise, so I don’t know if it is of any use to me in indicating whether I’ve lost more muscle mass than it seems to show.

I’m not overly fussed, not planning on getting a DEXA scan or anything, but I’m curious and I’d be interested in thoughts :)
