What are your thoughts ? I use scales but not more than once a week .

fat callipers don’t take into account lose skin after losing weight. I weigh every day and make a weekly average on a Sunday . Also use Renpho scales with bio impedance which roughly measures fat %. Though with a bmi of 23 it’s still telling me I have enough fat to be obese, I think it’s not differentiation between loose skin and fat
