Body fat % on Aria

[walkymcwalk]

Is it possible for a steady bf% of 24, it has jumped to over 40, in less than a week. Is this even possible? I recently reset my aria to a new wifi, but other than that I don't think i've changed anything. I know I've been packing it on over the holidays, but is this big of a jump possible, or is my scale possibly glitching?

thanx

How well BIA scales like the Aria estimate BF% can vary between individuals. In 4.5 years of daily use, nearly all the BF% returned by my Aria have been between 13 and 20% (check the TrendWeight link in my signature). During that period, my weight has fluctuated between 60 and 70 kg. Do check that your personal data (age, gender, height) are correct in your profile, and you are using the same body type (regular vs. lean) under the People tab.

mine usually changes within 1% daily- which I struggle to understand how that's possible- but that's a different story. I don't think a jump like that is real- you would feel it and see it if it were. I would do what Dominique suggested as far as rechecking your personal stats to make sure nothing went wonky and keep using it- it may recalibrate itself when you least expect it.
