Hi @gibbyhome,

Nice work on the weight loss!

Bodyfat readings can be confusing for sure. I find the readings can vary a bit.

The percentage is very dependent on your hydration levels, so it's important to weigh yourself at the same time of day.  First thing in the morning, or after a shower are good times.

Bodyfat tends to lose gradually. It can be hard to see the trend. Using a site like Trendweight works well for the tracking, because it provides averages that smooths out the ups and downs. It's a good tool for looking at longer term trends.  Hope this helps.
