Fat mass instead of fat percentage

I would prefer a table with Total Weight, LBM and fat mass.

Instead of a table with Total Weight and fat percentage.

 

When losing weight I'm interested in losing fat mass not necessarily decreasing fat percentage.

 

Of course, there's a trend with Total weight and LBM. The difference between the two giving the fat mass. This way of presentation, however, is unnecessarily difficult to follow the trend of ones fat mass.

 

After all, Total Weight and LBM vary. And do so with different numbers. This difference effects fat mass. E.g. a decrease of Total Weight and LBM may result in an increase of fat%, even though fat mass has also decreased.

 

Could this feature be introduced?

Preferably as an option in which one can choose which parameters to use in trends and tables.

I agree that is is too cumbersome to hover over the graph in the Lean vs Fat to view the fat mass.  You have the information.  Can you please add a graph that just graphs fat mass?

Thanks for the link @GershonSurge. That's a nice one!

Would of course be easier if the option were available within Fitbit without having to register on yet another site.

Doesn't appear to be difficult to present the data as suggested 🙂
