yes, youre probably right. I had one for weight and bodyfat%, was always reading different bodyfat percentages, as if i was getting fatter or leaner within a couple of hours.

I have one of the same scales where you enter in if you're female or male, how tall you are, etc. and then step on the scale. It gave me an inaccurate reading. I got a professional(real body fat test with water) body fat test and it was 8.5% lighter than what the scale was telling me. So, they're REALLY inaccurate. If I were you, I'd check around and see if you can't get a body fat test from a local university, mine did it for $10.
