euheide's Journal, 26 January 2014

It's great that the weight hasn't gone up but I've been resting more hours than usual (more time without eating).

Everything is pointing out to the RL being a lack of nutrients since, another day that I forgot taking the multivitamins ended up with the RL giving me trouble sleeping at night. I ended up waking up drinking 2 cups of milk to help me sleep better lol. The amazing thing is that, just one day without taking the multivitamins will trigger the RL.

Just out of curiosity, I used the body composition scanning feature on my scale (hadn't done that in a long time) and, apparently, I went from like 7% body fat (claimed by the device at the time) to a 10 to 11% body fat right now. At the time I supposedly had 7% body fat, I was weight training. I really have to restart it but I haven't been sleeping well lately. I will probably start as soon as I feel well rested. :)

Wow, I completely failed the ideal FCP ratio today :P I have to eat more carbs and protein! Where did all that fat come from? hmmm

I wonder how a scale can determine that. Mine is just a regular weight scale.

It's a bioimpedance body composition scanner Skwhite but, in reality, it's far from accurate. If you drink 2 cups of water, it will increase your body fat by that ammount lol ;) That's why I stopped using it for a long time. It does give you a frame of reference to whether you are improving or getting worse though :). It uses hand electrodes (connected to a cable) which you grab as you would with sticks and, when you place yourself over the scale, you step on foot electrodes also. It then sends that electrical signal (a very weak current through you and it's kind of like a sonar since it determines your body fat through the "echo" because of differences of conductivity between fat and non fat tissue ;)

It just has an issue with water (at least) lol

It's an old Tanita model. I think new ones are much more accurate.
