Not sure the machine is accurate
I am not sure how many starts to give. I had my 2nd scan. I lost 30 lbs. The lists me as having as much body fat as I did 30 lbs ago. It dropped my lean muscle mass 25 lbs. While I know you can lose some lean muscle when losing weight, this seems off considering I am also lifting weights. So, I am just not sure the numbers are accurate. Also, it lists my neck at 22 inches. The only way that happens is if they added my ponytail to the neck measurement and that seems stupid.

Hi Camrin, To answer your question, the hair actually matters a lot. Our sensors are 3d cameras, so if you are blocking the neck, you are either going to get a scan error or it's going to think your hair is part of your neck. We recommend a "bun", not a "ponytail". As a reminder, this is part of the scan guidelines we recommend to everyone on the tablet as you start your scan. If this (neck) measurement is off, then any calculations based on that one will also be in-correct - so, I'd agree your calculations are going to be off. I'm happy to answer any other questions about your scan over email to be respectful of your privacy. You can email us at [email protected]. Also - Congratulations on your weight loss journey. This seems like a great accomplishment. Have a great weekend. Fit3D
