    Here's how you do this:

    1. Eat right and exercise.

    2. Pick an exercise that you enjoy.

    3. Eat a lunch and a dinner.

    4. Between these meals do not allow your hands anywhere near your mouth.

    Weight problems solved!

  6. Baron, these operate on something called bio-electrical impedance and from what I've read not very accurate. From my limited understanding more perspiration or moisture on your feet messes up the reading.

    Checked a few sites, about.com says:
    "This method can be accurate (4% margin of error) but the results are affected by hydration, food intake and skin temperature. If you're dehydrated, you're body fat percentage will read higher than it is.

    This is an easy way to test your body fat. Be sure you test at the same time of day, preferably first thing in the morning before breakfast, but after a glass of water."
