tbh, I bought a set of those cheap bmi scales from Big W... Before you say they're crap; I know but I thought at least I could use whatever figure I got for bf as a gauge if you like.
... Lets just say, if its anywhere near accurate, I'm a pretty fat kunce!
Never paid much attention to dieting per se other than monitoring intake and macros compared with my TDEE etc..
Would be interesting to see how the dexa compares to the 'crap' scales??
We too have those crap scales, and I did monitor using them for a while, they seemed to get consistent readings, but not sure if they were right or any where near ball park.

What percentage did it spit out teste? We've got those body analyser scales at the work gym (same ones you usually pay $30-60 for a scan in Perth) and it told me I was 28%...can usually see a few abs poking thru so when I was really "bulking" it would have said something above 40% for sure!

Got some cheap arse scales that told me I was 28%!! ffs.. smh.
The Dexa said I was around 5% less than that, but still too frikkin' fat.
Luckily I'm an ectomorph.. if I think back far enough lol so dropping weight is a piece of cake for me. In the last week I've been carb cycling and keeping below maintenance cals but keeping protein high and already noticing the difference.
