So, having just started (around 3 weeks ago) with my new routine and diet (200g carbs, 150g protein and 60g fat) i went out and brought myself some scales, the ones below.

Anyway been using these scales for a couple of weeks now and initially they have been showing I've dropped weight albeit slowly but there is the occasional over read/under read. Well i stepped on these Thursday morning and could see I've dropped another 2 pounds. Step on them this morning and i get 3 completely different readings, one showing up 2 pounds, another 4 and another 6, and i zero'd the scales each time. Having looked it up this seems to be fairly common for relatively cheap home scales. I did some research before buying these and thought they were meant to be more accurate. Also add to the fact I've been under my calorie goals and macros (long work days) all day thurs/fri and still going to the gym late it doesn't add up.
I have been looking around and want something that also checks body fat reasonably accurately, which i have come to understand can be pretty hard to come by. So I've found these and wondered if anyone on here has used them or knows of any better alternatives? Keen to do some research as they're kinda pricy to invest in if they turn out to be in accurate.
