Loose Skin
Does loose skin after weight loss affect bodyfat readings?
A couple years ago I lost around 70 pounds, although I had a small waist and could see my abs to a degree (when standing), I could still grab a huge hunk of skin on my belly. I'm up about 35 pounds now and am noticing the same thing happening as I lose weight. I know the elasticity of the skin is dependant on age and genetics, but will calipers detect this loose skin as fat?
(Sorry if this is the wrong forum to ask this in)
