Can you show us a picture of this ‘very precise scanner’?
And by the way, what kind of reply are you looking for with your original post? You seem content on arguing with everyone that disagrees/doesn’t believe your gain in fat/loss of muscle observations.
LOL. This is hilarious. Hydration level is huge with bio-impedance devices.
If you want a precise body fat measurement, please post a pic of yourself holding a shoe.

If you had the trouble to read the previous answer, you’d see I agreed with my ignorance on hydration after a pulse feast, thank you for your concern.

Can you read? The doubt was not if the stupid device was precise or not:
Check what I said “Yes, I was aware body water can affect the reading and I said that I usually didn’t have much water retention issues with the occasional cheating day. What I didn’t know and I’m not ashamed of being ignorant about, is excessive hydration due to a pulse feast”.
Yep, I know about the infamous pic. Better than that, I can send you the shoe so you can stick it up to your a$$ to help you measure your derriere fat.
What I think your first post should have been:
Dear T-Nation,
I recently ate a bunch of sugar filled shit and gained a bunch of fat. I am dumbing down the accuracy of my measurements as I think most on this sight are intellectually inferior to myself. I am not looking for an explanation of how I ate less calories then would be represented in the fat I gained as I live in Japan and physics no longer apply here.
This can further be proven by the fact that I measure myself with a multi-point (read extremely accurate) bio-impedance device. In the rest of the world these devises are scientifically proven to be 0.5 to 2.0 percent inaccurate but here in Japan this just isn’t true. This is an expensive machine and when you pay a very high price, physics don’t apply.
I guess I don’t know why I am writing this in the first place since I will just argue with anyone who has a different opinion then mine. Furthermore if they continually disagree I tend to act like a child, or worse a spoiled brat. I will call people names, accuse people with thousands of posts of trolling, and in general act like a pompous jackass.
Thanks for listening,
OP
