Using a scale to measure your weight loss if you have a thyroid problem is inaccurate for 3 main reasons:
1. Your weight may be related to fluid shifts (not fat mass).
2. Your weight on a scale doesn't specifically track fat loss.
3. The scale doesn't tell you if you are gaining or losing muscle mass.
What should you use instead of a scale to track your weight loss? A combination of weekly pictures, body measurements, and a 7-day average of your weight on the scale.
Using all of these together will give you a better picture of how much fat you are losing and how much muscle you are maintaining.
