Why body fat measurement may be better than a scale

Earlier this week, I wrote about a new study that pointed to the limits of the bathroom scale in terms of evaluating weight gain -- or weight loss. The study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, found that overeating a high-protein diet led to more weight gain than overeating a low-protein diet but that this extra weight gain came from added muscle, not body fat.
