Karla, LBM is bones, water, muscle, everything except for fat.
Muscle gain.. you may be right about the 5-7lbs real muscles, but actual fat gain.. no.
As for the Omron (or Tanita), I've said in another thread, it's the ONLY instrument I have that can do daily tracking w/o a problem. Omron overly relies on UB-fat, the Tanita LB-fat. At least trends are pretty reliable, but even then only trends that span at least 1 hormonal cycle as conductivity changes within a cycle..
