This may be a silly question but when I got breasts implants I gained 7 lbs. Is this gonna have any affect on my bf %?

You may have gained 7 lbs after implants, but I'm thinking you couldn't have gained it FROM the implants. Therefore, the 7 lbs could have an effect on your bf. I don't believe the implants would. I had implants a couple of years ago and had no change in weight/bf.

what type of implants?? you might want to check with your dr to see if they wieght anything(I"m not sure what goes in them but they may add a few lbs) - how long ago was the surgery? your body may be holding water from that - I would get bf% check at least after a month so your body has time to adjust to them

the answer I think is more straight forward.....when you had implants you took some down time? well if you did then you were probably less active if even for a week.....you could have easily gained a few pounds that way....and your implants are a pound maybe?.....there is only a slight increase if any at all in bf...your bf levels fluctuate more slowly...small possibility you're retaining a bit more water weight also...could be a combination of these things...
