Can water weight be measured as percentage fat?

So i was eating healthy for a week and exercising and i lost no weight. I was walking 30 min a day plus 50 situps, 100 jumping jacks and 50 lunges. Then Friday i started taking slimquick and in 2 days i've lost 1 pund and 0.8% body fat according to my scale. Slimquick is supposed to get rid of 6 factors for weight loss one of which is water retention so is the weight just water loss because i thought percent body fat wasn't supposed to measure water loss. Any help please. i was eating healthy and exercising for a week (last saturaday)and lost nothing then i started taking slimquick on friday and now on sunday i lost a pound and 0.8%

1. You cannot judge a weight loss plan after 2 days. You have to give it time and see if it works for you. If slimquick is supposed to help water retention it wont work in 2 days.
2. hi , always give your diet time to get the effect of the healthy eating you are keeping doing it and try to weight yourself every 2 weeks and in the morning before eating your breakfast to give you the accurate scale to your weight best of luck
3. It takes time to lose some weight. Are you drinking enough water? Make sure you are so that you can flush out water weight and it helps to lose body fat. If you were to be dehydrated, your body fat will increase because your body will hold on to everything to keep it from dehydration. If you were to be hydrated, you might have lost some body fat because you have been exercising and eating healthy. So in my perspective, water weight cannot be measured as fat because it's a liquid and fat isn't.
4. no water retention is not counted on body fat ...and if you have a scale that guessed your body fat it's not right... having a fitness trainer do a skin fold is the third most accurate way to get your body fat% anyway... taking pills may change the numbers on your scale but only good food and hard workouts will change your body compisition and/or help you get healthy/in shape...
