Hi!

Don't bother yourself too much with the scale. It is almost irrelevant.
Water retention by itself will give you notable fluctuations. Meal timing
too. Body fat percentage and just the plain old mirror are your best guides.

Example : Two six feet men at 200 pounds. One has a body fat percentage
under 10% and is "ripped". The other is over 20% and looks obese. Same
weight, different body composition.

Just my 2 cents.
