A question for those with Tanita scales -
I always weigh myself at roughly the same time (post emptying of gut and subsequent refilling of gut in the mornings). I know it's inevitable to some extent, but i've noticed in the last few weeks that i'm constantly fluctuating by +/- 1.5kg ish.
However, the increase or decrease in weight is typically exactly mirrored by the same increase or decrease in muscle mass.
My water % is normally in a similar 5% ish range whenever i measure.
Any ideas what's going on with the constant up and down? I would have expected that if my water % was massively changing each time my mass and muscle mass would too, but it seems largely consistent.
