Worth noting that I did the measurements at the same time each morning. When I tried measuring my weight at various times of the day, I easily got several percentage points of difference.

Other things that influenced the percentage included:

* eating some very salty stuff the previous day (drives down the percentage)

* getting drunk the previous day (same, weirdly enough)

* eating something late the previous day (same)

You can get decent progress tracking so long as you keep your diet relatively steady and weigh yourself at the same time each day. Even so, there will be odd variations of up to 1.5% in a day, but as you can see from the graphs they usually melt back into an average trend.
