Haha, well yeah. Though you should hardly need stats if you’re recording over a period of months (“golly, I wonder if my 40 lb weight change these past 6 months is just me being dehydrated right now? Maybe I should wait till after I drink my morning 4 gallons just to be sure”). I meant it more on time scales of “between 1 week and 2 weeks”, or for where weight loss was very minor due to a tiny caloric deficit.
With more precise measurement (eg, via bodpod) of body composition you would better be able to track smaller changes, too.
