Welp, I have been using my old sturdy and what I thought to be reliable analog scale to track my weight for the past few years but last week got a hankering to get a smart scale to track my body fat and bmi so I ordered this scale. It arrived yesterday and I just used it for the first time. If this scale is accurate, my analog scale was weighing me in significantly less. So I am up 6lbs since yesterday. At least I know where I'm really at now, in bright blue digital numbers...
Yes, diet soda is fine. I drink multiple cans a day and look at my flair for my stats. I consume an Atkins coffee shake now and again but not regularly. For the scale, this is what I use. It's great because it shows body fat and muscle compositions (as well as BMI, water and bone).
Oof idk probably more than 20%. You can buy a scale that gives you an estimate. https://www.amazon.com/Digital-GreaterGoods-Accurate-Composition-Measurements/dp/B019928F74
I have this one from Amazon. If I get on and off repeatedly the weight is the same sometimes the body composition numbers will change .5+-
I didnt go through a huge amount of them but this is the one I use. They make one with bluetooth which I wish I had because the most annoying part of my routine is trying to remember the numbers and get them recorded to my spread sheet. But for the most part this has been consistent for me. This along with a measuring tape should be all you need to track progress.

How much short-term weight fluctuation is normal?
I just got a new scale and have been weighing myself a couple of times, and it seems to believe I have lost 12 pounds in 2 days (in which I've changed no significant eating/exercise habits, mind you). I don't see any way this could be true, but I've also been ruling out technical causes, and the data doesn't seem random enough to just be measurement error.
I have been weighing in at different times of day, which can account for some of it (in fact, in part I wanted to quantify the daily fluctuations before actually making changes), but 12 pounds is way out of the question, right?
From what I've read daily weight fluctuation is more on the order of 3 pounds or so. Anyone have any explanations?
I've got a Balance High Accuracy Digital Body Fat Scale, sold by Greater Goods. It's not super expensive, so it could just be a bad scale.
I thought mine was accurate for a while, too, because it's not always easy to compare yourself against pictures of others. There are so many different ways our bodies can be composed. I had way more visible muscle than the 20 - 25% pics I saw, but I figured maybe I just carried my fat in different places. (I do carry most of my fat on my legs, according to DEXA.) But I was way off.
It's not that big a deal unless you're planning goals around your weight and body fat percentage. I thought I needed to aim around 165 lbs, based on having 22% BF. Turns out anything below 175 - 180 would be crazy.
I do! This is the one I use.

A body fat scale like this makes it easy to get an approximation.
I have this one. And I always weigh myself in the morning after going to the bathroom before eating or drinking anything, with totally dry feet. So I guess that gets rid of some variables as well.
