I posted the stats below. I only lost 0.1 pounds within 5 days but did lose 0.5% bodyfat. Does that mean I built muscle?

Total Body Water %: 57.3%
Oct. 25
Weight: 216.1
Bodyfat %: 23.8%

How was your body fat measured? Scales are quite inaccurate0

Obviously no change indicated.
The difference in measurements is too close in time and completely w/in the probable degree of variation and/or error for ANY device or measurement method.
