Vertical lines

I see a couple vertical lines in the graph. Did Chris claim to be two different weights on the same day? In that case, it would represent a range and you should do a trend line. AReasonableMan (talk) 11:53, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

• The graph is over ten years so what looks like a vertical line is actuality Chris clamming his weight has changed over a period of days such in the case of early 2019 where he initially reported his weight as 213 and then three days later as 209.3. I think there was a few of the points where he gave a range and I just imputed a number in between for those. --Finnegan (talk) 12:13, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

• That's actually realistic if one loses water weight or uses a different scale. I didn't see that that the graph starts at 170 pounds. Sorry for being a slow-in-the-mind. AReasonableMan (talk) 13:27, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

• One's weight can vary by about five kilos within a short time, while still keeping to the same average. I think that the graph would be improved, if it is not too autistic, by showing the weight range directly, so a band instead of a line, especially if Chris has mentioned this. A scale in kilogrammes on the right side would also be appreciated for us international users who do not know freedom units. ChanOfTartary (talk) 13:58, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
