The long-term stability of weight is often considered a marker of energy balance. According to Hall et al., why does weight change in the short term not necessarily represent energy imbalance?       Changes in body weight include changes in body water, which may be variable     Rapid turnover of fat stores can lead to short term changes in body weight       Variations in energy stored per unit of body weight exist       All of the above
