One of the things that changed my training in the gym(after many years of off-and-on) was doing college judo classes for two semesters, because it indicated what things were missing in my training program(mobility, shoulder strength, stamina) and I think the same is relatively true of body composition - there are a lot of ways to benchmark your physique and weight is one of the least reliable, a kind of "you get there when you get there" type of deal. You can't expect physique to deviate hugely from your starting point without pharmecutical assistance(which is, defacto, how all the celebs are getting their transformations, on top of extensive training and nutritional oversight), but there are a lot of easily overlooked details that do compound towards a goal over time: how often and when you eat, as well as type and quantity. How well you sleep. Stress levels. Sometimes it really can come down to just adding another meal or finding something to graze on.
