Weight goes up. Weight goes down. Weight goes up.

Today I weighed in six pounds heavier than last time. I've exercised consistently, eaten within the guidelines I've set, and yet I'm six pounds heavier. It doesn't bother me like it once did, but it does color my attitude a bit.

However, on the bright side, I was able to remove a ring stuck on my finger. Yes, a ring that grew tight over time until I couldn't get it off finally slipped over my knuckle today. This tiny sign provides evidence that reminds me that the scale's pronouncement is not always the last word.

Keep on keeping on.
