Remember, when you weigh your body, you're not weighing fat. You're
weighing fat, bone, water, the particular contents of your stomach,
and the particular contents of your bowels. Plenty of variability
there. If the bounce isn't more than a few pounds, it's negligible.

Dieting is hard. The experience of being overweight is hard. But
it's just another human trial, and the same fortitude that leads
people through other trials is necessary to overcome it.
