My next round-number milestone is still a few weeks out

I’m 3.4 kg from a milestone I’ve been treating like a finish line. Daily weigh-ins used to make me jumpy, so I switched to watching the seven-day average and the monthly direction. Last Tuesday I was up 0.9 kg after a salty dinner; this morning I’m down 0.6.

That’s just noise doing noise things. The trend line is still angling down, slowly, which is enough for me today. I haven’t crossed that line yet, and I’m weirdly okay with that.

The data doesn’t need to flatter me every morning to be useful. For those who weigh daily, what helped you stop letting one high number narrate the whole week?
