weighed myself today

weighed myself at seven a.m.
not thrilled with the results
at noon my weight was no better
I drank eight glasses of water today
spent volume of time in the bathroom
figured I probably lost a pound there
at seven p.m. I attempted another go on the scales.
How can anyone gain three pounds in one day?
I went back to the kitchen and ate cake.
