Not sure if I have gained or if it is the new scale. My daughter knocked the iron off my closet shelf and it crashed into the scale. Took a few weeks for the new one to arrive. So, did I gain some weight, or is it a difference with the new scale. Beats me? Whatever it is, I seem to be in a long term stall. Not too much time to focus on doing anything much different though. Super busy with school. In my studio painting nearly every day over break. Doing all painting classes next semester...and several grad level, so I will be a bit over my head. But, in the long run, it will be a big help to me and my work. Attaching a photo of my latest painting. This is in oil, and 40" x 60". Biggest painting for me so far! Not likely to do many more this size for now....doesn't even fit in my car. :)
