Keychain Login Problem

I've reset my keychain login three times now and for some reason it reverts back to the original password every time. Is there something I'm doing wrong or is it a glitch?

iMac 27″, macOS 10.12

Is this your Login Password, or Keychain Access Password?

If your Mac keeps asking for the login keychain password

The password of your macOS user account might not match the password of your login keychain. Either create a new login keychain or update it with your new password.
