Weight loss and exercise #2

I was 147.8 today. I had a small iced coffee and half of a large coke. I left it at work though. So I’m guessing I had around 285 calories so far today.

For a while I was weighing every other day. I will probably go back to that, but I got in the habit of bopping down to the scale early AM almost every day lately. Weigh ins are just data points; the more data I have the better I can understand where I am. Weighing too infrequently it isn't possible to know whether a weight is a spike up or down from recent common readings. You can weigh once a week and have 2 weights appear to tell you exactly the opposite of what is happening. You can catch a low spike one week and a high spike the next and appear to gain a pound when you have lost one.

I am back on track,this next month I am hoping to lose 14 pounds.

Exercised this morning, but snacked like a pig today. Likely to go over 155 tomorrow. I need to pay attention to the alarm bell when I do.

I only lost 9 pounds since last month,I was 137kg,which is 302 pounds and I am now at 133kg which is,293 pounds.Better than no weight loss at all,but I hope to do better by next month.I am confident that I can stick to 1300 calories a day or less from now on.I hope to lose 14 pounds more by April 2nd when I next see the nurse and get weighed.

9 pounds is some good progress.

Still at 155 but rounding down so I am over slightly.

~75 minutes on arc trainer this morning. I didn't log it and still shooting for a low goal so I won't see much of a bump tomorrow. I deserve one; I went off the deep end last night. Mostly small stuff but several. Things like small pieces of chocolate with peanut butter on them, almonds/raisins with a small pieces of chocolate, a Klondike bar (only one of those). That wouldn't be terrible except there were several of the first two. Also a skin on thigh and fries for dinner.

I was 150.4 today. That’s not too bad. I want to stay below 152. I’ve been eating like crazy lately. At least I think I am. Maybe it’s not that outrageous. I’m going to get back on track though.

Lost three pounds since last time I weighed. Thirty pounds total. I'm very pleased. Two more pounds and I hit a goal weight for FitBit. After that I'll set another goal.

I was 152 today. That’s too high for me. I’m back at 1200 calories today.

156 and change; ridiculously stupid day yesterday. Kind of scary as I got somewhat out of control, but I keep making up for it and my maintenance range is the 150s; it's just my preference to stay at or below 155. My BMI is still below 24 at 156. Planning a long gym session and lighter eating today.

I was 148 today. My sinuses and post nasal drip are acting up today causing me to be nauseated. So I’m not all that hungry today. I plan on sticking to 1200 calories.

Rounded up to 155 this morning. Not very well behaved so far today, but not terrible (yet).

Went way off the deep end yesterday; almost a "slow binge". No single large indulgence but so many small ones I lost count. 157 this morning. Most of the 2 pound jump is obviously water.

Another ugly day. Gym in the AM. Weigh on Wednesday. If I do ~90 minutes tomorrow and eat very lightly, I will still be lucky to break even by Wednesday morning.

I had two bad days in a row. Yesterday I was 148. I’m guessing tomorrow I’ll be back at 152. I discovered that caffeine free regular Mountain Dew does exists. I’ve been drinking a lot of it since it doesn’t have caffeine. and I also found these cookies from Walmart I like that are similar to a discontinued brand I liked. All those calories add up. The good thing is I’m basically maintaining my weight. I hover between 147 and 152. So technically I’m keeping my weight off.

~1500 today and an unlogged 100 minutes of cardio that was probably 600 gives me a net of 900 or so. That's way too little to be healthy if I do it every day, but averaged across three days with the prior two it's fine. Might be back around 155 tomorrow morning, but could still be 156 or even 157. I really pigged out the previous days.

I overate today from 3am until 10pm I ate 3000 calories,not good,must get back down to 1300,it doesn't help that it's my birthday soon.

177 pounds. About 2100 calories. Olanzapine was increased, so my appetite went up. I need to get this under control.

I am having family difficulties and all I want to do is eat,I am an emotional eater,I eat for comfort.My mum is going senile and my narc sister is trying to get power of attorney,I support her her in this I don't think she will steal or hurt my mum,she has been her carer tirelessly for 20 years and even though she was abusive to me in the past there having been any issues with her abusing mum for the last eight years.Anyhow there is no choice,mum is losing her memory and is getting confused about where she is etc
I have wanted ice creme ,chips and chocolate,thing is it's my birthday next week so I am going to allow myself one or two treats.

I was 151 today. I actually did strength training today. I did 20 reps or whatever they are called with my 10 pound weights. I did 10 pull ups, 15 squats, and 5 minutes on my lounge chair. It’s a start but I will be doing more. I plan on doing strength training twice a week and cardio 3 times a week. I really want to focus on actually getting into shape. I feel like I look kind of flabby.

155 and change, rounded up to 156. I feel bad about whining because I am having trouble getting down closer to 150, when my BMI is under 24 even at this weight.

Marlyn, I am sorry things are so stressful right now.

I was 149 today. I’m guessing tomorrow I’ll be at 150. I had about 520 calories for breakfast and then a lot of Chinese food and 3 cookies and a coke. I’m not sure on the calories. But I’m guessing around 2000 calories. Which is around what I should be eating to maintain my current weight.

Not doing too bad,keeping under 2000 calories a day which is ine while its my birthday month,after birthday celebrations are over I will try and drop my calories down to 1300 a day again.

I went nuts at a Pi Day celebration at work yesterday and instead of dropping back toward 155, I was 158 this morning. Then I was stupid today with some leftover pie and donuts. Still in my range but up at the top. Time to really kick it in; no more excuses. Just a few days ago I was over 5 pounds lower. I know a lot of the current weight is water and if I do my standard long workout Saturday without overeating, Sunday will nt be horrible, but I really need to keep going. I am displaying some scary behavior.
