    Today was a mess of a day. The walk didn't happen because of a whole bunch of things.

    I've hit "discouraged". Getting sick has been, historically, the thing that derailed me. I'm still struggling with some upper airway symptoms. Check-ins fell apart. I'm not drinking anywhere near enough water. My sleep has been broken, and I'm just exhausted all the time.

    I am going to try to get out for a walk today.

    Rested all day. Still feel like rubbish. Drank plenty of fluid, but only 1L of actual water.

    I'm not going to force myself into going walking if I'm still unwell tomorrow. Doesn't seem wise.

    400g down this week. Under the circumstances (on-call, mild cold) I shouldn't be too down on myself about it, but I'm feeling pretty flat right now.

    So the challenge here is that I've accepted that I'm marginally unwell. I have tried to do almost nothing today, in an attempt to rest, and intend to do the same tomorrow, and then back into the saddle on Monday.

    I'm concerned that come Monday, I won't be able to motivate myself to get out there again, because that's what's happened so many times before.

    So I'm telling you my plans and fears now, in an attempt to circumvent that lack of motivation.

    Also, I drank some water today, but paid no attention to how much. Not enough.

    It finally happened. I got sick. Worse still, I dove headfirst into a binge because I felt so crap. I'm feeling pretty disappointed in myself right now.

    I hoped this wouldn't happen, but it did. Nightmare Tuesday (even relative to Tuesdays).

    Between the storm, and blackouts, and being on call, by the time I *could* get a walk in, I hadn't eaten for so long that I was shaking, and by the time I did get some dinner, I hard to start my evening shift, which finished at 11pm, leaving it too late to walk (unless I wanted to be up until 2am due to the energy boost).

    I know, get back on the horse, yada yada yada, but I'm still disappointed that I broke this streak.

  29. CW: Diet & Weight loss - Week 6 Check-in

    February 11, 2024 - Day 42 - Weigh-in
    Total Weigh-ins: 7

    Start weight: 164.3kg (362.2lb)
    Last weight: 161.8kg (356.7lb)
    Current weight: 160.2kg (353.2lb)

    Weekly change: 1.6kg (3.6lb) loss

    Total change: 4.1kg (9lb) loss

    Goal change: 0.5kg (1.1lb) p/w loss

    Actual change (avg): 0.68kg (1.5lb) p/w

    Comments:
    Last week, I asserted that the scales can lie, which I reiterate this week. Because last week looked like a gain, this week's weign-in looks like a much larger loss than it really is.

    I should start graphing this.

    A little bit of mood whiplash this morning, though.

    When I stood on the scales this morning, I was a *little* disappointed. So tantalisingly close to breaking the 160kg mark "officially".

    Almost nothing lost since last week...[record scratch]

    It wasn't until I sat down to write this that I looked at the numbers, and the trend, and realised that my memory was completely out of whack, and that not only is my weight down since last week, my weight is also down overall.

    In writing this, I discovered something else, something a little... nasty.

    One of the ways I've described my experience of gender dysphoria is of being disconnected from my body, of being "me-but-not-Me".

    Turns out that one of the places I do feel a sense of identity is in my weight.

    I edited a paragraph above to change the phrasing; from "I'm down since last week" to "my weight is down since last week".

    I am not my weight. I am not my excess fat.

    I will no longer define myself by my weight.

    I should start graphing this.

    A little bit of mood whiplash this morning, though.

    When I stood on the scales this morning, I was a *little* disappointed. So tantalisingly close to breaking the 160kg mark "officially".

    Almost nothing lost since last week...[record scratch]

    It wasn't until I sat down to write this that I looked at the numbers, and the trend, and realised that my memory was completely out of whack, and that not only is my weight down since last week, my weight is also down overall.

    In writing this, I discovered something else, something a little... nasty.

    One of the ways I've described my experience of gender dysphoria is of being disconnected from my body, of being "me-but-not-Me".

    Turns out that one of the places I do feel a sense of identity is in my weight.

    I edited a paragraph above to change the phrasing; from "I'm down since last week" to "my weight is down since last week".

    I am not my weight. I am not my excess fat.

    I will no longer define myself by my weight.

    Was far too tired to write this up last night. I ended up doing two walks. The first one, I finally cracked the walk in under 10m (9m58s). Figured I could let the 2s slide.

    In the evening, my wife asked if I wanted to go for a walk. Eh, why not?

    Yesterday was a hot one, peaking at 37C. I decided to get my walk in earlier in the day, figuring (correctly) that the heat would wipe me out, so I walked at midday, in the relatively cool 30C temperature.

    I came SO close to cracking the 10m mark for the walk (it IS a goal).

    Still struggling with the water.

    When I switched to a 1L water bottle, suddenly it was easy to drink water. The 2L bottle was too much.

    I kept the 2L sports-bottle in the fridge to refill the 1L bottle. Turns out, that's the pinch-point. The 2L bottle is hard to remove the lid, and it's messy to refill the 1L, and my brain just goes "nope, too hard."

    Off to Kmart for a second 1L bottle.

    February 4, 2024 - Day 35 - Weigh-in
    Total Weigh-ins: 6

    Start weight: 164.3kg (362.2lb)
    Last weight: 161kg (354.9lb)
    Current weight: 161.8kg (356.7lb)

    Weekly change: 0.8kg (1.8lb) gain

    Total change: 2.5kg (5.5lb) loss

    Goal change: 0.5kg (1.1lb) p/w loss

    Actual change (avg): 0.5kg (1.1lb) p/w

    Comments:
    A gain. I expected it at some point, did not expect it to be that much. Again, all is not as it seems, thanks to my daily weigh-ins.

    Thursday: 160kg
    Friday: 159.3kg (yay, broke 160!)
    Saturday: 160.6kg (1.3kg in a day?)
    Sunday: 161.8kg (1.2kg in a day??)

    Clearly I have not gained 2.5kg of fat in the space of two days, so something else is going on here. I suspect some water retention due to the heat, plus the late dinner on Saturday night didn't help.

    I do remember a time that this would have devastated me, but now it's just part of the process. The trend is still down, and right on target.

    I started writing today's post with "Today is going to be my first 'no' day."

    I didn't finish that sentence. I was looking at it, half-finished, and thought "It's only five minutes. Yes, I'm utterly exhausted, and struggling to stay awake. But it's *only* five minutes."

    In the end, today is still a 'no' day, though.

    "No, I'm not going to repeat the past 24 hours again."

    Once again, I threw myself in harm's way to save someone else from having to deal with the issue, that STILL required me to work today anyway.

    So I learned something, but I also pushed myself out the door when I didn't feel like it, and a big part of that was simply the accountability presented by these check-ins.
