Highlights from this day
- tga_notice — down 13 and the scale hasnt moved in a fortnight, do i still get to call it a win i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some… 17:07
- ari_arrives — 30 down in 16 months and honestly the stairs were the bit that got me, not the scale 17:18
- gorse_gains — down 32 and my resting heart rate dropped 3 bpm, related or not 17:58
- gorse_gains — careful with the claiming though, mine could easily be the weight rather than the drug and i cannot separate the two, thats one data point 18:21
- gorse_gains — slightly off topic but cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night 19:00
i want to say something in here but im worried about sounding like im showing off
ring fitting is the best one
i overclaimed early on in here, got gently corrected, and i deserved it
coming back after 9 months to say i kept it off, is that useful to anybody
the stairs thing yeah
✅1
hit 20 down this morning and im sat here not really feeling anything, is that normal
well done
cpap pressure got turned down last week, has that happened for anyone

i keep a pair of jeans from 2015 in the wardrobe as a measuring device and it is the only measurement i trust
went from stopping halfway up the stairs to carrying shopping up them without noticing, and that is the whole win

i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some thinking about

went up two flights of stairs without stopping and then had to sit down for a completely different reason
i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some thinking about
careful with the claiming though, mine could easily be the weight rather than the drug and i cannot separate the two, thats one data point
size 22 to size 14 over about eighteen months. sizes are not consistent between shops so i only use the one shop, n of 1 obviously
resting heart rate went from 82 to 64 over a year. the weight, the walking, or both, i genuinely do not know
a1c came back 5.6 from 6.9, can i be pleased about that or is it too early to say anything
blood pressure was 148 over 94 at baseline and 126 over 80 today, is that the weight or coincidence
slightly off topic but cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night

half a stone in 27 weeks sounds slow written down and felt enormous while it was happening, ask me again in a month
