A Frustrating Weekly Weigh In

I didn't post my weigh in last week because there was no change ... I couldn't see the point of just copying and pasting the previous weeks figures.

This week however, there is a change ... but not one I want.

I've gained again, and am almost back to my pre-break weight.

I know why ... it's a combination of my body still rebelling from that 4 day high mobility time, so that my activity since then, and in the last week in particular, has been severely curtailed, and a week of emotional eating for varying reasons.  But it's still frustrating.

It's frustrating too to note that, other than the 2lb glitch as I think we'll have to call it, and the adjustment for the more accurate new scales, my weight hasn't budged for 2 months now.

It's apparent that I've reached the limitations of diet, but also that exercise is not an option other than in very short and widely spaced out bursts, the effects of which are lost long before the next burst is possible.

I promised myself I would keep this weight loss blog separate from my health blog, but it's becoming obvious they go hand in hand.

So, I'll keep to the diet, the weight tracking and all that, if only to ensure I don't gain even more back, but I'm not sure where to go from here.


(The boring bit)
Percentage of starting weight lost this week - -0.4%
Total of starting weight now lost - 6.8% (or 17.2lbs)
And of target weight loss - 22.4%

New weight is 107.2kg ... which is 16st 12 2/3, or 236.33lbs
