Weekly weigh in - Fridays

[Bluetit1802]

Bluetit you are SO like me with your weighing regime! I go to the bathroom, wash hands, do bg test and then put scales in exactly the same spot in my kitchen, and stand on naked! It made me smile to see how similar we are

Twins.

25/5 - Morning.

Back to my 12 stone 12 lbs that I have maintained since May 2017, except for the 'blip' last week of 2 lb increased (maybe I mis-read the scales?)

@ickihun - Possibly? It could of been water retention = was drinking loads more water and not peeing as much out.

Well Done Everybody .

Thats a relief it has gone.
Well done in maintaining your weight. Some cannot do it after higher weight being much heavier in their past.
It is a huge achievement. Does liver see its benefits too?

 

[ickihun]

I'm feeling hopeful.
Metformin for a week so far and I hugely feel lighter.
My bg average is down by 4mmol/ls so instead of 11 as average. 7 is my averages again.
I only lose once my bgs are good. (or ridiculously high, 30s).
I may have a preview weigh in now..... (drum roll) ... 136.20kg this morning.

So lost about 0.5lb but not adding nor same so I'm very happy.
Small acorns work for me.

See you Friday with more of a loss, hopefully.
On less insulin so I should lose...... right? Not necessarily, for me.
Only good bgs help me lose weight. Whatever the amount of insulin (for me).

I thought today was Thursday not Wednesday (uk). Hopefully more time to get weight down by Friday.
... Off back to bed, it's 4 am here.

Very optimistic

Well 6 consecutive days of OMAD has yielded the desired results. Exactly 1kg off this week, taking me to my lowest weight of 57.9 kg. 0.4kg of real loss as my previous lowest a few weeks ago was 58.3kg. My Lose It app flashed up a gif telling me that my 95lb loss is equivalent to a small horse!!

 

[briped]

Good morning all losers, may I join you? My weight and my BG have joined forces to confuse me. In two days I've gained 1.2kg and the blue veins on my feet tell me they're not retaining water. Could be my floor being less than level. Oh well, never mind. In 4 days I'll probably have lost 4 kgs. My BG is also quite erratic, so I suspect the two are in cahoots. Conspiration theory? I think not.

Morning @briped and welcome!

Morning @briped and welcome!

Thanks What's the name of the weight loss app you use? Android or IOS? Sounds like good fun. Wonder what it would've shown me this morning, though.

It's called Lose It. IOS. Very American, so I don't use any of the food/nutrition values that have been loaded by others, enter all of my own foods and recipes. A bit of work up front, but makes it more accurate. There is a free version and a premium (paid) version. I used the free version for a few months and then upgraded as I got more into data crunching. The free version works very well.

Good morning all. 13 stone 2 ( 83.3kg ). A loss of 3 lbs. I am generally not as hungry in the warm weather and less likely to snack. Have a great weekend.

Well Done Everybody .

 

[Jenniewren1958]

Still doing plenty of walks & have more energy

 

[ianpspurs]

Morning all I haven't been in this thread for a while. Weight today 11 Stones 6.8 Lbs for a BMI of 21.8 which must be my lowest since at least age 16. Also seem to have reduced waist to height ratio to below the magic .5 so this part of the story is fine. BG seems to have had a fortnight kicking over the traces so the shine has been somewhat taken off this progress. Ideally I don't think I want to lower my weight any more but body doesn't seem to take my wishes or actions into consideration lately​

9.10 so downward albeit slowly.
