Wednesday Weekly Weigh-in

NerdAlert · April 7, 2026, 1:48pm

Not all of it is actual weight gain. I doubt you consumed an excess 60,000 calories on your vacation!

A good chunk was likely water retention from traveling and eating higher sodium foods than you normally would. Traveling can also cause some constipation issues. I find I can gain 5-10 pounds when I fly.

Some of it is literal food bulk weight. That takes a few days for me to see even out. And then I’m left with the couple pounds of actual weight gain, and that’s what comes off at the normal pace.

Half sounds about right. I think it would be pretty easy to eat an extra 2k calories a day at an all inclusive, especially if you are drinking calories on top of the meals. Weight beyond that is just bulk in your GI and water retention, but you may have already seen most of what will adjust there.

Consistent - weighed 146 the day prior.

I’m interviewing, so stopped using prescription cannabis just in case. To help it out of my system, I’ve been walking 8-12 miles/day on my treadmill while working, so there’s ~1100 calories/day burnt. I’m fine at 145 but don’t think it would be healthy to go under 140. I’ve still been eating an average of maybe 2,200 calories/day… will probably have a second breakfast today.

Already on the treadmill today.

You might need two decimal points for kilos otherwise it looks like your weight doesn’t budge.

I’m also enjoying your dd/mm/yyyy isms. I might have to change to yyyymmdd as that was my favorite back in my coding days.

It’s been a healthy week. Still abstaining from medical cannabis, which truly helps my autoimmune condition a bit, but I’m not risking a job on it. I’ve been doing squats in the garage weight cage now that it’s warm enough. With the impetus of burning out the THC, last workweek and the Friday prior, I used my underdesk treadmill basically 8+ hours/day every day. Probably averaging around 1.8 mph, burning 1000+ calories per day, on an incline.

My butt is noticeably bootier already.

Work from home is helpful. I’m in workout clothes, but just keep a zip-up hoodie next to me and slap it on if the boss calls.

I’m surely not replacing every calorie I burn, but eating a lot more to compensate. Had two breakfasts today at 5 and 7 AM. Yesterday I had a mid-morning smoothie with ~200 calories of peanut butter alone.

I saw a 3 on the scale yesterday and thought of y’all. It might be time to start thinking about titrating off Zep, but I’m 5 foot 1.5 inches and healthy BMI numbers suggest I should be rail thin. Like 100 pounds at the bottom of the range thin. (I disagree).

I read that several times as a 2-month span, not 14 months

Regardless, very impressive! Can’t give any input on going off a GLP-1.
