might I suggest, don’t “lose” weight. Your subconscious will just try to find it again.

Makes sense. I’ll just give it back to the world. I was about 150 for 4 years in my early 20s (maybe a bit too skinny), so I’ve got quite a bit to give back.

Reframe: You stole that weight, and you should feel guilty about it.

Summary
I didn’t bother to save my weight history from the ao before it got canned. I started making an effort to drop some weight in late 2018 when I hit 206. Was between 180-185 for most of 2020. I’d look best around 160, but I am not willing yet to make the concessions on diet and exercise to get there. I like to eat well and I know what it takes to get me to 160. I think 170ish is a good goal for now.
Highest adult weight was 235 and lowest was 160. Both were over 20 years ago. I’m 5’11"
I had gotten out of the habit of the weekly weigh in since the ao died, so starting over.

I dropped a deuuuuuce last night, and two mini deuces (and counting) this morning, so by now I’m probably a bit lower.
I like to do the post-deuce weigh-in if it’s an option.

I’m a bit disappointed but there was Thanksgiving and birthday cake.
I tried! This was technically last night after the big one. But the kept coming into this morning, and there might be still more waiting in the wings. Where does it all go when it’s waiting!?!? (I guess that’s why I’m getting double-camera’d in a couple weeks.)

Hopefully they at least start with the endo.
More mountains that way?
(Yes, keeping with the railroad metaphor.)
I had this done once. It was cheaper and easier to do it that way since I was already due for a colonoscopy.

I won’t weigh in for the next 2 Wednesdays as I’ll be out of town. Next weigh in will be the post Xmas one.
Gulp!

In keeping with my posting to the running thread, I figured I should get back to posting here too. Hopefully posting more often will help keep me accountable. A clear upswing in the latter half of the year, particularly following Halloween and Thanksgiving. I am looking to reverse that moving forward.
