Week 193

3lb gain!

Over the past 7 days we've spent 3 days in a hotel with bed, breakfast and evening meal; 2 days travelling where food always goes awry; had my birthday party with a fantastic spread of food by Maggie; and eaten most of the leftovers of that fantastic spread of food by Maggie.

I'm now over a stone heavier than my lightest point in July last year.

If I don't turn this round now I am going to have to give up wearing 34" jeans, which are definitely too tight on me, and return to the 36's just to be able to breathe properly.

Fortunately we don't do Thanksgiving in Scotland so I think we have a more or less clear run until Feastmas.

Body fat: 26.5%

Week 192

0.6lb gain.

This post is 4 days late. The above gain was correct on Monday, but we were away for several days. My guess is this coming Monday will show a far greater increase as my birthday is on Saturday.

Week 191

0.8lb gain.

That's about fair I think, considering the extras that have sneaked in this past week.

I have to try and keep this coming week under control as best I can as next week I don't stand a chance. Next week we will be eating out several times AND it's my birthday at the end of it.

Week 190

Same as last week.

Is that good? Is that bad?

It all depends on which way my mood is swinging when I think about it.

One thing I do know is I'm bloody amazed we got through last night without a complete blow-out given various emotional stresses.
