#wins 2025-04-22

my knees stopped hurting around 18 down and i had assumed that was permanent damage, thats one data point

i log kilos because i think in kilos and put pounds in brackets so nobody has to convert anything

thats not showing off

slow is fine

the win i did not expect was sleeping through the night. i had forgotten that was available

i was the one who nearly quit at week three and now i am the one saying hold, which i find funny

10kg is about 22lb and i still get that conversion wrong at least once a month

thats the win

i overclaimed early on in here, got gently corrected, and i deserved it

coming back to this hit 21 down this morning and im sat here not really feeling anything, is that normal

sorry to jump in congratulations, genuinely. and thank you for putting the caveats in, most people do not bother
cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night

my knees stopped hurting and i genuinely did not expect that, has anyone had the same

bloods, blood pressure and the stairs all moved before the scale did anything interesting

update on the earlier thing down 56 and the scale hasnt moved in a fortnight, do i still get to call it a win

i keep a pair of jeans from 2015 in the wardrobe as a measuring device and it is the only measurement i trust
bloods, blood pressure and the stairs all moved before the scale did anything interesting

youre allowed to be pleased

does the room want the numbers or just the story

nearly quit at week three, the nausea was awful, somebody here told me to hold rather than push. month 7 now, i think

unrelated but resting heart rate went from 82 to 64 over a year. the weight, the walking, or both, i genuinely do not know

cpap pressure got turned down last week, has that happened for anyone

size 22 to size 14 over about eighteen months. sizes are not consistent between shops so i only use the one shop

i was down 23 at month six and then nothing at all for eleven weeks. it moved again. the eleven weeks were not a failure, we shall see

brilliant a1c

first time under a number i havent seen since 2016, what did people do at that point

blood pressure went from 148 over 94 to 124 over 78 across about a year and my gp took me off one of the two tablets

down 86 and my resting heart rate dropped 3 bpm, related or not

cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night, i could be wrong

what non scale thing surprised you most

a1c came back 5.6 from 6.9, can i be pleased about that or is it too early to say anything
