Highlights from this day
- adelaide_assay — the boring version is the useful one. slow, uneventful, still going 22:16
- adelaide_assay — my knees stopped hurting and i genuinely did not expect that, has anyone had the same 22:29
- LC_MS_Lena — half a stone in 9 weeks sounds slow written down and felt enormous while it was happening 22:55
- adelaide_assay — the ring fitting again was worth more to me than any number on the scale ever was 23:27
Purity check: no report on file for lot A-2418. Nothing logged either way.
how do you say youre pleased in here without it sounding like an advert
cpap pressure got turned down last week, has that happened for anyone
genuine question does anyone else keep one pair of old jeans purely as a measuring device
repeat sleep study came back better, has anyone else moved out of the range they were in
follow up i keep a pair of jeans from 2015 in the wardrobe as a measuring device and it is the only measurement i trust
well done

m7 99.2nearly quit at week three, the nausea was awful, somebody here told me to hold rather than push. month 13 now
genuine question i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some thinking about, thats just me
still here at month 14
bloods, blood pressure and the stairs all moved before the scale did anything interesting
thats the win

my wedding ring fits again after 15 months, does anyone else measure things that arent weight

congratulations, genuinely. and thank you for putting the caveats in, most people do not bother, anyway
[edited]thats not showing off

my milestone was tying my shoes sitting upright. it is not an endpoint in any trial
right so coming back after 15 months to say i kept it off, is that useful to anybody
i log kilos because i think in kilos and put pounds in brackets so nobody has to convert anything
a1c came back 5.6 from 6.9, can i be pleased about that or is it too early to say anything
the milestone that mattered was fitting an aeroplane seat without the extender, and i was embarrassed by how much, happy to be corrected
is it bad form to say i havent had a single side effect
somebody talked me out of quitting at week three and i never said thank you properly
down 13 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine
the ring fitting again was worth more to me than any number on the scale ever was

m7 99.2i want to say something in here but im worried about sounding like im showing off
keep going
10kg is about 22lb and i still get that conversion wrong at least once a month
i was down 33 at month six and then nothing at all for eleven weeks. it moved again. the eleven weeks were not a failure, thats one data point
