went from stopping halfway up the stairs to carrying shopping up them without noticing, and that is the whole win
i measure my waist as well because it kept moving through two separate stalls
how do you celebrate this without it being about food

genuine question my wedding ring fits again after 15 months, does anyone else measure things that arent weight
is it bad form to say i havent had a single side effect
bloods, blood pressure and the stairs all moved before the scale did anything interesting
while im here blood pressure was 148 over 94 at baseline and 126 over 80 today, is that the weight or coincidence
does anyone else keep one pair of old jeans purely as a measuring device

youre allowed to be pleased
thank_you_year_onwhile im here blood pressure was 148 over 94 at baseline and 126 over 80 today, is…
i was the one who nearly quit at week three and now i am the one saying hold, which i find funny
went up two flights of stairs without stopping and then had to sit down for a completely different reason
my knees stopped hurting around 47 down and i had assumed that was permanent damage
i overclaimed early on in here, got gently corrected, and i deserved it
cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night

update on the earlier thing i want to say something in here but im worried about sounding like im showing off
thats brilliant
half a stone in 18 weeks sounds slow written down and felt enormous while it was happening
my milestone was tying my shoes sitting upright. it is not an endpoint in any trial
coming back after 18 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
ok so 9 down in 15 months and honestly the stairs were the bit that got me, not the scale
down 59 and my resting heart rate dropped 9 bpm, related or not
the milestone that mattered was fitting an aeroplane seat without the extender, and i was embarrassed by how much
the win i did not expect was sleeping through the night. i had forgotten that was available
