Highlights from this day
  • declared_value — the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance, ill dig out the number i overclaimed early on in here, got gently… 12:58
  • blank_run — follow up the win i did not expect was sleeping through the night. i had forgotten that was available, still working it out 14:17
  • non_scale_win — cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night 10kg is about 22lb and i still get that conversion wrong at least once a month 14:52
  • ghk_gia — coming back after 24 months to say i kept it off, is that useful to anybody 16:17

the milestone that mattered was fitting an aeroplane seat without the extender, and i was embarrassed by how much

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

NS

repeat sleep study came back better, has anyone else moved out of the range they were in

NS

down 31 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine

SURMOUNT-OSA reported roughly what i got, which surprised me, i had assumed the trial people all did better

GG

coming back after 24 months to say i kept it off, is that useful to anybody
