the win i did not expect was sleeping through the night. i had forgotten that was available
10kg is about 22lb and i still get that conversion wrong at least once a month
the ring fitting again was worth more to me than any number on the scale ever was

sorry to jump in 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
ring fitting is the best one
repeat sleep study came back better, has anyone else moved out of the range they were in
Inter-lab diff for lot KP-0925: 98.6% vs 99.2%. Within expected range.
a1c 6.9 to 5.4 over ten months. not diabetic on paper anymore and i still do not quite believe it

love this channel
😂1✅4
bloods, blood pressure and the stairs all moved before the scale did anything interesting
does anyone else keep one pair of old jeans purely as a measuring device
please say it. this channel exists for exactly this and nobody here is bored of hearing it
my knees stopped hurting and i genuinely did not expect that, has anyone had the same
brilliant a1c
is there a point where you stop weighing daily

anyone else find the compliments harder to handle than the weight itself
honest caveat on mine: i also started walking and lifting, so my numbers are not a clean read on the drug, ill dig out the number
first time under a number i havent seen since 2016, what did people do at that point

*that should say weekly
the milestone that mattered was fitting an aeroplane seat without the extender, and i was embarrassed by how much, i think
*Medutest not the other one
how do you celebrate this without it being about food

half a stone in 20 weeks sounds slow written down and felt enormous while it was happening
slightly off topic but resting heart rate went from 82 to 64 over a year. the weight, the walking, or both, i genuinely do not know

sorry to jump in down 60 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine
went from stopping halfway up the stairs to carrying shopping up them without noticing, and that is the whole win
thats a big drop
cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night, i have it written down somewhere
