(Warning: Opening lines are pretty upset. Don't worry though. Things get better. As always, writing usually makes me feel better about things...)
Seriously? You're kidding, right?
So, Wednesday last week I was at 87.7 kilos The lowest in MONTHS. Today, I am at 92.7 kilos. I'm up 5 frickin' kilos.
I'm not sure how that's even possible.
To put my own logic:
One kilo is 7000 calories. To gain one kilo worth of fat, I'd have to consume 7000 calories MORE THAN I BURN. I burn around 3000 calories on an easy day. So I'd have to consume about 70,000 calories over the course of a week for this to be a 100% fat gain.
Obviously, this didn't happen. I swear, I did NOT eat 50 pizza and forgot about it. :)
Today is the day where I wish I had tracked my fat percentage, my water, my muscle.
Today I registered those numbers, and I'm gonna follow them closely, daily.
There is no way I gained 11 lbs in a week.
So, where is it that things are off? Is this STILL from the Birthday weekend? Can it really settle that hard? I know I have felt constipated. I know that the pizza I had (a full one, 1500 calories give or take) will mess with me for DAYS. I think I have had one bother me for a full week at some point.
I know I didn't just magically gain 11 lbs of muscle. I do work out kinda hard, but not THAT hard. :)
On www.madlog.dk - the new place I use to register my foods - there are options to register these other stats, and I'll start punching in those numbers on a regular basis. Just make that a habit too. That way I can track what is going on.
For the record, these are the stats that I am entering:
Date: March 6th, 2013 Weight: 92.7 kgs "To lose": 12.7 kgs Fat%: 23.3 % TBW% (water) 55.9 % MUS% (muscle) 38.7 % Bone: 3.2 kgs
(So, it turned out that I can actually only enter weight and fat% at madlog.dk - but something interesting DID happen. I am so high up in weight today that I essentially haven't lost ANYTHING since I joined around new year. However, my fat percentage is down 3.3%! That's gotta count for SOMETHING, right?)
I find it comforting that I have not lost or gained any bone over the time I have had this scale. lol.
Now, I need to look in the manual to be sure of all the numbers, what they actually are representing, and if the are kilos or percentages.
Allright, so I did that. The fat, the water, the muscle - they're all percentages. Weight, The "Until you reach goal weight", and the bone is all kilos.
Which is interesting, because if I do NOT count the 3.2 kilos of bone, then the rest of me is 117%! LOL. Does that mean I'm fat? Hahahaha....
Anyways, as always I find these numbers to just be a guide line. I can't really use them for anything more specific.
I am actually paying for a "body check" at the gym. Since I'm big and heavy today, maybe I should ask to get it done? I'm thinking today would be a great day for it, to track progress. I get one of these per month in my subscribtion.
...
So what's in store for today, you ask?
Well, I'm heading to the gym in one hour, to be there when they open. I really wish they'd open an hour earlier, but what can I do?
After gym, I'm going to work. I think it's a reasonably simple day, so I have a chance to finally catch up on a few things that needs to be done. I'll be pretty busy with that, I think. This is a good thing, as I really don't want to have time to think about foods.
I'm hoping to skip lunch, if I'm not too hungry. I want to knock some of this weight off, but not at the cost of hunger. Hunger makes me want to eat more at dinner, and that ain't happening.
Dinner will probably be a pita on the way out, because of my evening plans.
My drummer and I will be travelling a few towns over to check out a monthly jam session thing. We haven't gone before, so we don't really know what to expect, but I'm bringing my awesome bass guitar, and we'll see what happens. Maybe it's super fun and we'll be back month after month, maybe it's just meh.
Regardless, I'll make sure to have fun. That's what it's all about.
So, today I'm thankful for: - Still feeling that I have focus on my weight loss journey even after the most disheartening weigh-in ever. EVER. I do feel that I am doing good. - A great night's sleep again. I need this. It's been some long days this week. - Focus focus focus.
Life is good!
