Back on track for now. I've been drinking protein shakes for lunch which I think has helped. I'm still not where I want to be in terms of exercise, but for now I'm maintaining my under 200 goal.

Omg, complete collapse of the willpower dam between me and calories yesterday.

It was ugly. Worse, it had nothing to do with Canadian Thanksgiving.

Weigh-in tomorrow.

The next couple of weeks will be chaotic. I've already packed up the pantry, and on Saturday movers will pack up the whole kitchen, and then next week will be entirely consumed with moving and unpacking. So frozen dinners, takeout, restaurant meals, and stress will rule the next couple of weeks.

Thanks for the video. I'm thinking of picking up a kettlebell this winter. I've been doing similar things with some dumbbells but a kettlebell would change things up which isn't bad. I will have to work on a good space; I don't have a lot of room for swinging things in the room I use and I don't want to move to the basement.

You really don’t need a whole lot of space to work out safely with a kettlebell. If you can lie on the floor with your arms stretched out over your head, then you should have enough space to perform the vast majority of kettlebell exercises, including swings, cleans, presses, squats, and most variations of those movements.

However, if you're still unsure, you can use a simple test to check for clearance for swing-based exercise. Consider whatever object (such as a wall or bookcase) may be confining your space. Walk up to that obstruction with your arm and hand extended. When your fingertips touch the object, take a big step back. You’ve now verified the minimum required space in front of you for swinging a kettlebell. To make sure you have sufficient room behind you for the backswing, turn around in place, and reach forward with your arm and fingers. If you cannot touch anything, you have enough space for backswings. Now, you can turn back around and safely swing, clean, press, and squat away.



I suspect you'll discover that kettlebells are a much more effective and efficient tool for developing overall strength, endurance, and muscle while greatly boosting fat-burning potential, particularly in comparison to dumbbells. This is because kettlebell routines engage multiple muscle groups simultaneously, with a strong focus on core strength and stability. Every single muscle is used, and every single muscle is worked hard during a kettlebell workout. This is a key reason for the growing popularity of kettlebells; they provide a low-impact, full-body workout in less time than most other forms of exercise, as kettlebell routines typically combine cardio and strength training, allowing for shorter workout durations while still achieving maximum results. For example, a kettlebell swing utilizes ballistic power from the hips, quads, and glutes, while also activating the abdominals to enhance overall core strength. This type of comprehensive muscle engagement is what makes kettlebell routines so remarkably efficient and effective. Additionally, kettlebells offer a wide variety of exercises and routines, making them versatile and enjoyable to use, which can increase the likelihood of maintaining a consistent workout regimen and actually achieving fitness goals.

BTW, if you're just starting out, I'd recommend purchasing one of these RepFitness Adjustable Competition 20-40lb Kettlebells:



It provides terrific bang for your buck, because it saves space and can be easily adjusted to 20, 25, 30, 35, or 40lbs. It’s quick and effortless to adjust -- you simply push down and twist to add or remove weight. More importantly, unlike most other adjustable kettlebells, it provides a consistent competition-style window and shape that keeps your lifts feeling consistent no matter which weight you choose.

Weight has been dipping back to below 171 so I upped my daily intake by another 50 calories per day. I'm guess as the weather gets cold and I jog less that this going to cause a dramatic shift but I want to build muscle and maintain or even have a light gain so I'll keep fiddling. Even at 3400 to 3500 calories day now, I'm almost always hungry.

[stessier]

I ran 19 miles yesterday, only ate 2200 calories, and somehow gained a pound - so I'll swap with you! (I know it's just daily variation, but I'd prefer it to vary in the other direction!)

[LordMortis]

19 miles My knees are beginning to feel the five miles I jog/walk. I suspect I get so many calories because of my crone's and I'm just no efficient at extracting calories nor nutrients, eating is doing very little to curb my hunger and even when I'm up to 140 grams of protein a day I'm not building strength from all my activity. Still, I'll keep plugging along.

My left knee is beginning to feel the jogging. it's not really pain but it might be soon and it might be if put stretching or strength stress on it. I may need to take another day off from the jogging. I've already gone from 5 to 4 as my jogging time gets longer. 4 to 3 could be in my very near future. I'm reducing my daily steps mental floor and trying to work on alternate workouts. Working on plans for leg strengthening/more full upper body strengthening/core strengthening/stretching, yoga maybe. It will be a while until those plans come together. I'm not a quick mover on these things. My weight continues to stay in a good range but I'm monitoring it.

I have accomplished much this year. Losing weight isn't part of it. Now that I'm out of my old neighborhood I've stopped walking entirely, although I'm still far from sedentary. These boxes aren't unloading themselves and some furniture is still shuffling around.

[JCC]

I am a pretty rabid walker. I walk 7 miles 5-7 days a week. My total walk distance for this year so far is 1196 miles. I have also lowered my weight down to the 178-182 range. The last time I was at this weight was in my early 30's after about 6 months of South Beach which was an effective diet, but not something I could stick to long term. I am 51 now and the last time I was in this weight range was in my 20s-early30s. (My all time heaviest when I was married was around 240.)

Of course for weight loss, the exercise is just the cherry on top. It's much more about what and how much you eat.

[GreenGoo]

Omg, complete collapse of the willpower dam between me and calories yesterday.

It was ugly. Worse, it had nothing to do with Canadian Thanksgiving.

Weigh-in tomorrow.

Wow, been awhile since I checked in. Weight still creeping downwards, which is good enough, I guess. Maybe a 1-1.5 lbs a week. Slow but steady.

I admit to being low effort this time around.

Screwed up my intake since the the 23rd so I edit my total. I had been marking two eggs a day and I've only been eating one egg a day. Not sure how that happened. I wonder if those extra 90 calories a day have anything to do with my perpetual hunger and my weight's continuing stability. I've not been jogging as I fear the feeling in my left knee will turn to pain if I continue put stress on it like I have. I was going to pick up today but it's supposed to rain. Trying to get steps in walking after I've been ramping up jogging for nearly a year just doesn't work. It's literally hours of my day that I don't want to give. I'm still mentally working on alternate exercise/active energy time and effort but I haven't put together a real plan much less started acting on it. I've been doing a leg strength day once a week but that's only been 10-15 of essentially weight shifting though, quite frankly, 10 five second squats are a real workout for me.

Edit: I keep thinking my calorie budget is about to get too large with my reduced activity first from colder weather and no from reducing my jogging but my weight is dipping too low so I'm adding another 50 calories a day to my daily budget. I fear when this turns around it will turn around fast but I guess I will just have to tweak the other way when that time comes. Anyhoo, going to +150 per day now.

I'm not power walking anymore and most likely won't start again until spring, being a stranger in a strange land now. I am going to count my walks to the mailbox and back...just under half a mile round-trip with a couple of pretty good hills. Better than nothing, I reckon.

Knee is still not great. I did get out for a walk/jog once and it was OK. I would have gone again yesterday but it was raining and I can't get out of my head at the moment. My weight is going down irrespective of my reduced activity. I didn't want to add more calories with winter coming on but I'm sinking to toward doing below 170.

Months of stressful disruption are finally in the rearview mirror and my weight is back where I started. I consider that a win.

Got back up to two days with jogs. I hope to keep it there but I am still mitigating concerns about injury. I seem to be a weight equilibrium for now. I wouldn't mind some slow muscle gain, but I'll take where I'm at, with my reduction in attempt to build muscle for the moment.

Think I've figured out where I can start walking again. We're near the southern end of a rail trail a short drive away that runs for 15 miles, paved and flat. Don't know when, but I want to at least check it out before snow flies.

[YellowKing]

I'm back to step counting again. I'm doing fine staying under 200 by eating better, but I've gotten a bit too sedentary during the day.

Yes, sedentary is a problem for me as well.

I keep thinking about upping my budget but I'm less active and sleeping in/more now that it's getting darker and colder. Perhaps trying to go from holding the line to building muscle will have to wait until spring... again... Also activity was even further down as I wasn't feeling well this week. I took two complete rest days where I didn't even do my aerobic walk to my body moving in the morning.

My weight is still dropping, as my appetite has not improved much after getting out of the hospital. I'm down to 180-185 range (I used to be 280 last year) and my pant size may have reduced again. I used to wear 42 (or 44) and I just found out the 38's I bought last month are getting loose at the waist that I have to tighten the belt. I may have to order a 36 x 29 for my next pair of pants, hopefully denim.

My weight is still dropping, as my appetite has not improved much after getting out of the hospital. I'm down to 180-185 range (I used to be 280 last year) and my pant size may have reduced again.

I may have to order a 36 x 29 for my next pair of pants, hopefully denim.

That was fast. I hope there aren't too many problems. I went from 42-44s down to 32s by the time I got to 175 from 270 in just over a year. I lost too much muscle that is not coming back so easily and I lost my weight in a mindful way. Though I would guess my accident recovery also did a number muscle loss greatly exacerbating what I was already doing to myself. If I could do it again I'd go slower, even as I wished it would go faster at the time. Losing weight in my 50s was a bit different than doing it in my 40s or 30s. As is everything else. Also my appetite never went anywhere. Even now, I'm back up over 3000 calories a day and I'm always hungry.

Be well.

[Kasey Chang]

That hospital stay back in July didn't help matters. And muscle loss is real. I double-shuffle stairs and I have no stamina. It's a bit better now, and I really get myself on an exercise regimen.

[YellowKing]

I thought I was going to be in big trouble, as I have been eating birthday cake every morning for the past three days and went out for a big dinner Tuesday. I was afraid to step on the scale this morning, but was pleasantly surprised to see I had lost a pound.

The only conclusion I can draw from this is that birthday cake makes you lose weight.

Cold and darkness have my activity levels in the toilet. On the bright side, for the first time in recent memory I haven't been hungry all of the time. I probably should eat less but I'm still food obsessed and I also still won't balk at a few pounds but with my activity so low only a few at this point.

[YellowKing]

I went back up to 200 (thanks, Thanksgiving!), but I knew I was in for a weight shift with the big meals. I'm back on track now and as long as I can drop a pound or two in the next couple of weeks before my doctor appt I should be good.

[LordMortis]

I thought not being so active was curbing my constant hunger but as it turns out it must have just been turkey and stuffing curbing my hunger. That feeling of empty stomach ubiquity had crept back in again over the last two days. *harumph*

[Kraken]

I didn't update this week because I forgot. I'm sure I gained a pound or two due to Thanksgiving gluttony, but next week's menu plan will atone. It's soup season.

I think I'm trying to prevent the beginning of a cold from becoming a full blown cold, so at first I was sad that I was taking it lazy but now I'm intentionally taking it easy. It's been so long since I caught anything (other than latent TB) that I forgot what being sick was like. My last cold was early COVID sometime after I was added to the necessarily allowed to go to work list in my state. Also, we had a gaming day in which my step count not only dipped but even with deliberate walking I ended the day at 3000 steps. So yeah, a bit run down right now.

I survived my annual physical. While my blood pressure was still a little more elevated than he wanted, it wasn't a significant change from last year so he's still in "keep an eye on it" mode. Otherwise the lab work was excellent. More importantly he never even mentioned my weight, which I take as a good sign. I was a bit worried since I did pack on a few pounds over the past couple of weeks due to the holidays.

I'm still just under 200, so once I get past the holidays I'll really be focusing on trying to get down to around 190.

I've begun to make some improvements again after spiking in November. My snacking and emotional eating was out of control this autumn. I'm still struggling and I know the holidays will take their toll, but it seems my ketamine treatment may be improving my mental state a little. I'm so frustrated I erased my amazing spring. But all I can do is press forward and remember I'm still down an amazing twenty pounds over last year!

Time to slow down calories again. My activity level is beginning to be reflected in weight gain and it's not so high (not even close) as to hope that it's muscle gain at this point.
