February 2018 weight loss report: Up 2.2 pounds

There is no positive way to spin these (fat) figures, but I will offer a few caveats:

  • I was sick for the last week of the month and did no exercise, ate about the same and was generally slothful during this time
  • um, that’s about it. I was going to say I had fewer days this month to lose weight, but I also had fewer days to gain weight, but I managed the latter handily

On the bright side, I did manage to remain donut-free and reduced my general snack intake. I obviously did not eliminate it, as the numbers below attest. I did slow the rate of weight gain, which will be a nice precursor to actual weight loss…this month. Yes, this month. March is Weight Loss Month. Slim is in. Svelte is the new black.

February 1: 164.9 pounds
February 28: 167.5 pounds (+2.2 pounds for the month)

Year to date: From 162.3 to 167.5 pounds (up 5.2 pounds)

And the body fat:

January 1: 18.5% (30.2 pounds of fat)
February 28:
19% (32 pounds of fat–up 1.8 pounds)
