Once again, my weight loss plan has worked in reverse. Oops.
The first three weeks were bad, a snack-laden mess. On the 9th I did actually lose weight, technically, shedding 0.1 pounds. After that, it was balloon time, with my weight peaking at 167.5 pounds on the 26th. I impressively lost 2.2 pounds over the next four days when the snacks were put aside instead of put into my tummy.
But it still left me two pounds up for the month.
The negatives:
- Up two months in a row
- I’m now up on the year to date as well
The positives:
- This is less than last month’s gain of 2.2 pounds
- The snacking purge means actual weight loss may occur
- While I’m now up 1.2 pounds on the year, that should at least be pretty easy to erase in the next few weeks
- My body fat percentage remained unchanged at 24%, which means I may have actually gained a little muscle weight?
- My knees are feeling better. This matters because I didn’t run as much in April because the knees were feeling stiff, so I should be able to run more often in May.
