It could have been better

 Well, at least it's down.


Starting weight Sept 6, 2024: 85.9 kg/189.4 lbs (BMI: 38.2)

Weight: 75.9 kg (-1.1 kg)/167.3 lbs (-2.5 lbs)

BMI: 33.8

Weight loss since Sept 6, 2024: 10 kg/22.1 lbs


Calories:

Sunday - 180

Monday - 0

Tuesday - 2481

Wednesday - 753

Thursday - 947

Friday - 720

Saturday - 1750 (cheat meal day/weigh-in day)


I started eating again. I thought keeping under 1000 calories would be enough, but obviously not, so I will try to go back to heavy restricting next week.

Turns out I did ovulate a few weeks back when my weight loss stalled, because I just got my period, i.e. three drops.

Had a large cheat meal Saturday: a Big Mac, a small fries, and a Daim McFlurry. Shouldn't have had the Flurry, too much lactose for my poor stomach. Lesson learned. I also had a roll of Menthos Fanta and six Japanese Yuzu gummies.

Finally

 I think it's safe to say that I finally broke that damn plateau around 79 kg. 


Starting weight Sept 6, 2024: 85.9 kg/189.4 lbs (BMI: 38.2)

Weight: 77 kg (-1.7 kg)/169.8 lbs (-3.7 lbs)

BMI: 34.2

Weight loss since Sept 6, 2024: 8.9 kg/19.6 lbs


Calories:

Monday - 457

Tuesday - 314

Wednesday - 379

Thursday - 224

Friday - 379

Saturday - 302 (cheat meal day/weigh-in day)


I've been so weak from not eating enough, but I don't have anything to eat, really, except for crisp bread. I tried to drink my protein shakes with water but it was worse than pond water. 

My sleep has been kinda bad this week too, mainly because we're in the middle of the November Sumo tournament. Due to the time difference between Sweden and Japan the broadcast doesn't start until 1.30am and if I'm awake at that time I will watch it (in bed) until it ends at 10am.

No cheat meal Saturday. I have American pancake mix and Kraft Mac n Cheese, but both felt too rich on an empty stomach.

Not enough

 My weight has fluctuated a lot this week, mainly because my sleep has been abysmal.


Starting weight Sept 6, 2024: 85.9 kg/189.4 lbs (BMI: 38.2)

Weight: 78.7 kg (-0.1 kg)/173.5 lbs (-0.2 lbs)

BMI: 35

Weight loss since Sept 6, 2024: 7.2 kg/15.9 lbs


Calories:

Sunday - 901

Monday - 898

Tuesday - 1130

Wednesday - 1005

Thursday - 783

Friday - 778

Saturday - 862 (cheat meal day/weigh-in day)


There's one and a half week until I get paid and I have zero money. Zero. I have one carton of almond milk left, but thankfully a lot of protein powder, which I can make with water (yuck, though). Some cheese, a box of Finn Crisp bread. No protein bars, no grapes. No wet food for my cat, only kibbles which he hates.

Obviously no cheat meal this week.

Down, down, down

 I officially started with Rybelsus 14mg Tuesday morning, although I've been taking 14mg since last week (2x7mg). The nausea has been bad.

Saturday - 688 (cheat meal day/weigh-in day)


I can't believe it; I'm under 79 kilos! Another milestone crossed out, heading for the next one at 73 kg (my weight at uni). I've lost over 37 kilos (81.6 lbs) since my highest. I wish I had photos from then; I've only got photos from when I was 97.5 kilos/215 lbs.

So yeah, I caved. I bought red grapes, but kept them locked up and only took out 100 grams (75 calories) for my evening meals. Totally worth it, will do again.

The cheat meal this week was Japanese curry with Japanese rice. I ate a few spoons, felt sick, threw away almost a full meal. I hate wasting food.
