 Another week is in the books.  I'd love to say that I have lost a bunch of weight this last week but that is not the case.  While it didn't go up it didn't go down by as much as I had wanted.  The lowest weight that I saw on the scale was 214.6.  So it's still down from the 217.6 that I started at.  However today when I got on the scale I was at 216 which I've seen before.  Not sure why but that's what it is.  The lack of weight loss in the past would bother me, and it still does now, but I'm happy that I'm off of my blood pressure medication.  Numbers have been looking really good (this morning's was a bit higher than what I've seen however).  While the weight isn't going down I feel like I'm putting on some muscle, even if it's a small amount! I'm hopeful that at some point the weight will come off and I can begin to see onederland!  It's going to take time and some experimentation to get there.   A couple of things to ...

Week 2 starting weight: 212.8 (after running) Week 2 ending weight: 216.2 (WTF!) Starting waist measurement (8/29/2022): 40.5 Starting chest measurement (8/29/2022): 38.7 Waist measurement (9/12/2022): 39.9 Chest measurement (9/12/2022): 38.4 A big WTF stepping on the scale this morning.  It was lower than my starting weight on 8/29/2022 (217.6) but most of my weigh ins have been a lot less than what I saw this morning.  Not going to put to much thought into it and move on.  I will say that on Friday night I had my wedding anniversary and I did splurge a bit there, but it wasn't super bad.  Ate keto for the most part the rest of the weekend.  Just one of those mornings where things were up.   The measurements being down is nice.  I knew they would be down based on how my shirts were fitting.  My XL shirts are pretty lose and I should probably wear a large shirts but they are still just uncomfortable enough (ie: tight) that I'll stick with my ...

 Monday - Weighed in and took waist and chest measurements.  These are the two areas where I hope to lose some inches.  They have always been my problem areas.  Weight wasn't as high as I thought it would be but also kind of where I expected it to be. Also...MCT oil is the bomb...lots of energy! Tuesday - Weight higher than Monday but we aren't going to let that get us down.   Wednesday - Weight down 3 pounds from the weigh in on Tuesday.  Nice to see that.  However I was up twice in the night to go pee!  Also getting out of bed I got a major cramp in my leg.  I ended up taking a salt drink as I think that's the reason why I got it.  Hopefully there's not to much of this cause that cramp was painful. Worst I've had in my life! Thursday  - Weight down almost 2 pounds...but not quite.  This would be the lowest that I saw the scale.  While I kept keto during this time it was also when I didn't keep as good of records b...
