#weight trend

[tjemefitness]

So I just checked my weight trend for the last year via Fitbit. Weighed in at 270.6 in June of 2016 and I weighed in at 202.2 at the beginning of this month. It’s nice to see the charted progress; really shows how things came about. I’m not where I want to be yet but I'm getting there.

Weight loss is a gradual process with lots of dives, dips, and occasionally peaks. Don’t be discouraged if you aren’t progressing as quickly as you’d like to be. It takes a lot for you and your body to get on the same page. Keep going, you got this!

Interesting little problem.

Period 1 (14/02–13/03)

Weight average: 84.75 kg

Protein average: 157.2 g/day (02/03–13/03 only — start of intake tracking)

Calories average: 2,885.1 kcal/day (02/03–13/03 only — start of intake tracking)

Lift days: 6:28

Average steps: 10,586/day

Period 2 (14/03–10/04)

Weight average: 83.94 kg

Protein average: ≥197.7 g/day

Calories average: ≥2,935.8 kcal/day

Lift days: 8:28

Average steps: 11,304/day

So despite eating more, average weight is still lower across the second period. The complication is that I haven’t been training properly recently, but my steps show movement has still been high.

So this is not a true low-output period. It’s more like reduced lifting, high movement.

Before I restart lifting properly, I’m probably going to run a 3-week ~4,000 calorie test and see whether I still trend downward, maintain, or gain.

My weight chart for the latter part of 2015.

I know daily tracking isn’t for everyone, but it has helped me to at least stay below the orange line.
