2017 AUG 25 -- Day 6


6:15 AM on August 26 right now. I'm discouraged, but it's only Day 6. Got on the scale a few times today, and my body is being weird again. There's no way I could gain 6 lbs in one day, right?

Starting weight: 415 lbs
Current weight: 410.6 lbs ⇧ 
Long-term Goal: 145 lbs
Short-term Goal: 399 lbs

 I wonder if I'm doing this right. I wonder if smelling food violates the 2-hour flavorless window. I wonder if my weight is fluctuating due to other factors such as bloat and water retention.

I did have quite a bit more food this "weekend" than I typically do. I'll continue as planned and hope for better numbers to come. I don't want to try "noseplugging" as others have done; it sounds miserable.

Basically, noseplugging entails wearing noseplugs like those worn by swimmers for the 2-hour flavorless window and sometimes during meals for more of a boost in the effect. I tried swallowing while holding my nose, and it made my ears pop. That's definitely not for me!

I ate far too much graph:

2017 OCT 2 -- Day 44

So far this month (I'm doing 30-day "months," so this is not based on the actual calendar months), I have lost a total of 7.2 lbs. That means I'm losing about a half-a-pound a day. This is not ideal. I was hoping to lose a pound per day. Right now I am at 386.6 lbs. This is good. I'm down from yesterday, but I'm only down by 0.6 lbs. Reducing by only a half-a-pound a day will get me to my goal twice as slow! Ugh. I should be happy I'm losing, and I shouldn't be upset that it's not fast enough. By anyone's standards, I'm losing too quickly. The average is, like, 10 lbs per month, and I'm on par to lose about 15 lbs in this 30-day period. It's more than expected or average, but it's half of what I wanted. Starting weight:  415 lbs Current weight:   386.6  lbs  ⇩  Long-term Goal:  145 lbs Short-term Goal:  359 lbs In my last 30-day period, I started by graph out at 415 lbs, but I wasn't sure of that number as I didn...
