Up a pound. Permanently under 250, though, hopefully.

j 250 is in the rear view mirror.

Yup. It's so weird to have gained all that weight. I swung so steady for so long and, poof, one health crisis and I was almost all the way back where I was before I started low-carbing. Inflammation is so crazy. I have 20-30 pounds until normal. Feeling the weight loss, though. I am not going hungry or anything but I am feeling so depleted and my body is freaking out and not happy. It really doesn't like weight loss at all, ever, and takes awhile to adjust.

The inflammation gives you a good reason t keep going.

Who, having a bad cold and moving house seems to be good for my weight. Please stay off, pounds!

I'm away this week so no more weighins. See you on the other side. Good luck, all!

Snowing in New York and my first day if my new job is tomorrow
School is delayed 2 hours for now
I hope my new employer understands

Weight in the morning was 144.6

I bought a fancy new scale as my "10 lb. loss" reward, because the old one was just too unreliable. It would vary as much as 2 lbs. if I stood on it several times in a row. I'd had it a long time and I think the bathroom humidity got to it. The new scale is more reliable, but it's about 1-1/2 lbs higher than my old one (as near as I can tell from the old one ). That means my weight is up in numbers today. I don't feel horrible about it, because I still think I lost about 2 lbs. this week from where I was and my measurements are down a bit. And thankfully, it's only another pound and half to lose--not 5 or 10!

We are close to New York and the snow was kind of crazy. Plowed right away, though. Ate too carby this morning for brunch (chili with corn and beans). Traveling is always just a touch more difficult with keeping to plan.

I'm back and I brought a lot of weight with me. I'm confused about my wt. At the drs office I weigh 2lbs less and at the gym today 1.5lbs less. I guess it's because I wear a lot of clothes in the morning to weigh. I still wear clothes to both those places and I've eaten.

NAWCHEW-- scales are not the same; perhaps weigh at the same time with the same clothing ( or not, lol) following the same routine. Like before eating/drinking but after a potty stop. And go by your own scale. grin.
