Not such a good week – blame it on the weather!!
Starting weight (25 May 2018= 273lb)

Average weigh last week = 190.3 lb
Average weight this week = 190.4 lb
Weight gain over the week is 0.1 lb
Note: I weigh every day first thing and calculate weight loss based on average weight for the.


A year and six weeks of lockdown and 33 weeks home from hospital since discharge after stroke and I have to report a small gain of 0.1 lb over the week. It could have been more and today’s weight is 1.4 lb higher than last Sunday’s. I managed a calorie deficit of more than 500 calories each day but the weather was awful with torrential rain, sleet, hail and a cold wind. This limited outdoor activity to going up to plots twice a day to put on and take off tomato plant frost protection in the polytunnel. If it had not been for FitBit challenges and my competitive nature there is no way that I would have achieve daily goals of 10,000!steps and 5 miles. Thanks to all who participated with me in these FitBit challenges(goal day, daily challenge and bingo). I still have the problem of too many white carbs in my meals that I find difficult to resist.If the weather improves in the coming week and I can get work done in the allotment and can resist treats and white carbs I should be able to record as-mall loss or standstill at worst in the coming week and that is my goal.
I hope you all have had a good week and that you are all keeping safe and fit in these uncertain times. I hope the easing of the lockdown restrictions, the possible problems with the Oxford Zeneca vaccine and the threat posed by new COVID variants is not having too much of a detrimental effect on your scales. Keep positive and safe
