On Feb. 19 I went to the doctor and got on a scale for the first time since Dec. 2019. I suppose it could have been worse, but gaining 8 pounds in 2020 put me at a new high weight. So here I am on FS after ignoring my creeping gains since 2007.
Last Friday I read the doctors’ notes from two other remote appointments in February (thyroid and kidney). There were all of my excuses, documented along with the test results that I had received earlier (e.g., cholesterol spike since last June). Some reasons are better than others, but still.
So this is No More Excuses, Round 2. Round 1 was between 2003 and 2007 when I lost 50 pounds by logging everything I ate and doing Curves and Jazzercise (and at the end, a “real” gym membership) 6 days a week. As slow as it was, the monthly Curves weigh-ins kept me accountable (and I found I enjoyed the company and actually liked the weight machines!). I went to my high school reunion that summer and looked better than several of my classmates whose figures I had wanted so desperately instead of my own decades before. So far, being able to record my intake and analyze the overall picture here is actually highly motivating. More details when I update my bio eventually.
After three weeks of recording on FS, my average is 1220 cal/day on a 50-30-20 (good) carb-fat-protein ratio. I’m following guidance on healthy kidney diets, so won’t be doing keto though I wish I could.
Will be having my cholesterol rechecked in May. I do not want to have to go on medication!
Next time the doctors will write that I’ve started to turn all of it around, and this app and the people here are helping me. Thank you everyone for sharing your own stories, meals, what works and what doesn’t. All I wanted was a meal tracking app but this is so much more!
~Remembering to be grateful!
