Draglist's Journal, 06 Apr 15

OK, Easter 2015 is in the books and it's going to be a grand experiment. I weighed in at 224.0 this morning. That's 30.2 lbs. more than I weighed on March 21 (193.8) and 25.4 lbs. more than I weighed on April 1, just six days ago! This is water weight resulting from nearly a full week of eating at 1.5 to 2 times my RDI and going way overboard on carbs and sodium. Today begins a number of days at 1500 to get back on track. I likely will alternate some 1000 and 1900 calorie days in there to keep the body guessing. Will drink a lot of water and will limit carbs and sodium. I'm out of town next weekend for my daughter's senior cello recital (which we are catering), but I'll try to cool it that weekend as well. Will be interesting to track how quickly I can get the weight back off.

Maybe it will come off just as quickly since it is mostly water. Best of luck and get to work getting that weight back off!!

Amazing how the body can react to changes in diet. Just curious, does your Tanita scale reflect the changes in water % accordingly in thes fluctuations?

I am with JennBuck61, I will be watching the experiment as well and see how we compare on the weigh ins, You lose weight alot quicker than me, My weighs in this Month are April 10, 24, 30. / I am amaze at your weight gain in a short amount of time, BUT ONCE AGAIN, YOU LOSE ALOT QUICKER THAN ME!!! Its almost embarassing on MY ENDthat I have been trying to lose 20 pounds I think more than a year, but I am making progress. I have learned alot on the fatsecret journey. Weight loss is alot different in the 20's vs's the 40's!!!!!

Thanks for the feedback on the scale Bill. I decided to get a Tanita BC-533 instead of the Fitbit model, ordered it today. The Tanita gives additional information plus costs less...I'll have to track the data myself by entering it in a speadsheet or something similar but that's not a problem.

Man Bill I was freaking out about how much/fast I gained weight in February and you did it faster. Of course my thyroid was down too. Got that fixed and lost 9 of those pounds again. I'm trying to figure out what's going on with the muscle gain. I don't have fancy technology (I wish) but my neck, upper arms, and both thighs are smaller than a month ago so something good is going on.
