  • Hours trained 3/1,000
  • Salads consumed:31/1,000

Notable Achivments: none that I wanted to track.

Lessons Learned:

Woah time flies.

One thing this week *really* hammered home was how important my thyroid medicamentation is. Not only regarding my weight, but also regarding my mental health. I was so busy I forgot to take it on Tuesday till Saturday – which means that a) my weight jumped up on these three days (and promptly took a nosedive after I took it again) and b) I promptly fell into a dark, nasty hole which felt uncomfortably similiar to the nasty places I’ve been in two, three years ago.

And here I’ve sworn to never be in this place again.

Anyway. Despite this trouble I lost more than 3 pounds between last Monday and this one. One part of me knows that this is just a downward spike and I’ll weigh more tomorrow1, but the other part of me goes “Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!” – if I can take down less than pound this week I’m going to reach my second serious goal of five kilo off just like planned in week 10. That would be sweet. I’d be right on schedule again! It actually might be worth a push, just to make that happen.

Still did no sport besides long walks, though. I’m about cancel my gym membership, to be honest.

Footnotes:

  1. My weight does not only spike upwards, but downwards. That’s okay though, I’m slowly learning to ride out those spikes.
