New low, and only 3 pounds away from the lowest weight I got to last year! Now for the rambling.


So I'm keeping a spreadsheet with my weight daily. I've mentioned before that I seem to stall a lot. When I lost a bunch of weight last year just eating less calories and running a lot the same thing happened, stall for weeks, drop 5 pounds in a few days, etc. The same thing seems to be happening here too on a ketogenic diet with weight training being my primary method of exercise. My pattern so far:

1/10 - 2/8 - first month is easy, water weight to drop, etc. Went from 323-310.

2/8 - 3/4 - 25 days in a row, weight fluctuates between 308-312.

3/5 - 3/21 - 15 days in a row, some kind of trend downward but still pretty damn stagnant. Weight fluctuates between 307-309 (better than 308-312)

3/22 - 4/1 - lost 7 pounds in 10 days, woohoo, dropped from 307.6-300.5

4/1 - 4/14 - 13 days in a row, weight fluctuates between 299.5-300.5.

4/15 - 4/16 - dropped from 300 - 297.6 in two days, now to see if this is the start of another bigger drop or if I'm gonna spend another 2 weeks at like 296-298.


I dunno, I ramble here when I update, makes me feel better for some reason. Clearly things are working, keto/low carb is working so well for me and I'm feeling really good. I just wonder exactly how fucked up my metabolism/body are for this to be how I lose weight over the last couple years when I'm eating right.
