Success/struggles:

My weight has been all over the place this last week. My body reacts to a reduction in activity – especially driving or sitting in situations where I can’t easily get up and move about. So on Wednesday I drove up to my daughters – less than 2 hours in the car but I also sat more in the evening than I would usually. Then on Thursday I drove home in the afternoon – still less than 2 hours. On Saturday we went to the theatre – sitting in a train for about 90 minutes each way plus sitting in the theatre for 2 hours. On Wednesday morning I weighed in at 47.5 kg but on Sunday morning I was 48.6 kg. But by Monday morning it had dropped again to 47.8 kg.

Successes of the week:
Running about 12-15km each week, feeling really great about the improvement in my fitness.

Struggles of the week:
Scale is bouncing all over the place… less sleep, travelling, more carbs, salty food, increased exercise… Happy Scale says the trend is ‘0.2.lb gained over 90 days’ (100g) so not much to panic about but I can reduce the amount of exercise calories I eat back to see if that’s being overestimated (approx 76 days since taking up running, possible correlation there). Of course, it could also be 100g of new muscle…?
