    Starting weight: 261.3
    Goal weight: 200
    Current weight: 262.3
    Past week weight gain: 3.0
    Total weight gained: 1.0
    Past week's disaster: Sustained a bad, enduring lower back strain last Monday. I’m now living in pain and mostly immobilized. Sitting down or getting up is miserable, getting into/out of a car is a slow, agonizing, multi-step process, walking is difficult and just changing position in bed is painful. I’m done planking for what’ll be quite some time and any kind of exercise is out of the question for the foreseeable future. This is bleak.
    This week's challenge: Trying to avoid gaining more weight while living in a recliner.

    Starting Weight- 192
    Current weight; 193.2
    Goal Weight- 140
    Total Lost- 0 (gained 1.2 since Jan. 1st)
    This weeks successes- none
    This weeks challenges- It seems that when I try to lose weight, I do worse. I end up gaining and eating more than normal. I used to have no problem losing weight. But I guess that's what happens as you get older (Ill be 28 on January 31st).

    I hope you get well soon. It's hard not to binge eat when you're immobile.

    Thanks for the thought. Unfortunately, I’ve “been here and done this” before. This one has all the hallmarks of one that’s going to take months to fully pull out of. I spent ~8 months recliner-bound in 2013 without gaining a pound, but holding a level weight was really difficult. Oh well--very small, keto-level meals with minimal carbs, no “treats” and lots of water for the next couple/few(?) months. With luck, I may have a beer on St Patrick’s Day.
