    My husband came home from his conference and immediately ordered pizza for dinner. I had half a Philly steak Papadia, a piece of pizza and 3 breadsticks. <<This is what happens with no groceries and no back up plan!
    But I will say this.. no groceries equals no Coke Zero which made it easier for me to stop when I’m full!

    I got a DEXA scan this past Monday. My last scan was five months ago. I rely on these scans more than my scale to tell me what my percent body fat is, among other things. Comparing this scan to the one I got last October, there is good news and bad news:
    • good news: I've lost another ~12 lbs of fat mass 😀
    • bad news: I also lost ~5 lbs of lean mass 😟
    • good news: my visceral adipose tissue is down another couple pounds to 3.08 lbs 😀
    • good news: the visceral adipose tissue volume is down from 146 to 90 cubic inches 😀
    • bad news: my percent body fat is still around 29% 😟
    • will I ever get down to <25% body fat? 🤔

    Apparently, despite increasing my consumption of protein, I have yet to see my muscle mass increase or even hold steady. I guess I'll have to get really serious about strength training.

    Seems it is going slow and steady, still considering little to no exercise, I guess it ain't bad I am still loosing weight (fat and not water / muscle)

    so that's what it is called. Always wanted to do one of those, as I believe that the ideal weight (85 kg) for me given my skeletal structure is not in the realm of possibility. Just depended on BIA measures from weight machines.

    wish you luck with the strength training, I need to do those as well.

    Sunday: Week Day 3

    SW: 157 lbs
    PW: 154.9 lbs
    CW: 154.4 lbs
    GW: 140 lbs

    Trending in the right direction slowly but surely. On a good note, my inches in my waist went from 35 to 34! I’m extremely happy about that! I can actually feel the difference in my tummy area.

    I was able to exercise while enjoying spending time with my family yesterday. We went skating, which I haven’t done in forever! It was so much fun! It was a break from my typical normal day workout. We really enjoyed it ☺️

    Goals/Day/Comments: I "ran" a 5K today for the first time. I say "ran", but my pace was just under 18 minutes/mile which isn't all that fast. But I learned it's doable, so I'll try doing more of it. Who knows, maybe I can do a half marathon at some point (with a mix of jogging/walking).
