Health report #8 / myLot

Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio

October 20, 2018 3:53pm CST

During my third week back from the gym, I've doubled servings when necessary, snacked, had dessert, and ate between meals. The calorie range was 2400-2800 and stayed mainly in the middle. Last week was an up week, since this week was a down week. I weighed 107.4 this morning, losing only half a pound I've gained last week. At least I didn't downward spiral and lost any more to that. No word from my brother via text. Once again, tater tots and ice cream were my junk food vices. I hope next week is better to get me to 108.5 by next week. I'll try harder and eat more between now and Thanksgiving to get me to my goal.

@amadeo Three years ago, I was 130-135 before the gym. So I lost 30 pounds or so. I'm now at 107.4. I need to gain 13 pounds to get at 120.

You must have been quite ill. I'm sure you're getting in healthy high calorie food, too.

@sallypup Yes I was. Now I've toned it down to 3-4 days a week at the gym. No word when I'll resume my swim lessons yet.

Not ill. Just lost a lot of weight in 3 years while being active. Yeah I'm doing my best on that part.

It sounds like you are doing OK, just try not to slack off. I guess your brother doesn't want to be involved with your weight woes.

I won't. I'm doing the best I can my friend. Well he does from time to time when he has something to say other than no comment. He could've been busy.

I agree with Alfredo, some bodies are not made to put on weight.

@KristenH According to the medical table I have been underweight since I was 1 years old. I have never had a cold or a flu during all my life. I do not care if I am underweight, until I am healthy.

Maybe so. But every little bit of weight counts these days.

You are doing good. Maybe try chocolate in there too. Or anything high in sugar

@KristenH I know you are. And I know it can be just as hard for you to gain as for some of us to lose weight. Maybe we could find a way to suction from the ones that need less and give it to the ones that need a little more.

I volunteer to donate.
