Reflections Month 5

Looking Back on Month 5: (weeks 17 - 20) 1.7

Hit Halfway - 154.6 - on 12/20/24  
It's been a month.    Not even close to what I wanted to lose but it's still an average of a pound a week.    We'll see how this week goes with getting diet and exercise back on track.   Then decide if it's time to move up.  All in All considering the holidays...I'm happy.

12/01 - 12/10 - 158.6 to 158.0 - 0.6lbs (+2 days)  - 158.0 on Wed 12/4

12/10 - 12/18 - 158.0 to 155.4 - 2.6lbs (+1 day)   - 156.6 on Wed 12/11

12/18 - 12/25 - 155.4 to 156.0 + 0.6lbs  (Lowest Wt - 154.0 12/20)

12/25 - 01/01 - 156.0 to 154.6 - 1.4

Month Total - 4lbs Down

Measurements:

               Waist  - 37
               Hips   - 43
               Thigh - 21

                Bicep - 11.75                     Bicep - 0.25in

Symptoms/Side Effects:

12/01 - 12/10 - Some nausea.   Much less duration than prior 7 day doses.   

12/10 - 12/18 - Nope - nausea is back.   It's more of a low level queasiness much more frequently with bouts of heavier queasy and very occasionally a full blown nausea.    My body fully rejected food one night because it was apparently too much dairy?   who knows. 

12/18 - 12/25 - nausea specifically the night after the shot.   low level queasiness otherwise.   Thursday is now officially Tired Thursday.   AND I just realized that my sneeze incontinence has mostly resolved itself now that I'm almost halfway to my goal.

12/25 - 01/01 - a bit more constipation, need to up fiber.  No nausea the evening after but gag reflex is hair trigger.   Definitely more hiccups and DRY TONGUE.   It gets super dry overnight.   

Exercise:

12/01 - 12/10 - I'm definitely failing at this.   Really need to tone arms, they are a bit saggy.

12/10 - 12/18 - Just trying to get to Christmas. 

12/18 - 12/25 - Christmas

12/25 - 01/01 - Just making it to January
