229

Is that even possible?
The last time I weighed myself on that scale was about 3 weeks ago. I was 243.
Since then, I've started running again (about 3 times a week) and started Metformin (for the PCOS) and Lisinopril (for high blood pressure). I've also found a penchant for cookie dough and ice cream that I haven't curbed.

Although now that I write that, I'm also realizing I've inadvertently altered some of my eating habits- fewer snacks at work in the last 2 weeks (if you don't have 'em, you can't eat 'em), no snacks after dinner. Bringing lunch (nearly) every day. Little else has changed.

I'm not noticing a difference in my clothes/body but most of my clothing is baggy in general (and I'm not at the place where investing in new clothing seems reasonable) and I'm constantly wearing belts with pants anyway.

I am sleeping more (7am? It's so eeeearly!) and have no motivation to get up earlier (last year at this time, I was out of bed at 5:40 most mornings for training. In the summer, even earlier) but I also can't seem to get to bed before 11am (last year it was 10-10:30 almost every night).

I think I need to keep tracking this and see where it is going.
We are heading to the beach in mid-May and I'm also wondering what I can accomplish by then- I wouldn't mind fitting into the size 18 suit I bought in September...or having to buy another one!
