March

After set-build day 127.6.

Slept for a few hours, recheck 126.2, woke up very, very thirsty.

I'll go with 127 for the official March weight.

I ate a proper breakfast before set building because set construction is very physical. I grazed a bit at lunchtime, then went home and fell asleep in the evening.

I had a big bowl of cottage cheese with chow mein noodles when I got up. I MUST fuel better or I will crash soon trying to keep this up. The way to maintain, for me, is always, always to get smart and eat more before my body decides it's starving and sends me on a binge rampage.

Year In Review:
January 1: 134
February 1: 132
March 1: 127

The weird thing is, I'm not really sure when I started losing real weight again. At the new year, I wasn't completely confident that the 134 was real loss. At this point I'm sure my real weight (not just "I'm dehydrated and my belly has been empty for 2 days" weight) is not more than 130.

I'm noticing subtle changes in my body. I feel my ribs more easily. You can see my xiphoid process (the top of your breastbone that sticks down a little below your ribcage) when I stretch my arms over my head. My tummy fluff is the slightest bit less fluffy, which unfortunately makes the loose skin more baggy.

My collarbones are more prominent than they have ever been, I think. I wonder if it's related to the loose skin somehow?? I was doing my hair in the 3-way mirror a few days ago and saw that if you are looking over my shoulder from behind my collarbone makes a visible arc sticking out from the line between my neck and shoulder. It is a strange sight.
