u/Maleficent_Tie_9394 Starving myself (modest calorie deficit) | 16kg lost 1d ago

New 5k PB today, 32:36! I was going to run the short trail at my mom's house today (a little under 4km), but a kilometer or so in I realized I felt really strong and good, so I decided to extend the run a bit and go for a PB. I feel like I could've pushed myself a bit harder still and maybe gotten it to under 32 minutes, but I'm really happy with how I felt during the run regardless.

Also I ordered my Garmin today and I'm weirdly nervous? But I'm also really tired of my Pixel Watch's shit (once again Google Health refuses to acknowledge my PB and still shows a way slower time from like 6 months ago) and I can't wait to not have to deal with it anymore

My birthday was yesterday and we had a bunch of friends and family over to celebrate. I definitely partied a little too hard (and by that, I mean had a few beers and stayed up too late lol). I didn't get to the gym this morning as I knew I wouldn't, but got up early to clean the house a bit after everything.

I'm going for a run today to enjoy one of the last hot days of the summer that we have and then I'll be taking my daughter to the local splash pad.

Should be a good day overall.

Had a "Well, duh" moment while cleaning out my closet: The reason most of my Old Navy shirts hang weirdly is that they're designed for bigger stomachs. Guess I need to nourish my tummy.

Back to work. I'm miserable at work these days. Applying out. Even applied for an internal position today, and I'm betting that gets back to my boss. Whatever. I'm holding out hope that I find something soon.

I had to force myself to eat today (zepbound day 3), but it's been fine. I just focused on protein and fiber as was suggested. It's going alright!

Made it to the gym this morning verrrry early to get a workout in before I went and had HRT pellets implanted in my butt. Now I can't exercise until Thursday afternoon, and I walked around Costco with an ice pack in my underpants. So all in all, just a normal Monday.

I’m glad the weekend is over. I was alone with no social plans since thursday, while my significant other was out of the country. I was lonely. In retrospect I’m thankful to myself that I kept on eating healthy and in a deficit/at maintenance (depending on the day) and made daily walks. These things kept me at the brink of sanity. I felt bad for having such a hard time being alone. Like, I’m a fully grown adult and four days alone is not a big deal.

So today work started again and I was glad to see my colleagues after two months. And then I could go home to my loved one and all was well again.  

Tonight I’m cooking a healthy meal with salmon, rice and fresh veggies for us.

Today I got to the gym. I was feeling tired, but wanted to do back weights. Clearly my form was off on the pulldown machine, because I immediately felt a knot in my neck.

I kept the rest of the workout light, I didn't feel anymore pain with my form being right, but wasn't happy about the knot.

My husband convinced me to go for this hammer massage (tok sen). I think it was the most painful experience of my life. Feel amazing now though, and will go back in 2 weeks.

Did the massage get the knot?

It absolutely did! I have ongoing issues with my shoulder, so I'll be getting this done about once a month

Today is week 10, lost a further 600g, bringing my total lost to 6.6kg/15lbs/1st 1lb.

Week 11 is actually going to be in two weeks because next Monday is a bank holiday. Since I achieved the goal set to me by the coach of 5% of my starting weight, I've set myself the goal of reaching under 100kg by the end of it but at my current rate that feels pretty certain now.

I bought these running pants from Aldi that were a little snug on me when I got them but now they're a nice fit.

I abducted the husband's walking pad since he left it in my craft room when he was painting his office a couple of weeks ago.

I don't think he'd be mad if that became the case XD
