Daily Weight Loss updates SW:466 CW:447.8 Diabetic

[Absolute_Unit]

I created this to document my weight loss progress including the ups and the downs of my daily weigh ins. I will also be posting my meals and any and all workouts that I have during my weight loss journey. 

I am currently 447.8lb and I started my journey at 466lb in April of this year. I have cut out all junk food and I prepare my own meals while attempting to keep my caloric intake under 2200. I typically stay around 1700 calories a day. I have just recently started to return to working out and yesterday the 26th of May I was finally able to walk/jog 3miles without taking any breaks. 

As for my weight for today I am 447.8lb as of 6:30am. 

For breakfast I had a protein shake that has; Calories:155, Total fat: 7g, Total Carbs: 16g, and Protein: 48g. 

I am at work currently so my lunch update will be around 2:00pm today as long as I don't get too backed up. 😎

Edit: I put my current weight as 477.8 incorrectly.

You are doing really well @Absolute_Unit. How are you feeling?

[Absolute_Unit]

I am feeling pretty good for the most part. I did recently injure my knee when I went running on Monday but other than that I have not experienced any deep hunger pains or uncontrollable cravings. hopefully by this time next month I can say nothing has changed as far as how I am feeling at this current moment besides my knee.

I did not workout today due to a injury I sustained to my knee while I was jogging yesterday for my workout. 😞

For Dinner I had a Philly Cheese Steak due to me feeling down in the dumps for hurting my knee.

I am unsure of the macros for that meal but I know the calorie count is 955 which is ridiculous to say the least. I didn't have any sugary drinks with it so hopefully it wouldn't set me back that much if at all.

Loving your consistency! If running is giving you knee pain, perhaps look into biking, brisk walking, or other low impact cardio exercises. Once the weight comes off your joints, you'll be able to run again! Keep up the fantastic work! 

[Baltoscott]

For the knee issue my thought would be to try to work around it. Maybe try NOT running for a few weeks but keep up with the walking (so long as it doesn't hurt).  Alternative exercises always make sense as @AC363904 suggested.  I can definitely relate though. I lift weights 4x/week and just started a new routine. Wound up pulling something when I was doing rows and now have significant pain in my upper back/neck area.  Hoping it is temporary.  But I was still able to get in some walks and a bike ride today. :-). Next weight lifting day is legs so hopefully this neck/back issue is cleared out before the upper body workout on Sunday. If not, I'll work around it.

In any event, weight loss is a lot more about how much you eat than how much you exercise. The main reason for exercise is to improve your quality of life.  Irrespective of weight loss, it is good for reducing the effect of diabetes, cancer, heart disease and just about any disease/sickness you could name, and it just makes moving around it the world more more fun and interesting.  Try to work in a few steps whenever you can!

Oh, and well done on your latest weigh in!
