Thanks @HisDudeness. It’s comforting to know it happens to others, too.

My bulk to 170 slowly continues.  Increase was 0.4 lbs to 164.9 this week according to TrendWeight.  

I've had several daily weigh-ins over 165 now, and the daily variation that my scale shows even in the fat component of my weight reminds me that the moving average that TrendWeight produces is a much better estimate of my current body weight and composition than any single weigh in. 

Jan. 6, 2017:        202.3 lbs (starting weight)

I planned to lose 0.45 kg per week in average during my 4-week minicut. I actually gained 0.33 kg last week, so it looks like my "minicut" is turning into a maintenance phase <lol>.

Here are my numbers for the past week (including average step count and energy expenditure):

Week 0, ending 18-Dec-17: 60.2 kg (13.0%), 11.2k steps, 2523 cal.

Week 5, ending 22-Jan-18: 62.3 kg (14.4%), 10.3k steps, 2731 cal. -> +0.64 kg

Week 6, ending 29-Jan-18: 62.1 kg (15.0%), 11.4k steps, 2536 cal. -> -0.27 kg

Week 7, ending 5-Feb-18: 62.4 kg (15.4%), 13.1k steps, 2742 cal. -> +0.34 kg

Week 8, ending 12-Feb-18: 63.0 kg (15.5%), 13.9k steps, 2926 cal. -> +0.60 kg

Week 9, ending 19-Feb-18: 63.5 kg (15.8%), 11.7k steps, 2714 cal. -> +0.56 kg

Week 10, ending 26-Feb-18: 63.8 kg (16.0%), 14.5k steps, 3028 cal. -> +0.26 kg

Week 12, ending 12-Mar-18: 63.5 kg (16.4%), 12.4k steps, 2622 cal. -> -0.47 kg

Week 13, ending 19-Mar-18: 63.8 kg (16.2%), 14.2k steps, 2868 cal. -> +0.33 kg

My "minicut" is in red in the following table:

Week 20	07.May.18	64.20

If I end up gaining at the planned rate for massing when minicutting, maybe I should pretend I’ll minicut for the rest of the mass gaining phase.

Have had a flu bug that has hung on for 2 weeks. Starting to feel better. Fever gone the last few days so got in a few more steps over the weekend. Chest congestion, coughing and exhausted feeling not gone so will give it a few more days til I try a run. Had no appetite for most of 2 weeks but notice it is coming back so back on track with WFPB eating. Really just ate toast and drank te for 2 weeks. My body hangs on to my weight at this age! Lost a 1 lb and was not eating any more than 1000 at the most on any day. Oh well, now have to make sure I dont gain it back. Feeling like I can do at least 10,000 steps today and hope to be back up to 20,000 by end of week.

thinking my first GW should really be to just get under 160 which would give me a healthy BMI

Almost Spring. Have a great week.

Great job everybody on your goals.

-2 pounds for me this week (-14 total). 3 weeks to go until I take a break and go on maintenance. I am bit nervous about giving up my forward progress, but overall I think it will be good.

Checking in after a long time.

[SunsetRunner]

Hi everyone! Once again it's been way too long since I posted. Crazy work schedule 😕  Weight this morning was 144.2 which is up slightly. I had been pretty steady in the 142 - 143 range so I'm not thrilled to see this increase.  I've changed up some of my morning workout routines but have had to cut the time down to 30 minutes most days instead of the usual 45-60 minutes. Sigh   I just keep telling myself there's less than 4 weeks left and then I can hopefully get back on a better schedule. 😉  Have a good weekend! 

[Baltoscott]

Last Weigh In for March. 

Increase was 0.2 lbs to 165.1 this week according to TrendWeight.  

Looking at the fat percentage comparison chart below, I think my weight lifting may be having a small positive impact in terms of building muscle mass.  It is still hard to know for sure, though.

I intended to lose 0.45 kg per week / 1.8 kg total during my 4-week minicut. It has now ended and I’ve only lost a paltry 0.23 kg, so things didn’t go exactly as planned.

Here are my numbers for the past week (including average step count and energy expenditure):

Week 0, ending 18-Dec-17: 60.2 kg (13.0%), 11.2k steps, 2523 cal.

Week 1, ending 25-Dec-17: 60.5 kg (13.4%), 5.9k steps, 2390 cal. -> +0.23 kg

Week 6, ending 29-Jan-18: 62.1 kg (15.0%), 11.4k steps, 2536 cal. -> -0.27 kg

Week 7, ending 5-Feb-18: 62.4 kg (15.4%), 13.1k steps, 2742 cal. -> +0.34 kg

Week 8, ending 12-Feb-18: 63.0 kg (15.5%), 13.9k steps, 2926 cal. -> +0.60 kg

Week 9, ending 19-Feb-18: 63.5 kg (15.8%), 11.7k steps, 2714 cal. -> +0.56 kg

Week 18	23.Apr.18	63.70
Week 19	30.Apr.18	63.95	16.3
Week 20	07.May.18	64.20

I’ll now resume massing, six more weeks to go. If I’m able to gain at the original planned rate (0.25 kg per week), I should reach about 65 kg. That would still be historically low for me:

So I’m not overly worried about exceeding the weight ceiling I had set for this massing phase.

[RunningDown185]

Finally getting some energy back after the flu....has taken 3 weeks:( Got in 15000 steps yesterday so will try to do at least that many everyday this week then hope to feel totally back to full energy! Eating WFPB going well, haven’t ditched oil or cheese completely but cheese is no longer my go to fast snack....use it in light amount as a condiment.

Last Weigh In for March. 

Increase was 0.9 lbs to 166 this week according to TrendWeight.

According to my food log (and fitbit calculated energy deficit) I ate a bit less this week than the past couple of weeks, which is might seem strange since I gained nearly a pound as opposed to more typical half pound.  I may be undercounting some in this weight-gaining phase. We had a little more take-out this week which increases inaccuracy, and I noticed few times I didn't log until later in the day.  It is not a big deal since I'm in my planned 1/2 to 1 pound weekly planned gain.  Just a reminder that all this weight-loss or gain business is not as precise as the numbers on our trackers and diet logs might lead us to believe.

On travel next week and won't be able to do daily weigh-ins, so I won't do the typical post next Sunday. Instead of my TrendWeight numbers, I think I'll report the difference between actual scale numbers for 4.1.2018 (167.2lbs/19.3%) and 4.8.2018 (?/?)
