Week 5

So I have not really been motivated to post on here much, I mean I didn't really expect any views and this is mostly just for me to document my progress so going forwards when I am bound to gain weight again (or maybe not if this works as I hope) I know how to get back to where I want to be. 

This week was another good week, I lost about 2.5lbs and am back on course with where I was in 2015. As I have said before and as the graph below shows (at least at the time of publishing as it should live update), it was around this point in 2015 that the weight loss began to stall. Up to this point I had lost 85lbs, in the next 7 weeks I would lose another 10lbs (under 1.5lbs a week compared to 85lbs in 20 weeks). In the weeks that followed I had a net change of nothing in 9 weeks. Although it is not a race against 2015 I would like to get ahead of it because I am a competitive person. Now the thing is that I am not looking just to be lighter, mostly I am looking to be healthier. 



I am not 100% sure how to judge the healthier, having been keto and sometimes carnivore for 6 years and now with fasting I probably am healthier so I might try and take a look at fitness. In 2015 I ran a 5k (probably 3 miles but not sure) on the 31st May in 23:04. Now to me that seems slow, bearing in mind I have run low 19 minutes (though not sub 20 since 2016). I did run sub 21 last year but at the time was marathon training and running consistently and 10lbs lighter than I am now. Think I will do another post on some running goals for me. 

Still a bit more weight lost this week and runnong on my fasted days has felt good.
