I hadn't ben focusing on food intake, exercise output or even what my actual weight was for almost a month and a half. It was a bit of of a pick me up when I did weight in a couple days ago and found myself 4lbs down from July. In my adult life I've never gained weight outside of pregnancy or lost weight unless actively trying- I tend to just naturally maintain with a pound or two no matter if I'm at the 174 I was after having my youngest or 125 I was between my boys pregnancies. So I hadn't expected to be down much if any. However I also haven't crunched the numbers for a while, so I did that a bit ago.
This weight puts me at burning about 1600 calories on a no exercise day, which in order to drop a pound a week puts me under that 1200 magic number. Not sure how I feel about that. I've always sort of raised an eyebrow at the validity of having this one magic number you aren't suppose to go under for women whether you are 5'10" or 5'0". I'm not planning to get back in the dieting sadle yet though, so I have some time to research a little more. Generally I'm able to exercise now so it only will be a serious concern during the periods I'm having lung issues. I am going to try and track food intake for a bit again just to see where I am, since I really haven't been paying any attention to it. Not going to be changing anything right now, just seeing where I am.
Not planning to start in earnest again til we have the property situation more stable, but I may start doing little tweaks over the next month. As soon as we legally retake possession it's gonna be some serious cleaning and fixing up, but I'm hoping everything is wrapped up and it's on the market by October.
