81.4

The weighing scale read 81.4 Kg on Saturday, 10 Aug. Last time I weighed this much was on 26th February, more than five months ago.

As recently as a month ago, on 5th July, I weighed just 78 Kg. I gained 3.4 kilos in a month!

That 81.4 isn’t a single spike. My average weight last week was 80.3 Kg. A month ago it was 78.3 Kg. Even the weekly average increased by 2 kilos​ :(

Based on BMI (25.4), that makes me officially overweight.

This used to be my go-to lunch back in SJW days – BLT, plain salted crisps, and a can of Coke.

I haven’t bought it in, at least, the last 6 years.

I didn’t feel like driving into town for lunch today, didn’t like the options at H+H, and didn’t feel like eating the food at home. So, took a chance on this old favourite.

Turns out I still like a BLT. I didn’t particularly like the fried chips – I’ve only had the baked variety last few years. And, I consume an unhealthy volume of Coke Zero already, so this was just a drop in the pond.

I enjoyed the change.

I did replace a Coke zero for the regular Coke.

Bloopers reel – today’s entry

Missed my morning coffee, and the heat was getting to me, so I kept a Coke Zero in the freezer. At 10:30 AM.

Life caught up. Got busy with gardening, with managing the heat for both of us, then picking up Raghs from the station, out for lunch, cleaning up, resting, evening walk, and more… stuff.

20:45. Remembered that I had left that Coke Zero in the freezer. Of course, it was a bit too late.


The upside: Freezer got a long overdue deep clean.
