No Exercise And Losing Weight
That is what has been happening; I have not been exercising and have continued to lose weight. Not sure I can explain what is going on, but as of today I am 178.2 pounds per the digital scale that currently resides on our bathroom floor.
The no-exercise routine is not by choice. About a week ago, I started to pick up the flu my wife had. I had a cough and was starting to spike a temperature. I went to the doctor within the first twenty hour hours and received a prescription that helped a lot. Also last week, we moved. Moving from one house to another doesn’t leave much time for anything else. To top it off, I strained a muscle on the left hand side of my back - I was pretty much worthless for moving this past weekend. Talk about bad timing.
But still, I have lost weight and have not been exercising religiously as I was previously doing. I can speculate that the change in my routine is what did it. But one other thing to consider is that I seemed to have leveled out on my weight loss effort. I really wasn’t losing any weight this month until just recently; maybe my body was adjusted to the current weight. Since I have continued with the good habits I have established using 30 day goals - like no candy bars, no eating after dinner, exercise every day (haven’t followed this very well recently), 64 ounces of water; maybe by body just continued on with where it was already going. As you can plainly see, I don’t know why I am still losing weight, but I’ll take it.
All of this talk reminds me that I need to think of another thirty day goal for the month of March.

My sisters and I have often joked about the power of the flu when it comes to weight loss. No fun, but if it impacted your eating habits that could be a part of it.
Hope you’re up for your usual fitness routine soon.

Losing weight via sickness is not the preferred way to go for me … but I’ll take the weight loss.
Ran for the first time in awhile just last night. Thank you for the encouragement.
