Thoughts on my weight
While I have been less physically active the past couple of months I have managed to maintain my weight at 147 to 150 pounds, most of the time. At special occasions like birthdays/holidays/conventions I tend to get a bit more lax in my habits, and my weight will go up to 152. I realize that is not a huge fluctuation, but going up to 152 makes me a little nervous.
This past week, for whatever reason was something different. On Friday morning I weighed myself at 145 pounds. That is the lowest number my weight has ever been in my adult life. My general reaction was "neat". Since then on Friday and Saturday I have experienced some of the strongest food cravings I have felt in over a year. I think I may have kicked my metabolism into "starvation mode" as well.
While I am happy with the 147-150 lb range, in the back of my mind I had thought I could lose more weight if I wanted. I have come to the conclusion that 145lbs. is not a weight I should consider, my body is not happy with it. Now I know.
