It seems that over the weekend, the back pain I spoke about in a previous posting, has migtated to my groin area. I suspect that with the change in diet, there's been a slight blockage of the intestines creating a definite level of discomfort, particularly when I'm walking. At times, the pain can be quite sharp, and when it hits I can barely walk. As a result, I've gone from walking an hour or two a day to taking the bus whenever I can.
Pain is a great motivator. The colon hydrotherapy appointment I've been postponing is the first item on Monday's Things To Do list. Hopefully, that will be all that is necessary to clear things up.
Last week I ordered a couple of electronic devices. They just arrived on the weekend. More about those in next week's posting. Until then here are
the stats for this past week #18:
02/28/10 03/07/10 Change
Weight 126.5 lbs. 125.2 -1.3 lbs.
Weight 126.5 lbs. 125.2 -1.3 lbs.
A slight drop. Not sure why exactly. Been on the road a lot and maybe not eating as well or as often as I would at home.
Body Fat 15.7 lbs. 15.0 -0.7 lbs.
Virtually half of the loss is fat.
BMI 19.9 19.7 -0.2
A reflection of the weight.
Body Fat 11.4% 12.0 +0.6%
Given the loss is body fat above, this increase doesn't make sense. Let's see what happens next week.
Water 64.0% 64.3 +0.3%
Back in the upward groove.
Bone Mass 6.3% 6.3 No Change.
Last week's slight increase disappeared this week, which seems to suggest that I'm right on the cusp between the two. The slightest variation in the reading of the scale could have me going one way or the other. It suggests that my bone mass is holding steady.
