Weight Loss Challenge: Week One

August 23, 2026 · 5 min read · Health & fitness

This week I did pretty well as far as the weight loss. I'm down about 10lbs, accounting for water weight. That sounds like a lot, but I also think some of it is delayed results from last week as well.

Diet

In any case, I mostly stuck to my diet this week. I did go over 2 days (stress eating). But towards the end of the week I got some meditation in and I did 2 fasts(24h & 28h). I always find fasting help to reset my eating habits. I should do that more (sensing a pattern this week haha).

Excercise

I did well as far as working out! I worked out all but 1 day where I just couldn't do it and slept all day. Other than that though, I did my 2 mile walk 4 times (one of which it was 111 degrees and I'm pretty sure I suffered heat exhaustion). I also did the bike maybe 8 times (couple of two-a-days). According to my tracker I burned an average of 357 calories per day from active excercise. I was aiming for 350 so, Go Me!

Check-in

I've been off of social media and self isolating this week, so I haven't checked in with how everybody else is doing. I'll check in today or tomorrow. I'm still feeling quite antisocial. I did talk to my dad though, so its not complete isolation lol

Peace.
