last week: 150
this week: 146
next week: I'm going to find a pair of jeans and start posting my size. I say that because you are thinking, yay you are down 4 pounds! and the reality is I spend the last TWO weeks not exercising and eating crap so I refuse to be happy about the number on the scale.
(I actually am happy about the number but I tell you there has to be a better way and I think pant size is it.)
ETA I am a variety of sizes but I'm going to say I am a size 10 (petite) in pants as the 8s mostly can be zipped up but show panty-lines and give me a certain level of either discomfort or ugly bulging.
I no long have a goal weight, my real goal is to keep the same clothes for years and years instead of constantly needing different sizes!
as a pre-op I remember living in 2X but they were getting uncomfortable and my lowest weight was a size 4. I suspect long-term I will be either an 8 or a 10 and I am totally happy with that. especially if I improve my posture.

It’s still a good number but you are right, clothing size is also a great indicator.

Sideways is better than up. Maybe change up some things?

As long as yo-yoing is normal, it’s not an issue.
Have you figured out your vitamin issue with your new lifestyle?

The yoyo-ing is normal with my cycle. It'll drop back down a few kgs once I'm away from frappucinos and working from Starbucks Think last time I went diving I lost a couple of kg in 10 days. There's no shops on the island that are accessible - just a tiny counter at the dive club with beer, nuts and gross flavours of chips.
Not yet, because it hasn't begun. A three-month notice period is hell. Two more weeks of 'work' to go in Singapore, then I'll be off back to Australia for 1.5 weeks to settle my cat in with my parents after his quarantine. Back here for 1.5 weeks to pack things up. Then 2.5 weeks diving, then a one-way ticket to Berlin.
My plan is to take bottles with me and just get a doctor's note. The one that's hardest to source is my Vitamin D and my one prescription. Anything else I can buy at a pharmacist (multivitamin, iron, calcium though not my preferred kind) in a pinch, and if I'm in a place long enough I can get iHerb to deliver.
My big triumph this week is (fingers crossed) signing up for Project Fi with Google, which should give me global data roaming for pretty cheap. Had to find a collaborator in the US to accept the package and activate it for me, but looking good so far!

Shingles sound so miserable, I’m sorry you’ve had to deal with the pain they cause! Hooray for feeling better.
