waist measuring over navel: 80.2 cm If I'm not loosing belly fat, then this is possibly just a difference in bowel content and also probably some muscle loss involved. I probably lost some fat too but I don't believe it's just that, not by a long shot. :P. Anyway, I don't think it's possible to lose 600 g of belly fat in one day lol.
Anyway, I've been way to lazy to log food but, suffice to say, I haven't been feeling hungry (never). As soon as I'm hungry I eat something. And it hasn't necessarily been healthy stuff lately. But I've been exercising aerobically and I've also been distracted to the point where I simply forget to eat, that's also true. Yesterday I was going to start weight training but I skipped again... Let's try today! lol
I think it's impossible to start logging all the food in just one step. I think I'm going to start logging "some" of the food and, perhaps, I'll be able to increase the logging in steps...
By the way, yesterday I didn't exercise at all because I usually do aerobic exercise in the morning and I skipped it so I would weight train after lunch, so I was expecting the weight to go up today.

I am jealous of your weight loss. I MUST get back to business. I think I need to follow your lead and exercise more.

Thank you very much for your compliment Farfelu!! :)
Believe me, I already knew exercise was important but I never imagined it was this important. What surprises me more is that I've been doing very, very light indoor cycling while watching videos on Youtube for half an hour everyday. I read in an article that, when you're doing light efforts, you tap directly into your fat reserves whereas if you're exercising more intensely, you're also tapping into your glycogen reserves in your muscles. It may have something to do with this. But yes, very light exercise is definitely extremely effective! I can say this from experience now :) Just be careful with your knee. If you swim for example, you can use those leg floaters and just use your arms or just paddle the least you can because swimming with a full leg stroke can also be a bit stressing to your knees. Thanks! I'll try to keep my food and exercise logged as much as I can :)

This is where I read that thing about low intensity exercising tapping directly into your fat reserves:

The link didn't work here. I had to post it in a new journal entry. Anyway, don't worry because your weight will inevitably go down again. It just takes time :) But exercise is definitely the faster way!

Wow... Interesting. I will start this week with light biking. I absolutely must get going on this or I will be doomed to going back up, I just know it. Thanks for sharing such helpful info. Maggie :-)
