cheers,
i'm fine with not seeing a change from one day to the next, but routine is a big part of me sticking to my goals and seeing if my weight has gone down when i wake up is the carrot on the stick that motivates me best.
it's just frustrating to see it remain static for such a long time. but i'd have been even more annoyed had i waited a week to see how much i lost and saw no change as my expectations for how much i'd have lost cumulatively by then would be even greater than looking for any change at all daily.
i should add getting under 110kg is the number that gets me back to where I was in 2018 when I was out of shape but still doing very active things (jog/walking 50k ultras for e.g.) which is the culmination of "phase 1" of getting back into shape in my head. screeching to a halt 1kg from the big number i have been eyeing since start of march as my first major target is probably the most annoying place it could have happened hence the frustration.
I remain pragmatic about the overall process though so it's all good.
