Day 1 of a planned 1 days of ‘no solid food’ fasting
[i]Blood sugar 92 mg/dL[/i]
Yesterday I 🏃🏾♂️ ran 3 miles in the morning, and 🚶🏾♂️ walked at lunch.
Still gained weight. I blame the 90 grams of protein (I'm only suppose to have 50 grams a day), plus the 40 carbs. I believe the carbs and 'excess protein' is (*still*!) being converted to glucose, and being pushed into my skeletal muscle cells as glycogen, along with the required water, resulting in 'water weight'. I know it can't be the 'calories in' because I only took in 1600 calories for the day... and I also ran 3 miles...
I hate fasting on the weekends, because the ‘mental break’ of eating carbs on the weekend is what has helped me stick to my program for nearly a year. However, we have a late night party planned tonight, and the [i]only[/i] way I can get through, without ending up ‘binging’ on food, is to ‘not eat’. So today I will ‘no solid food’ fast.
I also plan to 🏃🏾♂️ run today.
This 'should' drive down my glycogen levels and result in a 'water weight drop'. However, even when muscle cells expend the glycogen, the water weight can hang around for a day or so before it is 'expelled' from my body.
Tomorrow, I will have one day of ‘letting lose’ 😊 This 'has-to-happen" I need the 'mental release' :)
This will probably result in 'refilling' my glycogen stores and retaining and even adding additional 'water weight'.
End result, the scale will probably go up.
My normal 5 day 'no solid food fast' starts again on Monday...
😎 Life is Good! Have a great day everyone!

@chrisw77 - I think you mean this chart: https://bit.ly/2tVt8Ot - - Its been up and down. The average is 172 pounds. However, until recently I had a lot of 'intentional carb loading'. It is only very recently that I have stopped that and am now looking at how 'normal fluctuations' affect my water weight gain (and loss). I barely have a weeks worth of data for that, so too early to really 'chart it' :)

@chrisw77 - The only measurement that I track these days is my waist (this is a "Dr. Fung" thing that I agree with). That is down 2 inches. So, I give myself a 'little' (as in 'tiny amount') of 'credit' for gaining muscle mass (based on my deadlifts going from 100-230), that 172 pounds in October is a different body from 172 pounds today. Otherwise, for the most part, I 'maintained weight'. This would be fine, because everyone says I 'look skinny', but, I still want to see how I look at 15% body fat. This is my current goal.

@chrisw77 - I am 'recording scale weight' but my concentration is on my Omron meter that measures my body fat. However, no need doing a measurement unless the scale weight drops. I am waiting to hit 164lbs (my BMI weight) and then doing a measurement. I HOPE to be under 20% (I am at 22% now) - - That would be a HUGE win :)

Excellent progress on the deadlifts --- is the weight you give counting the bar? I started several weeks back (well using a hexbar), and I've only dared to do 110 (which is 155 counting the bar) for fear of my back. Also, do you do warm ups to help with activation of your glutes before you lift? I'm pretty certain my muscle activation sequence is wrong and am experimenting with warm ups to relearn.
