I love your HRV consistency, I did it like for a week and gave up. Good work!

Just the way I am, totally obsessive about everything I do as you can probably tell from my log, working out in exact percentages of max loads lifted or max for 5 reps etc, counting calories every day and eating to certain multiples of body weight depending on goals, the HRV thing - all of this keeps me motivated but also drives the missus mad!!

Weekly weigh in - Friday 15 April 2016

182.2lbs / 82.64kgs - up 2.5lbs / 1.13kgs

Did not record food intake from last Friday through to Sunday night but at a guess it would have been 5 - 6000 kcals per day possible more (loosely recorded Friday at 5700) with sh1t loads of chocolate, beer and red wine - Monday was a low calorie intake day due to travel etc (1648) with Tuesday through to Thursday at ~2400, have increased walking up to 4 miles per day and once weight is back down to 180 lbs will reduce this back to 2 miles a day. Over the weekend I put on in excess of 8 lbs but not quite sure exactly how much as on weighing myself on Tuesday I was 8 lbs heavier than Friday and only consumed 1648 kcals on Monday so at a guess based on the amount of weight I have been dropping daily since Tuesday (2.4, 1.6, 1.4 lbs) I was probably 9.5 to 10 lbs heavier after the weekend.
