Weight Updates for July 18 and 28 2016

I just made an interesting observation over the last few weeks.  Here are my numbers from July 18th, which was a few days before my period:

weight: 206.0 lbs
fat percentage: 44.1%
hydration: 38.4%
muscle: 27.5%
bone: 10.8%
cal: 2323

And here they are from earlier today, which was right after my period:

weight: 209.8 lbs
fat percentage: 45.4%
hydration: 37.5%
muscle: 26.9%
bone: 10.7%
cal: 2344

I think I've been giving into cravings during my period.

I know my period is heavy, which makes me feel like crap.  I think because of that, if I feel like eating a bit of extra whatever, I've been giving into it.  I'm going to try recording what I eat during my next period and see what happens.

Over the last week or two I've been walking a lot.  So I really wasn't expecting this weight gain.  But at the same time, I've been having some trouble with keeping my glucose levels on target.  One night I went for a huge walk and never ended up low, which struck me as super odd.  So I think things are a bit off in general right now.  But I'm going to see my diabetes nurse in a few weeks.  So hopefully she'll be able to help me get this stuff back under control if I'm not able to deal with it myself!
