Somehow over the weekend, I added just under a pound of weight - up to 164.4 today. It'll shift; it always does. Of more interest are a couple of other things. First, on Saturday, from about 10:30 to noon, I sat outside protected from sunburn only by coconut oil. The sky varied from clouds to sun, but clouds don't prevent sunburn; they just make you oblivious to the process. The verdict? The stuff works. I got a mild tan on my legs - parts of them have not got any sun during my sitting-out-at-lunch sessions. My arms darkened a bit, and my nose is a bit pink-brown - but not painful at all. Don't know what's in it, but I'm a believer.
Second, I woke up at 2 am today just aching from head to toe. Staggered out of bed for some advil, which I found by touch. I really don't know what it might be, but I'm still feeling stiff and tired and sore now. I didn't sit around a lot yesterday - I had that "too many calories" fidgetiness, so I cooked and tidied and did laundry all day with occasional stints of reading. I know I'm out of shape, despite the fact that I'm starting to see actual muscle definition in my upper arms, but that badly? Hard to say. I skipped vitamins yesterday morning, so maybe it was a salmon oil deficiency. (Another clue that I wouldn't be seeing weight loss today - no potassium supplements yesterday and no leg cramps last night.)
