Raining here now so my chance at squeezing in a ride is slim. I have to go post 'yard sale' signs all over the place near my friends house. Three of us do a yard sale each year and then the money we raise goes to charity. Last year and this one, it will all go to my ride in August, which is good because my teammates will collect things for us to sell then we donate in each of their names. Win win for everyone. I was hoping I could ride before the signage, but not with this rain! Hopefully tomorrow after transporting all the things I've collected down to the location of the sale. Life keeps getting in my way of riding! :)

I'm not weighing until tomorrow, but I had to post today anyway. I'm pretty sure I'll see a gain, but it's for a good reason. I am FINALLY getting back into a real exercise routine. I'm achy and sore, so I feel good. BUT, this means that it'll be a couple of weeks before the scale starts to move again. In fact, it'll probably go up. Today, my jeans were extra tight even though I have been riding and eating well this week. That's just the way my body works.
I've been sloth-like for so long that getting back on the exercise bandwagon is going to cost me in the short term. That's ok as long as I'm mentally prepared (and it's why I'm posting now). I know that in about 4 to 5 weeks, I'll start reaping the rewards in terms of scale weight and clothing fit. In the meantime, I get to feel better both physically and mentally while I frantically search for stretchy things to wear to get me over this 'hump'!
136.2 again...
My century bike ride is in two week. I am finding it too hard to be in "Calorie Deficit Mode" while training for this event.
Therefore, for the next two weeks, I am planning to maintain my weight, not lose weight. So, 136.2 is good! :)
After the century ride, I will get back to being serious about losing these last few pounds.

141. No change.
SO, this means we're on for our Wednesday night bike ride next week, yes? :DQuote:

Yep, I'm up a bit, but not as much as I'd thought, which is cool.
172.4 for me this week.
Today I weighed in at 134! Yay!
I think all those kms on the bike are doing me some good!

I gained almost 3 lb in 1 night. Sleeping! Possible? Well, it has almost all stayed. It does feel like I have a pound or so extra on each breast due to that TOTM. Unbelievable! Put me in at 168. That's crazy! Hopefully it will go as quick as it came. :(
Hi. Been off-line for a week. End of May weight 152.9 :rolleyes: Been for a ride since then though. Ever hopeful for this Fridays weigh-in. ;)

Hi there ... (waves)
Any chance I can join in for the remaining few weeks? :)
After a couple of months of enforced lethargitude, I'm ready to get rolling again. Well, slowly, and with the stoopid back brace still my constant companion for perhaps another month. :p
I won't be road riding again until well after I get the brace off, but I'm doing short bits of time on the trainer.
And my physical therapist has me doing lots of exercises for my right arm and shoulder. Who knows, my arms might be stronger than before when all is said and done. Not that that's saying an awful lot. :rolleyes:
Anyhow, I've also been using the "I can eat this cuz I'm healing" excuse early and often, so naturally I've gained a few pounds in the interim. Eh, not as bad as it could have been, I suppose.
I took the plunge and joined Weight Watchers online (got a slightly reduced rate through my insurance so I figured why not).
Starting weight is back up to 160. grrr. Goal weight for the end of June is 155. Small steps, grasshopper. :cool:
You'll get back in the groove Jo.
