Down another pound, this weeks weight 135. I've been on a consistent 1 lb per week loss for several weeks...I figure I'm headed for a plateau soon.
Hi,
I am on the vacation - my parents visited usa for the first time and I am taking them around west USA - Death Valey, Zion, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, Arches, Canyon Land... Tomorrow we are going for a rafting trip from Bluff, UT. So, I have no means to weight myself but please keep me in the chart. I will post my weight next week.
Btw, where is link for the chart?
Thank you,
Martina
Week 1: 186 (down 1)
Activity : 0 ( so depressing)
You got that right. I have never been that sick in my life. Tues and Wed I was seriously ready to head to a hospital!!! I will spare the gory details but I haven't thrown up that badly I think ever. Scary.
So if I took my weight earlier in the week, wow that would of been like..5 lbs off...but instead I'm holding at 1 lb which I figured.
I had wanted to ride a little but I just figured come back strong in Week 2. I went to pick up my commuter bike from the bike shop and I could barely get it racked on my Jeep this past Friday. That and I was sweating like crazy. The guys at the LBS said I looked horrible. Thanks.
You guys doing the SB have inspired me to look at it again. I transitioned from ex cookie junkie to clean eater through help from SB and Sugar Busters. I liked SB especially the ricotta cheese n choc chip 'dessert'. I think it's a great way to eat, except their packaged food is really bad sodium and preservative wise, which I found disappointing. Their packaged pizza is off the charts sodium wise and even TASTES salty!!! But the incorporation of the GI to help you choose foods is so great, it makes it easy to be successful. I think that is the book that taught me to use carbs like rice as a 'condiment' rather than a huge helping of it and load up on veggies instead.
Wow, Dirt Girl, sorry about being sick, but glad you've bounced back. Take it easy getting back to your routine .. eat healthy!Quote:

Maybe that is aprt of the problem, eating healthy. Seems that there is always some salmonella or e coli on your produce. You never hear about M&Ms having salmonella (kidding!). I finally feel halfway on the road to recovery, still feeling a little quesy.Quote:

You're right, M&M's never seem to have these issues!!! Nor do Twinkies, Ho-Ho's and other things loaded with perservatives. :D hmmmm... are we on to something ? lol j/k
Still, glad to hear you are doing better!
It's on my scale -- a Tanita. Yours sounds much fancier!Quote:
t's great to see someone post the BF%. I just got a new scale and it shows BF%, bone mass, hydration and BMI. I've heard scales don't do an accurate BF% but it'll be nice to look for a downward trend. It shows me at 32.8%. Do you have a scale that measures or did you have it done somewhere?
I know it's not completely accurate, but I just watch the trend... downward = good, upward = uh-oh! :p
DDH: Hang in there -- you have so much going on. I just hope all is coming out ok for you, and that you can get back to focusing on taking care of yourself instead of worrying. Eat for health... the rest will follow that.
Ugh..... somehow *gained* a pound... I don't know how in the world - I are the same as I usually eat - and if anything I ate a little better - and I got more exercise than I've had in years... Well, I guess that means double down this week.... A little discouraging to be sure, but I'll just go for longer rides and watch what I eat a bit more.
Oops...I forgot to weigh in...so did it this morning. 148 lbs for me. At one point last week I was down to 146.5. My weight has been fluctuating between that and 149.5. As long as I don't hit 150! That would really upset me.
ok, i'm up again. i've got to get back on the horse, so to speak. 177.8 for me. i was a little sick yesterday so no riding, but i'm planning to get out again today. maybe even a long walk if the weather cooperates with me.
Down one to 229. I must have been building muscle when my weight popped back up - because clothes feel looser.

Hi, I am down to 193.8. Not much of a loss, but I will take it.
Sorry I'm so late, i had a really busy weekend.
I went on a low carb diet 4 years ago and lost 35 pounds, which turned out to be too much for me., I'm fairly tall and small boned, but muscular. Then I discovered biking and that I needed those carbs. I've gained back a lot of the weight, which I don't particularly regret, except for about 10 pounds. I am a lot more muscular that I was, and can ride a lot farther more comfortably. But, I am committing to losing the 10 again. I'm a 164 now, and I think I could lose the 10 by modifying my diet a little. Less fat and less microbrew. Darn. Stuff's expensive anyway.
Hey, CA, way to go! Weight is just a number, it's the clothes that tell the real tale! :D As long as they keep loosening up ... life is good!Quote:
