    Weigh-in week of March 17

    How is everyone doing?
    I am back to 139lbs, maybe it will stay below now and keep creeping down I hope
    Had a pretty good exercise week I think
    monday rowed 10,000m
    tuesday ran 8km
    wednes rowed 10,000km
    thursday speedwork, 3x 1 mile repeats
    Saturday 1 hr run

    Is today Kelownagirl's wedding? I hope everyone is finding ways to meet their goals- this week I just tried to watch what I was eating, fewer empty calories and drinking more water/herbal tea- my latest favorite is rooboos red

    Keep up the excellent work.

    I measure myself tomorrow, so I will know more about my progress then.

    Tomorrow is KG's wedding.

    I'm up 1lb, but I'm OK with it. It was a week of SOME undisciplined eating, and limited opportunity for exercise. With a week like that, if I only gain a pound, I'm doing something else right....

    Here's what's tripping me up.

    I want to ride my bike instead of walk on the treadmill. Riding my bike is weather dependent. It's chilly in the mornings right now, but lovely in the afternoons. If I don't do my exercise in the mornings, then by the end of the day I've got busy doing other things and forget to ride.

    I only rode twice this week, but they were good hard rides. I forgot to lift weights, on Friday.

    The time change is messing with me, too...it's still dark at SEVEN am. :P

    This week I'm traveling, and taking my bike with me. But it's supposed to rain...I'm sure I'll find a way to ride at least once, but the treadmill in the hotel will be available all the time. So that's the plan. Every morning, either a walk or a ride. Of course, I'll be eating out a lot, so that will be a challenge.

    Wish me luck!

    Wahoo - dropped 3 pounds and I'm back down to 150. I drank WAY too much this weekend (company party and out the night before) which I rarely do so those empty calories won't be logged this week. Total loss this year is 5 pounds and 7.5 inches.

    I did my first brick this weekend doing a mock duathlon (5K run, 20 mile bike, 1 mile run), and even though I don't have the shin splints under control, I know I can complete the duathlon. Now I have 7 weeks to shave 10 minutes off my total time

    And you heard it here folks. Come hell or high water, I WILL go below the 150 barrier this week if it kills me (man, I really hope it doesn't kill me...)

    The wedding is today! (So what am I doing online? )

    I weighed in at 121.5 this morning but I've been around 120.5 for the past 3-4 days so that's what I'm going with. Who knows what I'll be this time next week after a few days of undisciplined eating.

    Have a good week everyone - I know I will!
