Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

OK. I think I get what the challenge is about. Count me in. I know I'm late joining, but between working out more on the one hand and parties/travel/restaurants on the other hand, I've been stable at 84 kilos (about 185 lbs) since May 1. Now I need to get back at it: eat less, eat right, bike more. I want to lose 4 of those kilos by June 20, then 5 more through the summer.

Hello, everyone . . . although I dropped out of this challenge, I still read the postings every day and sure do admire all of you. I haven't taken the time to exercise, which is a bummer, I know, but I'll get back to some kind of normalcy soon.

I weighed in Friday morning to see 137.5 (higher than my starting weight), and I about passed out. Free food at work all week plus the stress of a chemistry final Thursday evening plus the ol' pre-cycle bloat, well, ok. But I was still mad.
Saturday morning it was 133.5. So in the space of two days, I went up 1.5lb and down 4lb.
Stupid fickle body water retention. Put me down for the 133.5 and we'll see what happens from there.

I didn't weigh in this week. We were camping for a week and a half (camper camping, not backpacking). If we had been backpacking, I would gladly weigh-in. As it was, we sat around the camper most afternoons and grazed while DD napped.
Back on track this week! On a positive note, I got a PR at a 10k race this weekend! That was exciting

Ugh. Friday morning I was at 164, so I guess that is my official weigh-in for this week, although this morning the scale was up to 166. Drat!!! Sure I had barbecue and beer this weekend, but I also did an hour long kickboxing class and 30 minutes of strength training on Saturday, a 3 mile hike on Sunday, and a 30 mile ride on Monday. What gives? Maybe the extra 2 pounds will magically disappear before this Friday . . . .
