Still making babysteps in the right direction. Down to 202.0 this week, despite two birthday parties and very little riding. Should be back on track this week with the riding if only I can get the tyres sorted.
Weigh in WK 5 - 182.6
So close to the 70's... I will be there by the end of the challenge!
Going for a 40 mile ride on Saturday. I love getting stronger.
143.5... which means I still haven't budged since this began. A bit frustrating, but I'm kicking it up a notch, and I'll be happy if I can break 140 by the end of the month! We're forecast for highs in the mid 70s for the next 10 days, perfect riding weather- that should help!
Somewhere behind the athlete you've become and the hours of practice and the coaches who have pushed you...is a little girl who fell in love and never looked back... do it for her.
184.6 lbs
Up a tad, but still on the right track.
I'm down to 181.2! The scale is finally moving in the right direction.
Biking - 75.23 miles
Horseback riding - 1.5 hours
Sweating like a pig while working out/playing on the Wii Fit - 5 hours
Someone posted awhile back that the Wii Fit was fun but wasn't a lot of exercise, but I beg to differ. You can get one heck of a workout on it. It depends on what you put into it though. And you can add hand weights to take it up a notch.

A bicycle does get you there and more.... And there is always the thin edge of danger to keep you alert and comfortably apprehensive. Dogs become dogs again and snap at your raincoat; potholes become personal. And getting there is all the fun. ~Bill Emerson, "On Bicycling," Saturday Evening Post, 29 July 1967
I am down another -0.4 to 178.2, I’m glad I’m moving in the right direction 2 weeks in a row even without exercising. I pulled my hamstring muscle a week and a half ago and its taking a while to heal. I’ve decided to sit on my butt and wait it out rather than trying to exercise through the pain (I’ve reinjured this hamstring several times over the years). Hopefully I will show bigger losses once I can get back on the bike.
172.4. Up 1 poundI'm ready to give up.
I think I neglected to post last week...no matter...I am still hanging at 148 ish. Today 148.2.
Going on vacation next week. I will be cycling but that means nothing when it comes to vacation
I'll be back by next weekend so will report next Sat/Sun.
188 this week for me
71.3 miles. Finally, back to 'normal'!
I only eat what I can bike home with me. That seems to work...
I've been out of town all weekend on a bike trip, but I did weigh myself Friday - 131, down 1/2 pound.
Even though I rode 103 miles over the three days, I also did a lot of eating, thanks to wonderful rest stops and nice dinners, so it'll be interesting to see what my next weigh-in is.
