January/February weight loss thread

Holy cow...were you really? Wait - where were you sitting? I don't remember looking around much when we were in there. I was actually anxious to leave because I was worried about our pregnant goat. That's so funny though! (I too, love that place!)

A ride and lunch would be awesome!!

I was sitting 3rd seat from the hallway that leads towards the restrooms. We were sort of hidden from most of the room - right in from of the sushi chef on the far left of the room.

After my last post, I decided that sushi twice in one week was just the thing I needed, so Jeff and I went again tonight! Just got home. I don't usually eat out much, but I was having a craving (yes, it's THAT time...). I figure there are far worse things I could be craving than sushi, which, as it turns out, is actually relatively low in WW points. 2 pieces of nigiri sushi are just 1 point!

A pregnant goat... Huh. Hope THAT all turned out alright!! I actually know a goat farmer in Grand Ronde. She makes the BEST goat milk mac and cheese.

I'm going to ride Saturday, rain or shine. This time of year I don't get started until 10am or so, since it's too cold earlier. Probably do 35-40 miles. Wanna come? Might be 2-3 other gals along. Moderately paced. Even if we get a little spaced out, we ALWAYS group up again quickly.

Why am I hearing "It's a small world"? Dang you GLC and Susan!!

Susan- You look smoking hot. Great job.

I noticed last night the scale is stubbornly staying place but my thighs appear to be firming up thanks to a few weeks of running. So I will just keep plugging on. I must stop eating these kettle roasted ranch peanuts.

Um...do you happen to remember the couple SITTING TO YOUR LEFT? Yeah...that was us.

I mentioned to my husband that you were there with a girlfriend and he immediately said "were they the ones right next to us?". We were waiting for our check as you guys were just getting there, but we remembered you two because the person right next to my husband ordered the coolest looking roe sushi thing....

And I snickered to myself because you guys both picked up the unagi nigiri that I had asked the sushi chef to make for me just 10 minutes before you got there!

I would love to ride on Saturday, but I really don't know that I can handle 35-40 miles right now. 20 is wiping me out (I'm SO out of shape). That and I'm sick today - so I don't know what condition I'll be in by Saturday. My goal is to get back up to speed (distance) asap...so keep me in mind. I have met NO other riders since we moved here because we've been so focused on the 'farm'...so I would LOVE to be able to ride with a few people.

Actually I DO remember your husband - he was immediately to my left. Short sandy brown hair? I think you'd gotten up as we were sitting down, because I don't remember seeing who he was with (?).

I love unagi nigiri, so thanks for ordering it! And the salmon roe is ikura. I love love love that, but they never have it on the track. You have to ask for it special.

I haven't made any definite plans with anyone else yet for Saturday, so if you want we can do an easy 20 together. I know all the roads out this way really well, and can string something together without any real climbing involved. It's gonna rain anyway, so we could do an easy 20 and use it as an excuse to go eat sushi.... If you're feeling up to it, PM me later in the week and we can organize it.
