I can not believe I ran across this thread today.

I weighed myself Saturday before I rode and after I got back home. I rode 52 miles in the humid Okalhoma heat. I was down 2 pounds after the ride. Then on Sunday morning I weighed myself and I was a pound heavier than I was on Saturday morning before all that work. Then this morning I was up another whole pound. The scale this morning said a number I haven't seen in quite a while I have been pretty down about it today.

On a side note......52 miles was a new record for me. The longest I've ridden before that was 47 and that is not something I do on a regular basis. I usually do 25-32 mile rides 2-3 times a week.

I did go eat chips and salsa Saturday night but not enough to warrant this. Ugh!

So today for lunch I had a salad that was mostly greens and a little fruit on the side. I'm going to watch the sodium for the next couple of days and those pounds had better come back off.

It is just really frustrating to go and burn 2,500 calories only to find out that I gained weight over the weekend.
