My end of April goal is 134 - losing 1/2 pound per week. I am signed up for a sprint Triathlon on 4/16 - a day after my 50th birthday!

Good for you klesko! I'll be 50 in April as well and will be planning a most excellent birthday ride (though it won't be on the exact day as my b-day falls on a Thurs. this year. Though if the weather is perfect, I may take a vacation day to play!

Late again. Sorry about that. I spent the beginning of the week fighting a sinus infection and the end of it playing catch up.

Anyway, I'm at 217 this morning. Not my "goal" for this challenge, but I'm pretty satisfied with dropping nine lbs over these past two crazy months.

Sorry, I'm late again too. 186# ----- wow since I started Sept 28th I've lost a total of 40#. My goal is to lose another 30#.

**Possegal** · 02-28-2011, 04:56 PM

Never any worries about timing - no such thing as late.

I'll post the thread for the next 2-month challenge tonight.

You had. You yet again were checking just as I was updating. Out of town for yet again another funeral, so I'm very behind on updating.

LOL - I had scrolled back and didn't find my post so figured I had just forgot

It's like we check in at exactly the same times every time.

It does, doesn't it

I will remember this in the future - I just thought I hadn't posted when I scrolled back & didn't see it

On a side note, I keep track of my rides and weight on MapMyRide - I do like that website. I was looking at my data from last August and noted that I am only 3.4 pounds heavier now than I was THEN. In August I rode over 500 miles on the actual bike (I do not count spinning miles during the riding season). Considering the kind of winter we had, and my quite protracted recovery period, well, I can't complain about my weight, can I?

Well my results on paper for February aren't too impressive but honestly with my tape measure and jeans, I'm happy. I've only lost 4 lbs but I have shrunk a half inch in my waist and an inch and a half in my hips. Of course my quads, at the lower part of my legs have bulked now my almost a full inch on each leg. Took my resting heart rate 3X because I had to make sure, and it was 42. Oh, and my abs have decided to come out of winter blubber hibernation.

Absolutely not Catrin, you are doing extremely well being out with an injury for as long as you have been. My very good friend who does roller derby she has been out now for about 7 months and she has had a REALLY hard time keeping her weight down. You are doing great.
