FatCyclist has started yet another weight loss challenge--this time with a forum like ours. Of course his forum isn't as cool as ours. For one thing, the majority of his readers are male. For another, he doesn't have our awesome moderators.

I won't be weighing in tomorrow as I am away from my scale. Just put me down for the same as last week and I'll pick it up again next week.

I've been pretty much holding the same pattern since I got to my goal, but when I came back from vacation, I decreased the amount of carbs back to where that was when I first started losing,because I had regained all of the weight. I lost it quickly.
Until I started doing longer rides and a running program. I am hungrier than normal on those days, so I have to just plain eat more. Trying not to eat a lot of Luna Bars. I was using those as snacks every day, at work and when riding, and I was kind of addicted.
One of my interim goals is to not have my glass of red wine so many nights a week. It's actually helped me lower my cholesterol, and one glass isn't exactly a substance problem, but it's extra calories I don't need every day.
I find fueling for exercise and maintaining my weight a little tricky, but I need to experiment more with different things to eat while riding.

finally starting to do something right, much due to all of the support on the forum! It's awesome to be able to hear how others are doing and share my own experiences. Now need to keep the focus on the goal.
