    Up a pound again! 160.5. But, I have been eating healthy, whole foods. My diet has improved greatly. I have a lot more energy than I've had in a long time. This week has been an intense training week for me so . . . I'm actually feeling pretty great about my health right now. It will be interesting to see what the scale says next week.

    LOL I hear ya. I have been eating healthier, but chocolate is my downfall.

    Can't explain the increase in a week from 132 to 135. I rode a century Saturday, flew to Chicago Sunday, might have eaten (overall) more calories but was still thoughtful about everything I ate; ran Tuesday and Wednesday (6 miles each) and walked walked walked. Could it be muscle build from the century?
    I can do five more miles.

    Off the scale for a while traveling. Came back and this morning was 109.5. This is way, way in the wrong direction. I have a problem. And this is with riding 400 miles this month.

    Stuck at 107.5 again. However, I have some hope for the coming weeks because it is TOM starting today, my yoga instructor is now back from her training in NYC, so I'll be starting back at yoga tomorrow (first time in 3 weeks), and we're finally getting some occasionally cooler weather, so I was able to run yesterday for the first time in > 2 months. Only 2.2 miles, but it's a start.

    Goldfinch, try not to fret too much...traveling is a killer. Even though we're very active when we travel, we do splurge a lot more than usual in the eating department with all the meals out. Just get back on the horse and hopefully we'll both move in the downward direction very soon!

    Catrin, it's not a small family restaurant, but a very good, higher end northern Italian place. We actually went to their other location for my graduation, last year, which is on the waterfront, but could not get a reservation there. I haven't been to the North End for about a year, so this is good. We decided to splurge for the valet parking, which pretty much takes the stress away. Also, going with our good cycling friends, and we will be discussing/planning our trip to France!!!!

    I won't. I guess it was a break from eating less than I want to eat. I'll go back to eating less again.

    Oddly, I road 457 miles in September on my bike, hauling the bike around and cramming the riding in with several trips. I think that the hunger from the workouts contributed to overeating.

    Never heard of it. I'll try to track the book down.

    EDIT: just bought it on Amazon. It should be interesting reading.
