Lise- The avatar is a pic of my golden (when he was a puppy) and my (rather large) orange tabby cat. It was one of the few moments my dog sat still the entire first year of this life?!
Running Mommy- You are right - it just took me a long time to realize itMaybe the weight loss will follow, who knows.
I gave up on dieticians - the last one I went to looked at my food logs and told me there was nothing I could do better. Hmmm...don't know if that's good or bad, but certainly didn't help me make changesHopefully you'll have better luck!
I'm probably going looking for a new doc too - I've had a really hard time finding a GP (have a *great* obgyn) - at my appointment, he asked if I'd ever successfully lost weight. I mentioned an ill fated run on Atkins which did work, but made me feel really yucky and didn't allow for biking (no carbs doesn't work so well on a long ride). He said I should go back on it and limit the biking to what I felt like on the diet. Ummm....NO!!!

Hahahahaha! I was all like "come on, Lise, can't you see that's her dog" but, um, I'd never noticed the cat was in there too. Heh. Originally Posted by CA_in_NC

OK. Look at the puppy's head. Doesn't it look like there's a mirror image of his head to his right? To me, this looked like ET's face, for the longest time. I thought, I doubt her avatar is really ET. I didn't want to ask. I mean, what if it was ET? Then, one day, I saw "dog" for a few seconds. Saw the face. Saw the tail. Never saw the cat. Now I do!

Hey, yeah! It does kinda look like there's another eye there.

CA in NC- I am right there with ya! 5'4'' 205. Yuck. But I still ride. I am looking to do a centruy in July. I have a VERY hilly 51 mile ride in May and a weeklong tour of MI in June (my first tour). No day will be longer than 60 miles).
Keep pedaling..stronger is better than thinner any day! I actually had a guy say to his skinny girl friends "the one thing I hate about summer is fat chicks...(then looking at me in bike shorts and a loose tee, she says)..."put some clothes on"! He was pretty overweight himself. I just kept riding and though, "I could get off this bike, crush you and then keep riding. He is lucky I had my chi on straight that day!!!!!!!"
Sorry for the sort of high jack. I jsut want you ladies all to be proud that you are out there riding!!!
