    My calves are a shade under 16" for the first time in years. Also, I just found a 70% discount plus free shipping sale on wide calf boots that ends this weekend, at a shop I love but can't usually justify the prices of. Serendipity!

    Where? I can never find affordable boots to fit over my calves! :'(

    http://www.tedandmuffy.com/sale/womens-boots/ - the sale is on until Feb 25th :)

    My wife bought me a new bike the other day. I rode for 6 miles yesterday. I'm happy to say I didn't have to get off and push. Two things I learned real quick. Head-winds suck and I need some butt padding. My butt still hurts. Of course it's been 25 years since I've rode a bicycle.

    My Dad is a serious biker and he buys and uses the underwear with padding in the butt.

    Last night I tried a pair of shorts I couldn't wear at all last summer. I got them on and didn't have to hop up and down, or twist, or anything. I wasn't even winded when I got them on! It's been a long time since really cute clothes just buttoned and zipped without sweat and tears.

    YES! Definitely buy padded shorts and not a padded seat. They're ... weird, I can't explain it, but the gel ones in particular fell much more comfortable to the hand (while you're squishing them in the store) than they do to the butt during an actual ride.

    Thanks for the info y'all. That's what I was going to do. I will buy the padded shorts instead.

    I've had several NSVs building up in the past several weeks but here are my favourites! :)
    -My coworkers tell me I'm "disappearing" and I get smaller every time they see me. Lots of comments at work, actually. One told me to get a new work uniform because I could "fit an extra person in there"! (I did and these fit better, haha). Those comments are the most gratifying because I never told them I was trying to lose this weight.
    -I am getting acquainted with my hips and RIBS (I've never felt them before)
    -My 8 yr old brother said that my working out is working and I'm getting "skinnier". He helps me work out and is the best cheerleader I have!
    -This morning I wanted to read my novel but I wanted to do it while working out because I couldn't sit still! Can't do that I'm afraid... but I have all this extra energy, lazing around doesn't have the same appeal that it used to.

    And I'm only halfway!

    Walking is so much more fun with a dog. Watch out, though, he'll start expecting those walks. Every time my dog sees me putting my coat on, she gets excited and runs to the door, hoping for a walk.

    Purged my 'summer' shirts that are too big now for donation and bought three (smaller!) wicking fabric T-shirts to wear hiking when the sun finally starts to shine.
    My daughter and I also had some fun trying on dresses and I realized I might fit into some of hers this summer - WOAH!

    Completed my first 15km run race today. Slow time of 1:37:30 but glad I did it.
    Also have a 10km run next week, my third.
    And my weekly parkrun (5km) which I love!

    I would suggest that is a personal preference. I ripped the padding out of my bike shorts once I got the padded seat. The padding in the shorts always left marks and irritation for me. So I prefer the latter, but then again some people think I am a little weird so it would fit :-)

    Some months ago I added three new holes to my belt because it was to big.
    Today I am on the last of those new holes and will have to add more before long.
