  • Ugh, I am starting to get hungry. Today is a zero calorie day. I don't get to eat until like 10am tomorrow. So here I am planning what I am going to eat. I am thinking Cinnabon. I haven't had one of those in a few years. Wednesday I am going to do a 20 mile excursion. I am going to go to my favorite place, Colorado Trail.…
  • yes, yes, yes, Exercise, climbed for 2,000. Seen 3 of my old guy buddies on the road and talked. So my pace was meander.
  • @debodom1962, Roughing it? not exactly because we do have air mattresses. (roughing it is sleeping on a yoga mat.) But yeah, we got the tent thing going on. Sometimes I put up my tent next to a Winnebego and those guys are all like, "well, there goes the neighborhood." Sometimes I put up my tent on a trail where a bear has…
  • Happy birthday @phoebelayla Happy birthday @fightingthetideofaging I missed a few days due to camping. My wife and I promised ourselves and each other that this was going to be a dietarily well behaved excursion. Well, so much for the best laid plans. Is it best laid or best made? Anyway, what can I say about budget when I…
  • I kind of track the ingredients. I have the same breakfast mostly everyday. My oatmeal is measured, 1/3 of a cup, raisins, 1/3 cup, yogurt, 1 cup. I guess I don't really cook instinctively that much. Bean pizza, I read the label and try to approximate a serving size. The flatbreads have labeled calories, shedded cheese, I…
  • Kitchen is closed ... yes, yes, yes. (Bean pizza is kind of like a tostada only on a flatbread or Greek style pita.)
  • Heh! I like it when this group gets kinda verbose. Hey, you guys got that from me. I like @scubachick67 showing us what her soggy world looks like. I like the philosophical underpinnings from @craigo3154. But here is me remembering how long I been at this. It has been a long time. I forgot how long. My one weakness is…
  • Restaurant - that is the first time in the history of me that I have ever spelled that right on first attempt. But my hat is off to you. I know seeing and smelling all of that food would challenge me But here is my report of yes, yes, yes
  • Too early for me to be checking in. I went for some exercise though. I wasn't too ambitious. I was like at least ten minutes off of all of my ambitious times. I seen some wild horses. They call them wild but what they really are is feral. They been feral for like 400 years. I think some Spanish guy lost them and they were…
  • yes, yes, yes Chugging my fiber for desert. That fills me up and closes the kitchen. Not too hard of exercise today. Little over a mile of walking but hey that counts. Maybe I will get crazy tomorrow. I like them pics from @SimonsChange. Makes me want to put a picture up. My wife has agreed to camping on Tuesday. That'll…
  • yes, yes, yes Exercise was climbing for like 1:38:57. Yeah listen to me clocking my segments out to seconds. But yeah that was a PR. Total ride I think 2:25. At the top I run into some kids, 20 somethings would be my age guess. They were looking for some single track downhill and want me to steer them to some. They parked…
  • I always see this on other MFP groups, this discussion of what music is everbody listening to for their working out. So here is something, a 90 minute playlist that I use for climbing. Funny thing about a playlist is that I put these ipods in my ears and the music becomes kind of a timing reference for where I should be on…
  • yes, yes, yes Kitchen is closed. I might have a tomato and an orange for dessert but still in budget. Minimal exercise today but I still count it as a yes. I had 3 days on for my knee. Total rest for it today. I think tomorrow will be good for climbing. Maybe not full on but something good. I might climb up to that single…
  • Heh, yeah, I can row a thousand meters. I think I did yesterday but they make us go back and forth to other exercises so I got no idea of the time I spend on it. I will see if I can get my time on that. But in the meantime I am impressed.
  • Congrats... I think you got the equation balanced.
  • yes, yes, yes Closing the kitchen early. Got surplus even after the desert which I am going to get. I am going to reduce my estimation of exercise calories as per @craigo3154 . Exercise, kind of fun. My knee was stinging a bit so I went a couple of hours at mostly meander pace. That ain't hard or even moderate cardio. I…
  • I keep thinking about that doctor that got me to making changes all those years ago. He was a former Air Force doc so he was a guy that could make or break military careers. He fully expected that if he told you what to do you would do it. So he was telling me to lose weight or find a different doctor. Well what happened…
  • yes, yes, yes I got some good and fun exercise. I love that. I keep thinking about that doctor that got me to making changes all those years ago. He was a former Air Force doc so he was a guy that could make or break military careers. He fully expected that if he told you what to do you would do it. So he was telling me to…
  • Happy birthday @dosse1320 Congratulations to you @aeshippers on your 8k PB. It is way too early for me to be talking about closing the kitchen. But I just got out of the shower and did the weigh in so I got to ruminating philosophically. I got two scales one of them is an analog spring scale. I like that one. the other one…
  • yes, yes, yes I guess it is not too early to declare the kitchen closed. Rode my bike to and from the Orange Theory studio. Got a PR on the inbound leg. Seems kind of silly as it is only 3.8 miles but as it is short and flat I really like cranking on it. It is dirt and I like the sound of my tires crunching on the crusty…
  • track yes budget yes exercise minimal but yes. Chugging fiber drink. Closing the kitchen. Remembering a conversation I had with an acquaintance or colleague or the like on the last day of school. We were talking about mountains or the mountains we had in common. In Colorado they got mountains they call fourteeners. They…
  • tracking yes budget yes exercise yes - Closed the kitchen with my fiber chug ritual. I don't really get hungry after that. That stuff is called Equate Daily Fiber. You can't really sip it. You just chug it on down. - I was kind of minimal on exercise today but after yesterday that is ok. I am still basking in the memory of…
  • Hello, I am Bob. I am retired and kind of wanting to stay active and healthy. I lost a good bit of weight a while ago but I still have to pay attention or it sneaks back. I have been allowing a kind of 5 pound oscillation but it is looking like I landed on a new higher equilibrium. I want to get it off. I figure it is…
  • Tracking yes budget yes exercise - epic Kitchen is closed. Last thing I consume for the day is an 8oz glass of water with a spoon of psyllium fiber stirred into it. That gives me a full feeling and helps with a concise evacuation in the morning. Goal - be regular, er habitual, with that in June. Here is to having June off…
  • Alright, it is too early for me to be reporting in claiming that the kitchen is closed. Never mind that. I will post again in a couple of hours. I want to say congratulations to all those peeps in the winners circle. Here is me admiring your determination and dedication. ... And... I want to say congratulations and…
  • They send me an email that says how many calories I burned. Yes, I put it all as cardio. I am surprised at the heart rates I get doing those floor exercises. Arguably strength but seems pretty cardio to me.
  • @pears734 8.30 min miles. Great job!
  • I am an Orange Theory guy. I kind of like it though not that much experience with it. I think I been 5 or 6 times. I am an old guy so the floor exercise is a bit much for me but I like that they got a spin bike. When I get to my limit on floor they let me go back to spin. I usually get 35 or so splat points. I ain't losing…
  • track yes budget yes exercise - massive Exercise, unbelievably massive. 4 plus hours of climbing. 4,277 feet. My stinking Garmin wouldn't or didn't record it. So much for that obsession. https://www.strava.com/routes/8934316 I guess I will climb it again thursday. That'd be good exercise. Climb this repeatedly until I get…
