Ok so starting life style journey at same time as going to New Orleans probably was doomed for failure at the get go😂 Had our first group ride of year. I’ve always been the fastest in the group but hauling around extra me, not training as intensely coming back from the shoulder surgey, and I guess soon to be 50 all wrapped…

Woof… fell off the rails since Thursday. Was active every day except yesterday but holding myself accountable, beer consumption and caloric excess was at the opposite spectrum of what I am shooting for. I can’t erase it so I just gotta move on. Goals for today 1) stay under caloric allotment 2) no more than 1 Diet Coke 3)…

I’m sure I let this be an excuse to some extent but it…

Well yesterday didn’t go as planned. Did good till I got home. Just didn’t have it in me to do the trainer and next thing I knew two beers went bye with a few handfuls of nuts and boom caloric goal shot too. I will say I totally let myself. I’ve let work drama consume me even on my days off. As I type this out though a…

Hello everyone It’s been a minute. My first run with this group brought me to a point of fitness I hadn’t seen in years… then life happened. Long story short: found the tip of that again last year but didn’t do it in the healthiest manner (severe caloric restriction). Broke my hand in bike accident and motivation…

Well yesterday food-wise was a bust but had a great day. Plan for today Plan Stay under 2k Don’t eat garbage Get to VT

Busy day.. next few days really Man I really have to keep checking in. My days off I feel like I go off the rails. For sure I see things slipping but also it’s not so bad can’t fix it. Today Sara and I celebrate 26 years… that’s more than my folks made it. She’s stuck with me. Tomorrow my brother and I are headed to VT…

Gotta force myself to step…

Man I’m a mess 🤪 Need to get back on track before k derail all my hard work. The broken finger has really been a problem. Pretty sure I did something to my wrist/hand as well but just wasn’t a fracture cuz man there are certain times I over do a movement say like try to push down with the hand and I just can’t. I know I…

I went off the rails a little yesterday. I’ve had two days now where I’ve eaten over my goal. Feel bloated and guilty. Could see myself slipping down a dark hole pretty easy right now if I don’t stay in top of this. Frustrated with this whole finger/hand thing Pain still present Swelling still hasn’t come down much I…

So second day turned not so good Monday…I’ve been really doing well with weight and exercise. I admit I could/ need to make better nutrition choices as I know my protein intake has been poor but I’ll get there. The kick in the pants though is that I was coming down this trail in the mountains with some friends of mine and…

I woke up a little late yesterday so didn’t make enough time to write my goals. I’ve been doing pretty good lately. Weight stable, strength good, riding well. Actually PRd my local trail trying to catch a teenager (which I did) bur at 48 the PRs come less and less so I’m pretty happy about that. Although I’m staying within…

Hi everyone Happy belated Mother’s Day to the mamas! Last two days have been slack on the goals and heavier on the calories. Time to get things back in gear. Still have today and tomorrow off. Have a bunch of things I’d like to get done in addition to making next two days really heavy training volume so gonna try to stay…

Yesterday the snack monster visited. I’ve been here before. Goal weight (or close to it) and some self destructive gene kicks in. It tells me a screw it… just eat what ever. You can forgive yourself and start tomorrow. This is for sure true but it’s the staying on task that gets me. I’ve got kind of a busy day at work… I’m…

Hey guys Hope all is well! Trying to stay focused here. I’ve been spotty about writing down my goals since I kinda lost my routine with vacation but for most part have kept things in line making the goals in my head. Yesterday I went off the rails. The background was that I did a 50 mile “backwoods” mtb race called the…

Haha I had a big journal comment and the. Pushed done instead of post reply😂 Gonna spare you all from it… I’ve not been as good about journaling here lately and my daily caloric diary shows it. Luckily I’ve been really active but as you know running 2 miles barely covers the calories or a snickers bar. Todays goals Trainer…

Man… on the struggle bus getting back into a flow. Was pretty fatigued up until yesterday. I think maybe residual from vacation? The power was out yesterday morning so all three of us got ready via candle light. Today is last day of work stretch then 6 days off. Thursday, Friday and Saturday already pretty full. I’ve got…
