So after working on V's room, I decided laundry and sorting could wait until today. I really don't want her to feel overwhelmed. Anyway, the room is cleaner than it has been in quite some time. Today is work, laundry and spin class. Not necessarily in that order. Spin is at 6:00 so laundry may be before and or after...…

Most of my weight loss was during the first year, but I was able to lose the last 7 pounds while training for endurance events. Mind you I was working with a coach/nutritionist and very regimented, and it was to attain a certain goal, State time trial. My 1/2 training was just cross training for the biking. My level of…

I was never particularly sporty or fast in my youth, but hit some major milestones in my early 40's. I'm still not a sprinter though I have a nice finishing kick. After my Achilles repair I decided I wanted to try running again. I ran in high school, but poorly due to poor nutrition. At 40, I went from a 10-12 minute miler…

Didn't log much over the weekend, but I did exercise Saturday. Okay I did a hard 16 mile bike ride, followed by a more relaxed 24 mile Pub ride. It was 40 mile total on the day with beer and deep fried goodness as we finished up. I think we hit 5 pubs on our ride. I'm not much of a craft beer person so I mostly just did…

Sierra made it home safely yesterday and we talked for hours. It was really nice hearing about her year, except that she told me she went through a severe depressive episode. She did finally reach out for help, thank goodness. She lost 25 pounds in 1 month, she only weighs 115 on a good day. It broke my heart, but I stayed…

I'm a grinder also, some of the people I ride with have a triple as opposed to a double or compact double and simply have more gears than I do. Even at my fastest/lowest weight/fittest I couldn't spin the hills. If you figure it out pass it along, I'm a huffing mess...

Was super busy yesterday, and though I got on and read, I didn't post goals. All in all it was a relatively low cal day with a bike ride. The ride was good, we had a few drinks after. The guys started talking about how fast I used to be to a new guy. It was kind of embarrassing and made me feel bad for being where I am…

I had goals over the weekend, but didn't write them down. Saturday they revolved around house cleaning, which I got done. Sunday I skipped church to watch my girl row on ESPN+. It was cool seeing her on TV I actually took pictures of the TV my younger daughter found that hilarious. After the races I went an bought some new…

Yesterday was pretty good for a date night. I limited my alcohol and came in just under for the day. If I hadn't pre-logged it I wouldn't have hit that goal. Preparation is key and I know that, yet I falter. Take today for example I didn't bring food to work so I ate junk... JFT Friday - Up at 6:00 :smiley: - Work by 6:30…

Well yesterday was a cluster, but boy was it fun. Hubby decided to take me out and we played trivia and shot pool, we sucked at both, but had a really good time. Tonight is actually date night, but I think I'll limit the alcohol tonight because last night was rather excessive. Luckily enough I don't feel bad today other…

Tim is this you? Just kidding, my husband isn't on here, but this could be his post. I got a Peleton for Christmas a few years ago. I used it for about 2 weeks then I didn't use it at all. I thought I wanted one. I love spin classes and riding my bike so it was natural that I would love this, right? What I found was that I…

I took a peak at your diary, and when you've been logging you have been over your calorie allotment the past week by a significant amount. And there are a lot of "quick add" calories. Low carb/IF isn't magic, you still have to maintain a calorie deficit. Do you like low carb/IF? If so, that's fine it can work for you if…

Yesterday was good. I left work early, voted and then went to pre-ride the course I was going to lead the new riders on. Actually, voting took a little longer than expected so I had to drive the route instead of riding it, but still it was ok. The group of new riders weren't really new riders. Most have ridden for a while,…

Well, I forgot I had a choir concert to go to last night so exercise didn't happen and we went out to eat and I had a beer at the Mexican restaurant. Sooo yesterday was a bit of a miss... Today I will get a little bit of movement in. I'm doing a club ride, but I'm coaching new riders, so it will be short and slow. I may…

Can't figure out what is wrong with my app, it just won't let me post pictures. The weekend was good. V was a little slow getting ready, so I didn't get pictures at the venues I had hoped. I added some pics in the spoiler now that I'm on my laptop. Mother's Day was largely spent trying to fix a water leak at my mom's…

Trying to get it together… Posted some prom pictures on my profile page and one as my profile picture, won’t let me post them here for some reason.

Good day yesterday. Food choices were iffy, but the overall was okay. Date night was fun we won at trivia. The nice thing about trivia is that we can go, hang out and play and still be home before 10:00. Works well for me. Today I'm going to go down and pay mom's property taxes. I totally don't understand the bill they…

Well, I'm not losing weight, but I am logging and staying around maintenance. I'll take that for now. Its the week leading up to prom so we've been doing prom stuff. Tuesday was hair. Wednesday was dress pick up and mom redoing her hair she didn't like. I am no beautician, but I can mix chemicals and use a timer. She does…

Tuesday was ok. There were homemade chocolate chip cookies at home so I definitely didn't eat the best yesterday, but I did stay within maintenance even with the cookies and Chinese for dinner. Weight was steady today despite the sodium. Didn't ride or walk due to weather and general laziness. Today, I am going to go get…

I've found that eating back exercise calories (I eat back about 1/2) really helps me stick to my plan. If not I get hangry and cave into the cravings. Good luck. 1100 cals is a hard goal, especially if you don't eat back some. I'm short and have a sedentary job so my cal requirements to lose weight are low also, but I…
