Wednesday (10/6) Monday was a good day, rode 19 miles to start the day, protein was great at 140 grams, carbs were a little high at 159 net grams, calories were also good. Tuesday's exercise was lunges and push-ups (rest day from riding). Food was a total train wreck... stopped logging after I went over 2500 calories for…

10/6: Exercise - yesterday was a no-ride day, so did lunges and push-ups to get in my exercise Food - don't want to talk about it... total disaster... waaaay over on carbs, made the bare minimum 100 grams on protein, way over on calories... sigh. Good news is that I was only up a half lb this morning (HTH does that…

Back on the bike today - 19.5 miles @ 13.7 mph average. Yesterday was a bike rest day, but I did get in several sets of lunges and push-ups to get some exercise in for the day.

What are you doing in my daydream?!?!?!?

I would recommend ramping up slowly on the magnesium... it will not hurt you, but there is a magic point at which the body starts discarding the extra and you will be spending a lot of time in the bathroom...

Today is a bike rest day, so doing upper body workouts and lunges thru the day.

10/5: Exercise - rode 19 miles @ 13.5 mph avg, did upper body work later in the day Food - protein was great at 140 grams, carbs a little high at 159 net grams Steps - 9700 Today is a no ride day, so will be doing leg workouts thru the day (lunges and squats).

Monday check-in (10/4): No ride on Friday, it was raining in the morning and that closes the bike paths, food was good for the day. Saturday was busy, lots of chores, rode 21.45 miles on the bike, cleaned up in the garage, got the Halloween deco out of the attic, etc. Food was good, high protein and carbs on point. Sunday…

10/1: No bike ride - rain in the morning closed the bike paths, food was on point, protein at 149 grams, carbs at 135 net, steps were low, but the weekend made up for that 10/2: Morning ride of 21.45 miles @ 13.9 mph avg, did lots of chores around the house and stayed active all day, food was good - 131 grams protein, 146…

Morning ride - 18.97 miles @ 13.5 mph average. Upper body workouts later today.

Ran errands, got the Halloween deco out of the attic, did laundry and then rode 21.45 miles @ 13.9 mph avg.... would have gotton a better mph but 2/3 of the ride it was raining so I had to dial it back some.

FitBit 3

No morning ride today, we had over night rain so the path would be under water in several places. Have been doing upper body stuff and will get on the spin bike this evening.

September wrap-up: Exercise was good for the month - biked 309.14 miles, walked an additional 25.33 miles and averaged 7247 steps per day. I also did 900 push-up across the month, so not totally neglecting my upper body. Food - good except for a couple of weekends that went totally off the rails, protein daily average was…

September wrap-up: Weight - down 6.7 lbs Exercise - biked 309.14 miles, walked an average of 7250 steps per day and did 900 push-ups for the month Food - averages 122 grams of protein and 140 grams of net carbs per day (both right in the sweet zone) All in all, a good month. Had a couple of weekends that went off the…

I'm not a big fan of the 'stairs' feature on the FitBits... they use changes in air pressure to determine if you are going up/down stairs, so on my morning bike rides on a moderately hilly path, I get credited with anywhere from 40 to 60 flights of stairs.

9/30: Rode 17.82 miles yesterday @ 14.0 mph avg (my first 14 for the year!) Food was good - protein 147 grams, carbs at 147 net grams

Morning ride - 19.1 miles @ 13.7 mph. Will be doing upper body later today. After yesterday's ride, I did 100 push-ups (5 x 20) during the day. Month end total for riding - 309.14 miles Month end total for push-ups - 895 (plus any I do today)

9/29 check-in: Bike rides -> 26.9 miles on Saturday, 17.8 miles Monday, 17.8 miles today. Food -> mostly good, did have a bit of a go with the PB last night, but still managed to be down in weight for the morning, so no real damage done. Clocked my first 14 mph average on this morning's ride, so feeling good after the rest…

IN for me: October goals: Exercise: Bike - ride days when weather permits, do spin bike when not - at least 350 miles on the bike (weather permitting). Other exercise - upper body workouts at least 3 days a week (body weight and weights) Walking - I have noticed that I am a slug if I'm not riding so average at least 7500…

9/27: Rest day so no bike ride, did do push-ups and lunges thru the day for some exercise. Food good - protein 135 grams and carbs 145 grams net. 9/28: Rode the bike for 17.8 miles @ 13.7 mph average (78 minutes total ride time). Food was good until I grabbed the PB last night... still managed to stay under maint, so that…

I agree with T1DCarnivore... I am not diabetic and numbers like you posted would not surprise me at all, especially when eating keto/low carb for awhile. The good thing to note is that it dropped so quickly after you took the walk - that means that your body was doing what it should do and used the glucose effectively to…

Back on the bike this morning, 17.82 miles @ 14.0 mph average, 76 minute ride. My first 14 mph average ride of the season! Not too shabby on a mountain bike converted into a hybrid. Will be doing upper body stuff thru the day as well.

Today is a rest day, but did 60 pushups and 40 lunges just to stay active

Congrats on that accomplishment, @Djproulx !!! Today's ride - 17.82 miles @ 13.7 mph average, 78 minutes total.

9/27: Missed a few days so I will summarize... Took two rest days last week, body just needed a break, but got in 61.73 miles on the bike (Thurs thru Sat, including a 27 mile ride Saturday morning). Food was good with protein over 100 grams everyday, did have a couple of higher carb days but nothing above 160 grams. Last…

No formal workout today, but stayed active doing the weekly grocery runs, cleaning and trimming the front tree. Good luck Djp!

Did 27 miles @ 13.9 mph avg this morning, will be doing chores and yardwork later today.

I would disagree with this - (please don't bamify me Bacon! :smile: ) - they are down on the idea that there is something mystical and magical about IF - whether it negates calories, makes your body behave differently in regards to calories, etc. I have not seen anyone who is down on IF simply because it's 'IF'. I normally…

9/24: Exercise - road 17.04 miles @ 13.7 mph, 75 minute ride. Food - calories were good, protein 141 grams, carbs 129 grams net It has been chilly here the last couple of mornings - in the upper 50's - so the ride has been more pleasant as I'm not dripping wet in the middle of the ride. Only problem with that is I actually…
