Extreme Veteran  544   Shawboro, NC |  Subject: RE: DOWN for 2013 - New Year New You!As you can see, I did 3.82 miles today. I ran for time instead of distance, tonight. The pace here put my 5K time at 32:27. According to strava.com, which I've stopped using but may start using in tandem with RunKeeper, my PR 5K is 31:39. I've entered myself into a BT challenge to cut 2 minutes off of that time! http://runkeeper.com/user/SpeedKnight/activity/149134296?&tripIdBase36=2gsgrc |

Champion 6107   Out running or enjoying a fine glass of red... | Subject: RE: DOWN for 2013 - New Year New You! Out for a Valentine's day wine&dine dinner with hubby - 4 course dinner, paired with wines. This will not be a low caloric affair. In the interest of love and marital harmony, I will - of course - go with the flow and eat and drink.  (Yeah, whatever - I will eat and drink because it will taste flippin' awesome and it's so worth the cheat.) |

Unfortunately we can't call wine carbo loading.....but it is good antioxidant loading |

Champion 6046 New York, NY | Subject: RE: DOWN for 2013 - New Year New You! well before starting my colonoscopy prep, the 3 day juice cleanse and light dinner got me down to 141.6 (total of 14 down from New Year's) and now down at my previous fat weight (lol) a bit scared what the dulcolax/miralax is going to do to me but at least there is not as much solid to purge..... |

Expert 1014 , New Hampshire | Subject: RE: DOWN for 2013 - New Year New You! Good morning BT. Weighed in today at 125!! I haven't weighed this in a while...pre-2007 for sure! 5 more lbs to my goal weight. How's everyone else doing? |

Extreme Veteran 1106 , Connecticut | Subject: RE: DOWN for 2013 - New Year New You! ditto on lol over girl with hand over her mouth! tricupcake - so sorry about your mom, she's lucky to have a caring daughter by her side. As for me: Weight log for Tri-ing to Weightloss 1-6-2013 165 1-11-2013 163.5 1-18-2013 160.5 1-25 159.5 2-1 158.5 2-8 160.5 2-15 165 I have to say that I'm sinking into despair. I did so great on my juice plan and then I didn't. Quickly went right to crazy eating - fast food burgers, 5 oz bag of chips, drives to the store for snickers bars. I hear all the time that it is about eating in moderation, but for me it's like telling an alcoholic to stop at two beers. I know that each day is a new day to make better choices blah, blah... Sorry to be a bummer - I hesitate to spew this on others, don't reach out often (mushy husband who always wants to work on our marriage "jokes" that I'm the guy in the relationship), but I'm putting it out there. Day one of my training plan seemed so far off and now it's down to 6 weeks away! I hate the thought of being fat and trying to train. I really had hoped to drop 20 lbs. to hit 140, but it isn't looking good. Trying not to give up, will try to take it one meal at a time... Didn't do anything special for hubby last night - he worked late and I had to take daughter to tumbling class. Going to make a creative tofu dish for tonight (he's vegetarian), will be good for the whole family. Hope everyone is having a kick- workout day! Mitzi |

Sorry to hear all of this I think for some people, "fasting" and depriving tend to backfire more than anything... (but of course for others it works just fine) maybe for you it's not the best solution? |

Extreme Veteran 642 Chicagoland | Subject: RE: DOWN for 2013 - New Year New You! A little bit of good and a lot of bad today. The little bit of good is that I managed to drag my bootie out of bed for a 500 yard swim. It wasn't great, but it happened which was my only goal for today. Now for the bad. Found out today that my mom also has a cancerous tumor on her spine and got confirmation that one of her kidneys has shut down. The doctor is recommending chemo and radiation, but she's so weak right now that I don't think she would survive it. So I reacted by binge eating on a Big Mac and fries. Now for a little bit more good. I'm going to my first spin class tomorrow morning and although I'm super nervous about it, my only goal is to make it through class without dying. Then on to a gait analysis with my physical therapist and maybe a big ol' nap in the afternoon. |

Extreme Veteran 544 Shawboro, NC | Subject: RE: DOWN for 2013 - New Year New You! BAH!! Damned scale is missing. I'll have to weigh myself on the excessively used and suspect scales at the gym when I do a brick in the morning. Unless I decide I need the day off. My shins and ankles have been bugging me, lately, during my runs. My next race isn't until 2Jun13, so one day off will only put me a bit behind for my 1000 miles in one year goal. |

The spin class will be great. Stomp cancer with each pedal stroke! You are in my thoughts. Hang in there. |

Extreme Veteran 642 Chicagoland | Subject: RE: DOWN for 2013 - New Year New You! In the words of the old school Iron Chef, the spin challenge is ovah! I didn't do the climbs but also didn't stop spinning. The only thing I can think about now is that my bootie is killing me. Seriously, when do spin seats start to not feel like a special form of torture? And because the seat was so uncomfortable, I leaned a lot of my hands which made my wrists hurt. I'm going to go back next week, but I feel a love/hate relationship with spinning starting. |
