Extreme Veteran 393 Richmond Hill, Ontario | Subject: RE: Come and play with aquagirl and mav ! CLOSED 1h45m indoor spin class catered to my tri club. I managed to put the effort in for a good part of it but was getting tired in the last 30 minutes. Fun workout nonetheless though. We usually go for a short run after but I skipped it today. I will run indoors tomorrow after my swim. My long run last week was 38 minutes, I will shoot for 45 this week. |

| Veteran 183 Auburn, Wa | Subject: RE: Come and play with aquagirl and mav ! CLOSED Way to go Helen!!! Didn"t the snot rockets just freeze!! Got a question for everyone in the group today. So I've been consistently training for approx 6 weeks. My cardio status is light years ahead of what it was in Nov. I feel better, my energy level is better, i sleep better, I'm getting muscles where I forgot I had them. So I step on the scale today just to see where I'm at and I haven't lost a pound!!! Not one!! Now I know that muscle weights more than fat but to not lose ONE POUND!! I also realize that I life member of the Clydesdale club and I"m ok with that. Just thought I woulda lost a few lbs! So my question is, will the weight start coming off at some point? The gut is definitely shrinking, I got the "have u been losing weight" question from an coworker the other day. I feel lighter, on my runs I don't feel like such a clodhopper!! I guess I need to focus on the diet more. I'm eating better but not being fanatical about it. Any thoughts from you guys would be appreciated!! Now endith the rant!! Chris |

| Pro 4828 The Land of Ice and Snow | Subject: RE: Come and play with aquagirl and mav ! CLOSED Chris......you have listed a TON of positives from your improved level of fitness. But I can see why you are frustrated. Have you been monitoring your bodyfat %? This is often a much better indication of whats going on than the amount that you weigh. Just a thought..... Keep up the AWESOME work!  |

Keep up the AWESOME work! WAY TO GO! WOOT! WOOT! I agree with Helen on BF% and on all the positives that have come so far. Plus, I would think that if people are asking and your gut is decreasing, your clothes are fitting better. There's a clue that the things you are doing; are working. A second plus, it took many years to get to Nov. It will take some time Third plus, I was taught that the first 6-8 weeks of any conditioning/strengthening program is mostly the neurological and physiological changes after that the physical changes start to really show up. Patience and persistance are key. just a few thoughts...... |

Master 1690 Metro NY Area | Subject: RE: Come and play with aquagirl and mav ! CLOSED Lucky you 60 degrees! It was 17 here today I'm sure our MGers up north it was much colder. Crossfit and 30 minutes on the treadmill were my workouts today. Tomorrow I have a long run. halfdome - 2010-01-30 9:49 PM got a 60 mile ride in outside today. it was a chilly 60!! |

| Uxbridge | Subject: RE: Come and play with aquagirl and mav ! CLOSED Hey Chris. I totally understand your frustration. I experienced much of what you are...it took about 9 months before I started losing weight . Once I started finally losing weight I lost about 15-20 pounds over a six month period. I havent really lost any weight in about 18 months but my body continues to improve and my endurance has increased more than I thought possible.I dont know what my body fat % is, but I can assure you it is a lot less than when I first started training.I watch my weight carefully and weigh myself daily. It keeps me from overeating. I LOVE food. I have thought of naming my blog "I eat therefore I train". Hang in there you will experience great changes in your life due to training. |

| Veteran 198 British Columbia | Subject: RE: Come and play with aquagirl and mav ! CLOSED Hi everyone... Managed to get a few workouts in this week. Work has been crazy. I finally got a picture of the "little terror" in my training log. It was taken a few weeks ago and she has grown since then. Just came back from the pool. Told the kids I was going for a little "me" time and they would have to look after the puppy. Hope everyone is having a great weekend. Will try to catch up on some of the posts later tonight. K.

| Veteran 198 British Columbia | Subject: RE: Come and play with aquagirl and mav ! CLOSED Morning... Thanks guys. I forgot how much work a puppy can be, but boy they're cute. When she's grown she will make a great running partner. Came home from a run this morning (if you can call it that). You pay for it when you haven't run in six months. K.

| Extreme Veteran 393 Richmond Hill, Ontario | Subject: RE: Come and play with aquagirl and mav ! CLOSED Good morning peeps! I managed to get 7 hours of solid training this week and I am quite happy about that. Yay for me! 2300m swim and a 4.2 miles (6.76 km) very slow run on the treadmill this morning. Had I done it outside, my pace would have been about 30" less per km. I begin working with my triathlon coach tomorrow. Time to go for an hour long walk with Macha the Wonderdog. Nats out!

| Veteran 183 Auburn, Wa | Subject: RE: Come and play with aquagirl and mav ! CLOSED Karen, Your puppy is a cutie!!! Thanks ALL for the words of encouragement yesterday. I was just really frustrated and had to vent. Feel better today. You had good points that made sense. i just need to exercise some patience and let it happen, the weight will come off. And the yes the body fat has come down by 5% so that is definitely an improvement!! Thanks again, you guys are a great support group. Happy Sunday to all!! Looking to do my first hour long ride on the trainer today. Chris |
