OK ..... I started on Jan. 5th by giving up beer/wine, not eating chocolate ice cream every night and eating much more sensibly. That's enough calories to sustain a family of at least three right there.  Then yesterday, the 12th, began a daily walk of a couple of miles a day.  Then next Monday to the gym to begin a light regimen of 60 min. work outs at least three times a week. 

This is important .......health wise. Hope I can do it.

Looking to go from 240#'s down to below 200#'s.

we've all been here (DMF/ and DML previously) for more than a year and we all met here.   We can all be better/healthier this time 2010.   Awesome that you're making the change to your life.    You absolutely can do it.   I want to see a post before the end of 2009 that has you under 200.

How much climbing and how much headwind?

Good question. Fortunately on the Shore we don't have hills, but I guess I am wondering what would be an average pace for a ride? I know these are not pro cyclist, I personally could not imagine getting an avg of more than 20mph for 3 hour. I know dudes like Baylis can crush pedals pretty good but I figure Nicky and esp. Roger are more along my lines of fitness?

6 x .1 mile
6 x .25 mile
2 x .5 mile

far too many pushups

that is all.

crap week.    ate anything and everything and then had seconds. 

drank like a fish too.

sucks that one week can show so quickly around the middle.

I'd go workout now but hey, we have guests coming in about ten minutes to....drink like fish.    convenient.


do we need a seperate backslide on getting fit thread?

fack.

In my head I know I just keep going and not dwell on it and just get back into the routine.   But it's hard to not get pissed at yourself.

side note...anyone else put sticky notes on the alarm clock saying 'don't hit snooze you fat bastard'  or is that just me?

^^^^ I used to have this on the bathroom mirror (when I was training for selection).

"Do or do not, there is no try"

Help is on the way.

I'm thinking of going the Team in Training (TNT) route to get ready for a Century ride in Tahoe in June.

Anyone else ever participated w/ TNT?

Spent the day at an Olympic Lift Seminar. Nothing like 6hrs of drills an "O" lifts to get your attention.
