How do I feel? Don't ask... it hasn't been a good day. Hmm... maybe it's because I haven't exercised in nearly a week?! Hmmm...

Yay! Everyday last week (except Sat/Sun - unless chores and yard work count)...

How do I feel? Proud of myself...

1000 miles!

I hit 1000 miles this week! Can you believe it?!

If I was on a bike out on the road (instead of the gym)... what city could I have travelled to in the past several months?



Salem, OR

or

just west of Lubbock, TX

or

just west of Denver, CO

or

just north of Idaho Falls, ID

or

Jackson Hole, WY

or

just south of Government Camp, OR


That's a lot of cycling!


NEVER imagined I could do this... granted, it's taken me over 6 months to do this. Throughout these months I've taken several weeks "off" ... and then pushed it HARD in other weeks.

Consistent? no...

Driven? Yes!


How long will it take me to make it to 2000 miles?

weekly weigh-in: 8-20-10

Friday morning weigh-in: 274 pounds
Starting weight: 291 pounds
Weight loss/gain since last weigh-in: -4
Total net weight loss since beginning my journey: -17 pounds

How do I feel?
Still feeling a bit sluggish and bloated. I have been back to the morning cycle every day this week... but dealing with a pinched nerve in my neck which has rendered my left arm nearly useless. I'm not kidding you... it's pretty pathetic. So, overall, feeling pretty puny! But glad to have lost some weight...

4 pounds in one week is merely water weight, I know that. But it's movement in the right direction.

How do I feel?
Sluggish and bloated. Thanks for asking! I am NOW paying for the outright lack of exercise, overeating and general laziness experienced over the last 2 weeks... grrrr!!!

How do I feel?

Like I should have exercised this week. I've been out of my normal routine (family in town) and that makes the discipline less important.


Why is it always that way?!
