OsuMj Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 (edited) According to the interwebs, I burnt over 7k calories in one afternoon on the bicycle. gah. My biking history says 86 miles, 2,900 calories. I want to eat like a 250 lb man, but I have to exercise twice as hard to do it!

OsuMj Posted August 21, 2014 Report Share Posted August 21, 2014 btw, that's amazing. 7,000 calories!! Takes a lot of hard work to get there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NDspd Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 i just started riding quite a bit myself, about 80-100 miles a week on my road bike. Lost 8 pounds in a month and a half. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zx3vfr Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 Nutrisystem is just expensive ass portion control really. The expensive part works for me cause I've already paid for food and helps me from cheating and paying for other food at this point. Just did the 10 day trial to try and kick start better portion control and calorie countingI started at 250 and I'm only 5'9" so in my opinion im considerably overweight. I've never been a skinny guy but my weight now is just far too unhealthywe both are close to the same. Idropped from 250 to 195 by cutting carbs (cut out all grains, legumes and dairy). Another 5 pounds and I'll up my carbs until I hit my goal weight of 175 then I'll up them again to maintenance mode and stick there. Im eating just about 50 grams of carbs a day all in the form of veggies. The rest is organic pastured meats. I still have a cider a couple times a week and a 85% cacoa square every night. Its 90% will power and 10% actually doing it. I have no desire to eat bread potatoes or pasta at this point. I do make some crock pot Mexican chicken on lettuce and I'll put some yogurt made with whole milk on it to make it seeem like a our cream.

Bad324 Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 So after a week I'm holding steady at 6.5lbs lost and that was with drinking a ton Saturday and enjoying a delicious filet dinner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NDspd Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 In a 2 month span of riding I went from 202 to now at 196.4. It's a slow process, but I'm trying to burn off the fat off my butt and belly. My legs and arms though hardly have any excess on them...weird.

lowcel Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 First century ride, tomorrow. Looking forward to some mind-numbing pedal churning for a solid 5-6 hours. Best of luck to you. Stay hydrated, eat, and get off the bike and stretch from time to time. After the seventy mile point it is more mental than anything else. Oh yeah, try to enjoy it.

lowcel Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Century complete. 104 miles in 6:15. Hardly a record break, but alright for less than 400 miles of cycling before this. Now, I have 502 on the Trek's odometer. That is awesome! Congratulations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OsuMj Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) congrats!I did next to nothing last week, barely got out of bed because of a cold & allergies. today, I almost signed up for a half marathon on October 4th, but since I haven't been running, I was thinking maybe I should run this week and see if I have a chance of finishing... although, if I sign up, that's pretty good motivation to just do it. How are the fitbits treating you guys? Edited September 8, 2014 by OsuMj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue03636 Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Mine is telling me how lazy I am. I guess the plus side is that if I'm not moving enough I go run or bike so that's a plus. I really need to put miles on the bike, it's starting to collect dust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykill Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Soooo everyone keeping up? I signed up for tough mudder again in May and have been lifting year round. Starting cardio back up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OsuMj Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Nope. I'm doing terrible. My pants don't fit lol. I need to get back to it after I get moved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zx3vfr Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 In June I was 250. I've been 180 since mid October but have been able to maintain 180 eating like crap. Started low carb again a couple days ago so once I dump the water weight again I should easily be 170-175 then when work slows down at the end if December I'm going to hit the gym and try and pack on some muscle.

blue03636 Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 I have taken the last few weeks off but I did manage my first 5k on thanksgiving. I probably should have done some training for it and apparently I have some sort of asthma from exercise. I did ok, wanted under 30min, managed 30:39. I think I could have broken the 30 mark had I known about the asthma and better prepared for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
