Fitchella 2012 It's GO TIME!

[nyarlathotoats]

I'll start tomorrow

Better late than never vigo! Good luck

Treadmill

Ran 5 miles in 44mins
6.17 in 1hr total

I'm pissed that it didn't show my overall incline. But I ran at a 2 for the 5 miles then kicked it up to 6.5 for a 15 min cool down. Overall I'm pretty pleased.

solid stuff - i've been running almost that exact distance in the same time frame while running outside.

i think i'm getting burned out from working out though

[VigoTheCarpathian]

I went to maestros and had the bone-in fillet and now I'm high

[VigoTheCarpathian]

On weed

[NachoCat]

Just ate a cookie the size of a dinner plate.

[Mugwog]

I'll do fitchella for EDC/*********. Food is too good and I haven't gone past 30 for my waist yet. YET.

[Cameron Frye]

not particularly looking forward to running in 40 degrees tomorrow morning, at least it should be sunny out though.

We had a high of 65 today and definitely turning on the heater tonight. I hate running in the cold. That is the reason why I got my gym membership.

[RageAgainstTheAoki]

I actually love running in the cold. Well, So Cal cold. Nothing below 45, I guess. Nearly 4 weeks after injuring my lower back lifting free weights, I'm finally getting some relief. I started doing a combination of lower back exercises and stretches that combine core strength, stretching and some yoga techniques. 45 mins of rolling around on the floor, every other day. Feeling a lot better as a result.

If I hear this man talking in his "super-hip", monotone, droning voice behind me, watch me punch him in the throat and Tae Bo him in the balls with a quick fluid movement. That'll be MY daily dose of exercise to his nards... he must be on the boards.... fucker

[malcolmjamalawesome]

Originalbob:she thinks the guy from hipster runoff is on the boards.

[zircona1]

I've noticed I tend to run better when it's colder outside as opposed to when it's warm (of course, Cali heat isn't the same as midwest heat).

[sonofhal]

14lbs total loss in last 6 weeks. Not bad, considering I've done fuck all exercise still.

[sonofhal]

Lent over - 15.6lbs lost. Off to be fed Ricotta Pancakes by Gordon Ramsay to celebrate.

[PBborn]

I'm going for twenty in two weeks. Not in a unhealthy way. Vegan diet cycling and weightlifting. From 245.8-239.5 in first two days. That's not water weight because I was drinking pots of coffee every day, and now I'm drinking liters of water a day. I'll be bummed if I only lose 15.

[lt.roast.a.botch]

So is it time to carbo load yet?

Keep telling yourself that. If you truly lost 6 lbs in 2 days (non water weight), that means that over those 2 days you had a 21,000 calorie deficit, which assuming your RMR is 2,000 calories per day and you ate zero calories (fasted), you did enough exercise to burn 17,000 calories (8,500 calories per day). Which equates to about 10 hours of vigorous exercise per day. And doing that much exercise and not eating anything would mean your glycogen stores are gone, you've bonked, and probably dead by not replenishing the energy.

Which is ok, as long as you don't do it in an unhealthy way.

[kitt kat]

I'm trying for 10lbs before weekend 2, but considering how unlikely that is, I'll be happy with a solid 5.

Switching out all the crap in my diet for a variety of good things that I'll cycle in and out of my meals for variety.

Grilled plain chicken breast
Fresh vegetables
Plain whole wheat toast
non-fat cottage cheese
Eggs
Citrus
Tofu

I can totally live off this for two weeks. I need to get potato chips out of my system anyway. I mean, I'm down a good 10lbs in the past few months to begin with...just need to hit that list little bit!

[NachoCat]

Dont be an idiot and go run 5 miles the day before you leave because you want to shed an extra lb. Rest up the 2 days before. The progress you will make in 1-2 days is not worth feeling run down and sore come Friday.

[Goatchella]

I been sleeping and eating like a pig whenever I have time...

It's time to load up...cut out dairy products 100% to trip harder.

[NachoCat]

No dairy. Check.

[guedita]

I've been on a mostly liquid diet of gin and beer for the last week or so. Oops.

[faxman75]

I guess I can check in since I got back form my hearly health screening at work. I have gained 12 pounds since this day last year. The good news is my cholesteral is perfect, blood pressure is normal, blood sugar is normal December 1st 2010 I weighed 300 pounds. I'm currently 278. The bad news is I was 250 in June of last year.

I bike to work every day and to school so hopefully over the next few months my eating habits and activity improve and my weight goes on. It seems almost all of the weight is in my stomach. Cardio cardio cardio. I know how to do it now I have to get it done.

[amyzzz]

I haven't exercised in a couple weeks and I feel like a cow. I'm not gonna worry about it though. Long dresses cover everything.

What's important isn't the number, but the fact that all your levels are in check! Maybe the extra weight is all muscles and healthy pounds? Either way, having your BP/cholesterol down is something to be proud of!

[roberto73]

Finally hit my 30-pound goal last Friday: 185 to 155 since early December. Gradually adding some bad foods back into my rotation so my system doesn't go into shock when I introduce it to four days of the Coachella diet.

[weeklymix]

I hit my Coachella goal. It's go time.

[chairmenmeow47]

i'm going to need pictures of the equipment that got you there weekly.
