PS: The ironic thing is that while I lost weight, my cat "Morty" got a
tad larger! Maybe I need to have a custom uni made for him too! 😉

Morty needs to learn how to pose in a manner that makes him look
slimmer. Just like all the other cats do in the weight loss before and
after pictures. 🙂

I've seen pictures of cats on invisible bikes. Morty could learn to
ride an invisible unicycle. Getting the photographic proof though is
challenging.

Are you trying to kill the cat?

Anywho cheers to your weight loss. And I can find just one problem
with your uni weight loss theory, people are to lazy to ride their b*ke
5 miles to the store to get a prescription filled or pick up a gallon
of milk, do you really think that they would take the time to learn to
ride a unicycle?

i know. he was kidnapped by aliens, learnt their ways, stole the

Good going, Terry.

I went from 185 last January when I started riding to 170 by March, and
I've been steady at that weight since. I try to ride 3 or 4 times a
week, going 8 to 15 miles each time, depending on what uni (24, 29, 36)
I take and how much time I have to ride.

I plan to spend this winter learning the details of hopping, side
jumps, etc, since I would like to do more real muni than just the x-c
trails I've been doing.

As with humans, portion control is essential to keeping pets at their
ideal weight. Even if you're feeding him a "weight maintenance" food,
you'll need to measure each serving you feed him. I just keep a
measuring scoop in my cat's food bag to make sure I give him the
correct portion at each meal.

Maybe Morty was younger and smaller in the first picture.

Maybe we should just skip Terry, and make this thread about Morty.

Yes, you were definitely blurrier in your pre-unicycling days. 🙂

Unfortunately clothing masks your bodily improvements for the most
part, but we who ride understand. I was also stricken by how your
cabinets look exactly like the "before" of our kitchen, a few years
ago. Now we not only have an "after," but the designers that did it
proudly show our cabinets on 'their web site'
(http://www.markfuoco.com/slideshows/KitchensSlideshow.html) (it's
slide #s 4 and 5, red kitchen with white cabinets). We did away with
the slide-up corner thingie.

Unicycling for weight loss is great. I hope Daytripper63 will chime in
here with his experiences. But getting non-unicyclists to learn to ride
for that reason might be a tough sell. You ride a lot because you
*like* unicycling. If you didn't you probably wouldn't do it as much.

Hey I'll go for that! I just made this yesterday, so here's Morty as he
is today in: -"Instant Mortification"-.🙂 Actually, Mort is in terrific
shape and not overweight. It just looks that way in the still shot. (I
know, I know, my room's a mess, haha!)

nice vid of morty, seems like a really cool cat.

I've lost about 15 lbs over the sumer unicycling. and I see more coming
off slowly each week due to my long rides. I'm sitting at 230...down
from 245 - 250ish from June. So i think it helps a ton, not to mention
gets you in shape pretty quickly.

Terry should have known that would happen if he posted a picture with a
cat.

This is now a cat thread.

Yeah, something similar happened to me when I started riding 😉 Alas, I
stopped riding so muych the past year, and have gained much weight...
Trying to ride & walk more so I can get back into shape and fit into my
pants for the winter (shorts will be cold come January...). Working
from home is not conducive to exercise (since I used to walk over a
mile to school before the job 😉)

Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total
obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and
through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see
its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will
remain.

The only difference in your weight I can see is in your neck. The
before certainly didn't make me say, "whoa - there's a heavy dude!"

But congrats on the weight loss.

In the 3.5 years since I started I went from 148 lbs to...wait for
it...148 lbs. In fact, since my ski-bum season of 89/90 I've weighed
148 lbs, plus or minus a big meal and/or a good [censored].

Well, I know I didn't lose 20 lbs just off my neck, lol! Yeah, 4" off my
waist probably accounts for about half or more of the 20 lb weight
loss. Never felt better and it's all thanks to MUni!!! YAy!:p

I can see the difference in your arms and face.
When I got back into unicycling I was 236 lbs and as of January 2007 I
weighed in at 192 and felt great.
Although in January I purchased my employer of 20 years and I can say
my focus was blurred for the first 8 months of this year and I jumped
back up to 220
For the first 8 months of this year I was living proof of what Stress,
a lack of Unicycling, Mocha Almond Fudge Ice cream, Cereal and anything
else edible to calm down my stomach down can do to you...
Now I am back in focus and on a mission to Uni the weight away again.
