I'm back, finally

Reverting to old, weight-gaining eating habits isn't a
crime, thank goodness, or most of us here would be writing
from a jail cell! What's important is that you're here now,
starting/trying again.

Good job on being down a kilo already. Welcome back to the
fold.

I tried to post last week to let you all know that I'm back
but my isp wouldn't send any posts through. So yes, I am
back, I have put on weight but I'm getting myself back on
track. I've had a great week and am down a kilo already.

I need help though so be prepared to see heaps of posts
from me. Oh, and it feels so good to be back :-)

I'm going to admit to my weight today. It's embarrassing to
have to say that I'm not in Onederland anymore. Still, I
know what to do to get back there.

My current weight: 147 lbs Weight change since my last
recorded weight: -5 lbs Total weight change to date: -85 lbs

It's the best day of my life!

visualize such a trip.

Good point - who mentioned a saw anyway.

Are you all set for your 60 mile bike ride this

visualize such a trip.

I got out some gatorade since it has been warmer than normal
for the 3rd water bottle. Check the tires, lube the chain
and pray!!! You ride shorter distances leading up to the
longer ones. This year though I seem to not be able to get
comfortable on the bike. My "seat" has been complaining -
while I have bike shorts, the seams still seem to be
PRESENT. I really am wondering if having less PERSONAL
padding has made this more of an issue even though I should
be clearly riding lighter. But also sometimes the butt just
needs saddle time and more time and even more. I have
already done two 50 miler's and last week's 56 miler. And in
those weeks, some additional riding.

I will be packing my own lunch probably - peanut butter
and jelly. Maybe two. An odwalla or clif bar or WW 2
point bar or multiples thereof! We are hoping that it
starts off somewhat warmer so that we don't have to take
along warmer shirts/long tights and then carry that extra
weight for the ride.

Then you look at the odometer periodically and mumble "is
that all?"

Now wait (weight) just one moment. YOU who sweat with all
that boring INDOOR lifting and cardio question pedaling out
in the great outdoors (ignoring for a moment all the Open
day boating traffic (and saddle sores)) (G)

Chocolate cake is worth one weekend of both biking and a
hike that gains 4,000 feet (1,000 meters) of elevation in 4
miles (6.44 km) and then losing (braking is a lot of
downhill hiking) that elevation in the same distance (as
opposed to parachuting which some nut wants to do!!! (g))

Any additional questions? (G)

This from a guy who hated Phys Ed in school and never played
any sports - you, too, may discover the GREAT OUTDOORS.

Hi, Fred, My husband started doing geocaching last year. I have brought a
pair of hiking boots and we have been to some beautiful parks and
recreational areas. We spent a lot of time walking along restored canals.
We are hoping to buy an inflatable canoe so we can explore the canal more
this summer. You can never tell where you will come across activity points.

I had the gps out yesterday on the bike ride to see where we
were and which roads were nearby and their topography

I have not done specific geocaching yet but a friend has
done a few Confluence Searches. There is a web site where
folks try getting to all the intersections where Latitude
lines cross Longitude lines. Yet another sport with gps (G)
Some are pretty remote and others easier to get to.

Yup, hiking, biking whatever. It is all fine stuff. I have a
kayak I use very infrequently.
