Wow, this is exactly how I feel. I’ll inhale anything – especially poptarts and even mini marshmallows which I don’t find particularly tasty.

When I’m on a losing streak I’m awesome – eating NO refined starches or sugars, no high fat dairy or meats, 7+ fruits and veggies. Plus, about 4+ cardio sessions a week and 3+ strength sessions. I can lose about 2 – 3 lbs a week like this. Then, I get on a bad streak and un-do about two weeks of hard work with two days of binge eating. UGh!

While I hate to see anyone go through this mid-march doldrum period (even the guy I stand to lose $50 to), I must admit that misery does indeed love company. Geek that I am, I’ve been charting my weight since January in Excel. Thus far, after a steep drop over Jan-Fab, my weight profile is beginning to look disturbingly like an EKG. Drop…spike…repeat. Hopefully, now that Winter has had it’s last hurrah, the weight loss will start again in earnest in the next couple of weeks.

I think it the April numbers will be very interesting. I know that in my history I usually hit a plateau after about 8 weeks, and it also seems like there is about a 5-7 day lag from when the diligence decreases until the weight starts to increase.

I bounced up to 224 after hitting 221 early in the month. Spent about 2.5 weeks + or – 1.5 pounds of that before I took the step of extending my two longer, easier sessions a week by about 20 min. That small change put me back on the downward slope again.

I wonder how many other B7 participants hit a solid plateau this month…

Oh, and Lars, you made Diet Mtn Dew come right out my nose.

Lars Said>>>>>>Binge eating is normally caused by boredom. The best solution is to have sex instead of eating. This may be more difficult at work.

I don’t agree with that at all Lars. I’m constantly getting screwed and diddled by my clients, to the extent that it’s getting a bit boring. So I tend to eat a lot.

It’s only two days until April. Then I can say I get my FC top next month. Which begs the question will Kokopelli see the first ever public appearance of Team Fat Cyclist? Assuming that D K and R bought them.

I’ve got a spare switch, where ya want it sent?
About the KTR, have a great time. I love that trail. I’ve done it in both directions and agree that if they have reversed the race, you are in for a particular treat. First time I did it was a 2 dayer in April, only saw a couple other groups.
Would love to do it again some day, but the list of trails is long and think Durango to Moab will get done again first.
I think just deciding to do KTR should ENTITLE you to a couple more brownies. Gotta store up that “Glucose”.

You’re going to ride with Kenny? I thought you proof read all the stuff that you put on this blog. Go back and re-read yesterdays entry and then have a long, careful think about riding with Kenny. Perhaps even get your wife to read it and then if you can convince her that it’s a good idea maybe you’ll get some sympathy when one of you winds up getting helicoptered off the mountain.
