Just watned to share (brag) :o a little
I still have the lovely certificate that Tom prepared for me on 12/6/2007 pinned on my wall at work when I officially became a Clyde Emeritus. As of Saturday I am now down to 190 (actually weighed in at 188 after hard 2 hour trainer ride so I was conservative in calling it at 190) which is staying pretty much on that one pound a week pace I have been aiming for. In fact, since 6/1/2007 I have lost 30 pounds which is just a whisker under 1 pound a week. My methodology has been simple. Try to take in about 3500 calories a week less than I use. I've been using fitday.com to track my calories and various other tools to track my calorie expenditures from exercise.
To top it off I'm getting stronger and faster on the bike (quantified on the computer aided trainer I have been using all winter) and in much better shape (quantified by resting heart rate measurements and heart rate tracking during workouts).
I feel awesome and I wanted to tell the world. I can't wait to get outdoors as the weather turns nicer (and lighter). On my way to 170 pounds (or so). 20 to go.
Oh yeah...and I want a new bike :mad::D
