I was a guinea pig in med school and participated in a study where I had to increase my weight by 10%, and keep it on for a few weeks.
At start of study: 145
After 3 weeks: 160
It was easy to gain the weight, they gave us free "sustical" which is like ensure. I drank 3 or 4 daily. Only took 3 weeks to gain the 15 pounds. It took more like 3 months to lose it.
That was 20 years ago.
Current weight: 143. Fluctuates from 136-148.

nice Herbie.
Cycling has been good to me as well.
When I restarted riding again in 2007, I weighed 219. Now I feel fat at 190 which is where I'm at today. By summer I'll be 180 again. I just renewed my passport and I looked at the picture from 2004. Holy crap I was a fat ass.

Great post Herbie!
I started on BF in the Hybrid and Clydes Forums, and was actually thinking about losing my Clyde status this week/next week. I went from 225 to 205 fast with cycling, but then have hung there for years. I am for the first time in a long time thinking 185 is possible. Coupled with the no smoking, I intend to rock my bike in the Spring.
I want to do the Glen race, but don't know if they will let me bring the treadmill.

That is awesome, Herbie. It's amazing how cycling can change a life. Mostly for the good.

BTW, Herbie, that post (ie reminder) had me bring out the kettlebells and medicine ball to use while watching football. Thanks.

Somewhere along the way we got into weight loss and when I told him I once weighed 260# and could barely finish a 10 mile MUP ride. I thought of this post. Cycling has been good to me.

Did a chatty easy ride with a team mate today and we discussed everything from 2014 race plans and old races to the unfortunate reality of dog mortality.

Made red wine braised short ribs over purple mashed potatoes. Nice dinner.
