Replying to: kyfdx (Mar 04, 2009 12:09 pm) I haven't weighed in recently. I honestly don't recall where I was. I topped out in feb. at 183 or so, this winter was particularly bad. My cycling season kicked off two weeks ago, and is off to a slow (i.e. chilly) start. BUT, it's the earliest I've ever started. I'm sick this week, so I don't think a mid-week ride is in the cards. All in all, I expect my winter weight to start coming off a little in March, and then start coming off big time in April. Regardless of the contest, I'm aiming to get come into my summer weight sometime in April...175 or so. I won't be back to 170 until the end of the summer, when I've put in the most miles. But who knows? Given the early start, maybe I'm on track to crack the 170 line? THAT could be an interesting goal. Internet BMI calculators say I should be between 172 and 176.

Replying to: lucien2 (Mar 25, 2009 8:31 am) Down to 203 as of yesterday, from a high of 214 a couple of months ago. Hoping to get to 200 by the end of the month. Not sure if I can make it, but I'm trying... Bob

#30891 of 31413 Weight by hondafriek Apr 05, 2009 (9:29 am)
For the first time in years I have gained weight, but I have a good excuse. I had knee reconstruction surgery 2 months ago, which has basically kept me housebound. Unfortunately the surgery did not do what we hoped it would. I am now scheduled for a complete knee replacement at the end of April. So that rules out exercising for the forseeable future. Guess I will have to learn the exercise about pushing away from the table. Cheers Pat.

Replying to: hondafriek (Apr 05, 2009 9:29 am) Bummer Pat. I'm sorry to hear that. I hope your new knee works out for you. Bob

Replying to: hondafriek (Apr 05, 2009 9:29 am) awwwww Pat ... sorry you'll have to endure more surgery ... at least they have come so far with the artificial joints .. and you're likely helping the Indiana economy .... joint replacement parts is a big business in our area .... (little consolation to you, I know ...)

Replying to: hondafriek (Apr 05, 2009 9:29 am) Do you swim? Still excellent exercise even with joint problems, or maybe even especially with joint problems. EVen if completely unusable, you can get a very good workout with ankle floats and upper body laps only. I'm getting the stationary bike going and soon transitioning to rollers and the road bike. Currently bouncing between 174-176 on the daily check-up. Too busy with work to get more exercise in. Commuting to work is still a month away at minimum. Snow another 3" last week. Warm weather has melted more than that, but the streets are still not what I consider safe and reliable in my more mature years. If I can get going, I might even trek down to Moab for a spring trip in mid May.

Replying to: hondafriek (Apr 05, 2009 9:29 am) Hey Pat - Sorry to hear about the knee problems. Here's hoping all goes well for the complete replacement. On a positive note - I have a friend who replaced both knees and is now a walking demon . Mark
