Overweight to Raceweight goal

[Alf]

Not looking forward to the weigh-in on Wednesday :thunbdown:. I was hoping a trip round the Edale Skyline course would keep me on the straight and narrow but with its cancellation I could be left with a surplus pound or three!.

I am dreading tomorrow, been in Brussels this weekend, far too much food and drink and no running, hoping training session tonight will burn some of it off. :thunbdown:

My target was 75kg for the 26Km Wicklow Way Trail race last Saturday I weighted myself using my unofficial scales the morning of the run and I clocked in a 75.9kg. Weight loss definitely helped when I clocked my best ever finish in a mountain run. I broke into the top half of the field for the first time (77th out of 193 finishers) :thumbup:..

But what a day in the mountains. Deep snow, freezing fog. Zero degrees at sea level. Visibility < 20m on high. Two major high speed falls on the decent off Djouce Mountain. All in all great day out :wink:

I must have spent Saturday afternoon and Sunday eating because I weighted myself again on my official scales/time and I'm back to 77.8 i.e. no change. :thunbdown:

I blame my birthday celebrations last week. Beer/Wine/Steak and Trifle (lots of it!). Final panic run later on today but I reckon I will be 3lbs up at least tomorrow and I was so close to my target as well :thunbdown:

Well you can put me down as still at 64kg for tomorrows weigh in.

So that means that technically I haven't lost weight but I have cause I put on 2kg in a pre-op binge when I was comfort eating. But I have managed to lose that 2kg in the 2 weeks post-op despite no exercise allowed :thumbup:

I know the feeling Alf,

I have not been running for a week and a half due to Achillesproblem, but also we have just spent 4 days with the new in laws to be, nicepeople but diet and exercise might as well be on another planet for as much considerationas they give it. The thing is the chap is only a couple of years older than meand is on that many drugs for health problems and most if not all must berelated to his eating and heavy drinking, and yet there no sign of the pennydropping. 4 days 4 take aways/meals out, full breakfasts on two days plus asmany cakes sweets biscuits as you could shake a stick at .

In a nut shell I was too polite on one hand and was tooeasily tempted on the other.

Oh well back running now so will have work at it.
