(8 months 1 week post-op) so for the month of May i'm focusing on endurance. April was about getting out a lot and taking pictures. so my official stats for April was:
555 miles
44 hours
just under 10,000 ft climbed
40000+ calories burned
10lbs lost
that's doing it for a just under 300lbs dude, wouldn't you say? so this month i need to start pushing the limits. i need to get my fat ass used to being in the saddle over 2.5 hours. so i'm going to try to crank my base up to 40 and when i get faster to 50 miles. right now it takes me 3:40 to ride 50 and that's too long to do regularly. but if i can get that under 3 then it's doable. but for me to do that...i have to crank up the mileage.
diet: the dark horse in the room... i made a bunch of grilled chicken this weekend and grilled skirt steak. i put them in a bunch of 8oz containers and if i need something quick to eat i pop one in the microwave for 30 seconds and i'm off. i'm also making (very fattening) mashed potatoes. why? because i little bit with something healthy satisfies that naughyness in the taste buds you need every now and then. and besides they're better for you than french fries :)
almost 2 lbs lost this week and i'll take it, seeing as how i had 2 pints of ben and jerrys this week. yeah, yeah, i know :)
weight: 289.8 lbs
