happy labor day...

last week was the longest week ever. one night i binge ate 4 skor bars back to back from the stress. i'm in the process of eliminating that "stress" so i think i nipped that stress eating in the bud. i'll keep my "official" weigh-ins on monday mornings mostly so i can have a goal and time to shoot for.

HHH
the hotter than hell hundred was better than i expected. the first year i tried the hundred i completed it. the next time i didn't. i'm glad i failed miserably the second time because i prepared like crazy making sure i would make it. it was more about how/what to eat/drink, the electrolyte balance and my calorie intake. i'd say i was almost perfect. after i got off the bike i could have run 5 miles. it felt awesome.

YEAR ANNIVERSARY
that was a horrible day. but i will share that it felt awesome to have lost 91 lbs. i was so consumed with hitting a hundred in a year that i lost the fact that i had last NINETY ONE POUNDS!!! no wonder i feel great and have more energy.


IRONMAN UPDATE
i decided i won't be doing the multisport thing in earnest until late october. right now the best exercise for burning fat and calories is cycling. the lighter i am when i start the other sports the better i will be and the more focused i will be on performance. ideally 240 is a good weight for me to start running. that was the weight my ortho wanted me to shoot for because i was 250 when i tore my ACL the first time. ten less than that would be a good target. that said. no matter what i will start walking after my rides beginning november 1st.

time to get my ride on... yes it is raining, no that doesn't stop me, that's why they made chain lube and my bike is titanium :)

weight: 258.4 lbs
