    Uhh it's like doing over 400 km with 6km climb and then doing the Fred Whitton next day. Tempting!

    I'd given some serious thought, the accounts are truly horrific, which makes it even more appealing.

    However, in the end I signed up to do the Bryan Chapman Memorial 600 again... not sure 3 weeks are long enough to make me want to do the Pendle after the BCM.

    It's been a while since my lat update, but I've been making some steady progress. From a cycling perspective, i've been keeping up with the daily commutes, and using Strava as a motivator, now regularly getting daily top 10s. One surprising change is that i find it much easier to get out of the saddle now, i know it's a little thing, but i was never able to do this before for longer than a second. Over the next few months i need to work on keeping my diet in check, and i am thinking about getting an indoor trainer to try and start doing some more structured training as i can imagine i may slow down on the weight loss over the winter period.

    Somehow managed to drop a kg after a few days off in Venice (missed the acqua alta, mind you!), but nowadays I'll take all sort of pyrrhic victories.

    Have mostly quit alcohol and now there are less sweets home through unrelated reasons, so I guess I'll drop a kg or so before Xmas, but there is no chance I'll make it to 70.0 without getting a turbo trainer.

    Hope to crank another KG out before Xmas. I'm eating more chocolate than ever, but I'm also on course of my biggest mileage since 2012.

    I am not on course for my biggest mileage, BUT am eating more chocolate than ever :-(

    Back up to over 65, but hoping to see if I can hold that over Christmas, been struggling with consecutive colds over the last 1-2 months, there's a lot of lurgy out there at present, and coldish damp conditions are not ideal.

    Hit my first goal of going sub 100Kg, although that lasted just a day. With christmas parties happening, the communiting has taken a bit of a back seat. I can imagine putting on a few grams over the festive period, but i will be ready to get back on it in the new year.

    As a little reward i also invested in a crank based power meter from 4iiii. I'm hoping together with an indoor trainer i can start doing more structured work outs and keep improving my fitness in 2019.

    I don't have access to my regular scale right now, so I'll settle with my pre-Xmas weight. Only Lord knows what I'll find on back in Edinburgh, other than tourists laying dead in Princes St. Gardens since Hogmanay.

  • The way I'm heading, I need a new thread, "silly commuter weight gain." I'm threatening to break the 80Kg threshold for the first time in almost two years, when I got down to ~73Kg in August 2017, about my only consolement is my FTP is at its highest to date! :lol:

    My story. Few years ago I was commuting about 5 miles each way and didn't really monitor what I was eating drinking but didn't feel/notice any difference and excused excess by saying I'll burn it off on the commute. I ended up changing jobs which meant I could no longer commute by bike, my only bit of excersing other than walking dog and a bit of rugby coaching and reffing but I still didn't monitor what I was eating or weighed, untill about August when I stood on scales and found they'd broken. We got replacement scales and at 169cm tall I think I was just over or at 100kg.
    After a bit of gym work and watching what I was eating and drinking I got down to about 90kg and lost about 4cm off my belly and reduced body fat.
    I've since changed jobs again in October and back on bike 10 miles each way this time and I'm now down to 79kg lost another 3cm off the belly and body fat down to 23%
    I pay a bit more attention to what I'm eating but still eat the occasional crap or over eat but not as much as I used to. I feel healthier and as I move more I feel like being more active. I went for a short 30 mins run Friday as example as on holiday and been off the bike. I also do a few more sit and press ups for strength conditioning.
    I think the biggest effect has been the reduced alcohol intake has helped
    Blood pressure has also improved along with resting heart rate.
    Targets next year is to.lose another 10kg to get to within healthy bmi weight in first quarter and continue on cardio /fitness improvements both on bike but also running as well as a bit of muscle definition.
    I'm looking at getting a fitness tracker with heart rate zones coaching like the polar m463 and I'm going to pay for zombie run membership to help with the running and get back into spin class at the gym.
    Good luck all
    Happy new year
    Andy
