    i think its because your muscles will retain water immediately after a exercise. i find the same thing.

    Yep, never weigh yourself after a workout. Some really impressive weight loss going on there guys.

    So here's an idea...

    How many of you have an Android phone? Would an Android App be useful to enter/track your efforts... it would still appear by magic on the website as well... :)

    BTW, I notice that very few of you seem to be actually tracking... 50% haven't updated within the last 2 weeks...does this mean you're not losing weight or you've given up???
    No Android for me :-( and thanks for pointing out I'm not making as quick/good progress as I was last year. ;-)

    Sometimes if I drop a pound I worry its just a aberration and I like to have a few days pass at the new weight before I feel I feel comfortable that its off properly... but Im down to 197lbs and that was with quite a boozy week last week.
    Get some good miles in this week, lay off the booze and carbs and lets have a big push to 195. HIGH FIVE!

    Going down again - getting the exercise in regularly and keeping off the worst of the snacks etc. Slow going though and tomorrows beer session may not help...

    16st 1, 13lbs down, 15 to go. Currently expected to hit target in 5 weeks. Wonder whether I can go lower for Marmotte. Starving. Running a calorie deficiency of 1,500 a day during the week. Think I've bought myself a couple of beers this weekend.

    Down to 179lbs a nice hard weekend of turbo + CX in the forest should shave a few more pounds.

    Down under 16st. Think may revise the target down to 14 1/2 stone. Power to weight ratio should be up 15-20% by June.

    Hmmm suspect i gained a few at the weekend thanks to a bucket load of booze and beef.

    Might have to deploy my 'special tactics' - beerZ on Friday JZed? :roll:

    I'm a reformed character.

    How many calories in a pint of Gold? 300-400 I hear you say. Hmmm 1300 calorie deficit today, 1400 yesterday, thats 6 pints right? If I don't eat tomorrow, or Thursday and just have a bag of nuts on Friday, I may be able to keep on track and still manage the usual pintage.

    Maybe.

  • Went away for a week's skiing and came back +2kg. Have bumped most of it back off with a mix of commuting, road rides and turbo sessions. 8)
  • I can't log-in to the website but if I could I'd be saying "WOOHOO I'VE LOST 6 POUNDS" only what feels like a million to go. The pleasing thing is that the majority of that is through just diet. Thanks to the snow I've not done much on the bike at all.

    BUT

    I've borrowed a turbo trainer form a friend so with 11 days to go until my first big-fat race I can start my training. I'll be hitting it morning and night in a last ditch attempt not to get dropped on the first lap - to give you an idea of current confidence levels amongst friends they are currently measuring the "how long will he last" bet in meters... inspiring
  • 8kg lost for me - although I was starting from a higher point than most :p

    Plenty to go for me too. Unlike Bonkstrong, mine has been just through commuting on the bike, weekend turbo sessions and giving up booze and biscuits. I still have the option of cutting down on the pies once the rate of loss tails off.
  • Ah yes, I should have mentioned that I have given up the booze!! Mrs. Bonkstrong is currently up-the-duff with the future winner of Le Tour. She's not drinking so I thought it would be a little unfair to sit there glugging down a nice Châteauneuf-du-Pape whilst she's necking a rather ghastly in comparison, Ovaltine... "wretch"

    Some people change their diet and weight just drops off, I find that unless I get out on the bike too I don't really lose that much. The Evans store in Leeds have lent me a spare turbo skewer so i can try it out tonight, my Hope skewers just don't fit at all :o(

    Another measly 0.5kg off for me, although have to admit I'm pretty close to my 'fighting weight' so I was never going to lose it in spades. Will keep up with the exercise regime ahead of this weekends birthday p1ssup and the inevitable reversal...

    beers and curry last night - and cant find my keys to unlock my bike so PT for me.

    I feel like I've put on about a stone.
  • I seem to have paused at around 87.2kg. I had 24 glorious hours of being 86.6, but then I shot up again over night. I'm not too bothered, though, as I'm happy with 2kgs down so far. I'll update my stats at the end of the week before the Michelin starred blow-out I have booked in for Sunday.

    I'm clearly loosing some body fat, just not that much weight... Going quicker on the bike though...15.2 mph up morden hill tonight...

  • I hit the turbo this morning for the first time ever and I have to say it wasn't as bad as I thought it might be. 10 minute warm up, 10 minutes of 20 second sprint efforts then recover, then 5 minutes warm down. Not only do I feel great, I'm a little bit smarter from watching Brainiac Science Abuse whilst peddling away. This ladies and gentlement, was a win-win situation - a good early morning workout for the body and brain... :)

    I do actually appear to be loosing some weight. Another KG makes it 5 in total....

    I've had a bad few days. Didn't ride last weekend or turbo at all. This week I've not turboed. Drank last friday and this monday. Also the diet hasn't been nearly as good this last week. Must try harder.

    Turboing tommrow morning.
