Cats, I highly recommend this unit.
Mik, thanks for the thought, but it looks like my rowing machine has that covered.
Not that my rowing machine is getting much of a workout these days.

I ate a salad twice this week.
Woohoo!
In all seriousness, I did run in my new shoes and they were really nice. I look forward to more running. That being said, I have been busy with house hunting, and work, and at my in-laws where I have probably consumed far too many drinks and snacks. So....I'm kind of going in the wrong direction so far.

I haven't weighed myself, but my pants felt a little looser this morning...
Of course, that might be from pollution...

I ended up 2lbs lighter after a week.
It turns out that drinking four beers on Friday and Saturday led to me putting on weight. Who knew?

The foam roller stuff is interesting, and makes sense. I usually only use it when I’m having back issues (rolling out my hip flexors - the front of my thighs - really helps my back feel better), but now will start doing it every day.
I’m down three pounds from last week, but probably really only down 2, I was super sick this weekend, a fever and a terrible migraine, and couldn’t keep anything down. (Still feel a little queazy).
Been able to wear a couple pair of jeans that I haven’t fit in for a long while, so that’s good. Have a whole closet full of clothes that I look forward to being able to wear again, even if they aren’t the latest fashion.

Down a pound from last Monday. That makes 11 pounds since I started this the first of February, (8 since we started TNCR challenge on March 1st). I had a beer with dinner last night (grilled chicken, green beans and a whole grain rice mix), first one in awhile. Funny thing was, I didn’t feel like I had been missing anything, and am now just as happy drinking NA beer. I have a lot more weight to lose, I’m going for 45 pounds total, and am giving myself a year to get there. That would put me back at the weight I was in vet school, which would be great.

I am down a couple of pounds. Now that the stomach cramps have settled down I will be able to focus on some exercise and drinking more water. This should help things move along...

Down one more pound this week. That’s 12 since Feb 1. Even managed to go out to eat twice, steak sandwich one night, salmon salad the next. I just have to plan, and be really careful the rest of the day. And best thing happened this morning, put on a pair of pants that were comfortable in January and took them off because they are now too big. Yay.

Woohoo! I am down a pound this week, too. I am getting the bicycle out this week.

No change for me, sadly.
I cycled 30 miles on Saturday morning. You'd think something would have happened!
I was only joking
-
It will.
I've lost a total of 4.9 pounds, big whoop. Something is not working. The good news is that I’m pretty sure I have FINALLY discovered the root of the sickness that has been plaguing me for all this endless time, and I’m hoping when things are better I can do better.

I would think that just getting back to cycling means building back a little muscle first. You may actually see a little weight gain at first. That's why there are other metrics besides weight loss that are important.
