I will reluctantly post some numbers tomorrow morning. I want to race a full season in 2022, but ‘21 has been the most fucked up year of my life. On many levels. I was going to do BIYF but too many business trips in my future for that to be feasible. This seems like a good starting point.
 
I'll be posting my numbers tomorrow as well. Wife and I are doing an 8wk program with E2M Training Motivation Group on FB. Our weigh-ins are tomorrow with the program beginning on Monday.

Found out some of my friends have had success following the plan, as well as some triathlon friends of my wife.
 
Started this morning off with 16 miles on Zwift. I’m trying to do 500 miles this month, so that comes out to just over 16 miles a day average. Have a lot of stuff going on today, so I did the minimum to keep on pace.
 
Weight:
  • Current: 180 (at this weight I look like a pear)
  • Step: 170 by my birthday (Feb 4)
  • Target: 165 by March (at this weight I look like a normal human)
  • Stretch: <160 by April (long ago rock climbing weight)
input:
  • Average <1 serving of wine per day
  • No food after dinner
  • No processed starch (allowed exception: homemade bread)
output:
  • sit on a bike >1hr 3x per week (I have a dumb trainer, I go by time)
  • weights of some sort 2x per week
  • chinups:
    • current: 0 (zero)
    • goal: get back to pyramid-to-ten by summer
other:
  • log every meal on Noom, no matter how bad.
  • come here and confess every f-up
 
I have been hesitant to post....but well aware that I've gained weight and not happy about it. My goal is to lose the 10 lbs I've gained by 3/1. Then another 5 by 4/15.

I am hoping that a pound a week will keep me motivated but also realistic.

My biggest problem is portion control and snacking. So I am working on that with tracking my food/calories. Also not bringing crap into the house.

I've been doing CrossFit since the summer. That counts for my strength training 2-3xs a week.

I'll mix in cardio with either riding or running 2-3xs a week.

We'll see.
 
My diet had been horrible as in anything i can grab and take with me InThe morning then snack while I'm driving around all day then buy lunch while at work then come home exhausted snack and eat an unhealthy dinner. So my diet has to change drastically off to a good start so far resisting temptation. Sweets are my only vice which makes this extra hard. I have quit everything else bad I use to do. Sober going on 12 Years, quit smoking and vaping cant remember when but it's been years. Goal is drop 15 to 20 lbs by end of May. Even with minimal exercise I can't imagine I won't start dropping weight just by not eating like crap. 20 or more certainly doable in that time frame with more effort in the exercise department.... time to get out of this slump I'm in. Hoping for an injury free 2022 that will be the key. Going to enjoy the warm weather today and go for a hike
 
Wife and I did our weigh in's this morning for the E2M FB group that we joined.

I was 235 lbs with an 8wk goal of losing 16lbs. Planning to get there by following the intermittent fasting plan of the program, which includes what to eat. While alcohol is allowed on cheat days, committing to Dry January. Exercise is limited because of my thumb injury, so won't be able to follow circuit training plans. Spin bike, body weight exercises as able, and core work.

We took before pictures, I will not be sharing here, yet.
