Today we rode...

Today, my BFF and I went cycling.  8 miles in about 50 minutes.  She had already run 3 miles this morning, and she still outpaced me.  My excuse was "I've spent the last 5 years getting unfit!!!"  I have a LOT of catching up to do.
We had a blast and made a memory.  And I will take burning 398 calories anytime.
I am still stalled with the weight loss.  Yes, it's starting to grate on my nerves.  I am in a VERY pissy mood right now and want to punch something.  Where does that come from?  I should be overflowing with feel-good hormones right now.
And, I'm starting to punch my laptop keys a bit too hard, so I guess I'm done blogging for the day!

  1. Ah the ever unpopular "plateau". One of the best things to do to get through it is to switch up everything. It only takes about 6 weeks for your body to get used to a routine-both food and exercise, so when you change it, then it has to refocus. If you're mostly doing cardio work, switch to a strength training centered workout. If you eat three meals a day, switch it to 4-5 meals a day or eat at different times than you normally would.

    This has usually been effective whenever I've stalled out.

    And great job on the bike ride--that's an excellent time for 8 miles! I hate trying to time my rides up here...it feels like I spend more time at stop signs/lights than actually riding!
