Weekly Weigh In - 9/8

Not sure if Gordon is still out... but wanted to get this going before I forgot... here's the link to the spreadsheet:  https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc...l=en#gid=0

I'm up a bit this week from last, but not too much and not too surprised - I went to the beach this past weekend with friends and didn't follow my primal "diet" that closely and drank a lot more wine that I typically would on a weekend... so, I'm at 129.  Still hoping to be 125 in a few weeks for my first IM RR... we'll see.  I think that's doable, or I'll be close.  The trick will be holding it steady!

Hope everyone else is doing well... particularly the IMWI folks who are tapering!

  • Thanks for starting this Becky!

    I was at exactly my goal weight this morning of 135...now just need to hold steady for 4.5 weeks.
  • Becky,

    Thanks for getting this going.  I am travelling for work.  I estimate 221 that's +6 post IM.

  • 199.5  I am now in the same century mark as Ancona.  Matt, it is so good to be here! 

     

    That's a real, reasonably hydrated, legit weight.  Not a "post-10 mile run in the heat with no water" type of weigh in,  I am so excited.  I would like to thank the academy and all my friend's who....*sniff...who believed in me!  *BWAAAAAAAAAA

     

    First time under 200 for over a decade so it feels real good.  I was officially at 204 on IMLOU race day but that was with clothes and absurdly hydrated.  May I never see the dark side of 200 again.

  • Mark, that's tremendous news!  Congrats!

  • Thanks. I called my family in to witness the event. Should have warned them I was naked.

    I have lost a ton of weight but that is not a sight I would wish on anyone. There was a lot of screaming going on for different reasons. My poor children.
  • Welcome Mark, that had to feel awesome! Congrats on a the major milestone. BTW, I do the same thing and only count the fully hydrated first thing in the morning weigh-ins... it is nice sometimes though to weight in after a run for some motivation.
  • Good job, Mark.  My goal is to go sub-Clydesdale (< 200 lbs.) by end of year.

    My weight is still hovering 208ish.  This is first thing in the morning weigh-in weight as well.  Tapering last week and this so didn't expect weight loss.  Just holding steady until the HIM this weekend.  But throttling back the eating is a challenge in itself.

  • Still holding 187. Not going to complain too much. Training went out the window these last few days due to family emergency. Diet suffered greatly. Back on track. I want to get below 180 by Oct. 24.

    Mark....Congrats on the sub 200
  • This week I am in the "lose a litte catagory", @ 228. With the meat of IMAZ training starting, I am hoping to start seeing it come off a little faster.

    @mark, how are you going to live with yourself, you are going to have to race those "skinnies" instead of Clydesdales!
