Are you sick or something?
Inspired by Fuegote, FM Coug and Thatsportsfan's weight loss successes and feeling the pressure of several upcoming tough cycling events, I've been carefully monitoring my food intake for the past 2 months. I wouldn't say its a full blown diet, but just me thinging twice about that pint of Ben and Jerry's before bed.
Since March 1st, I've faithfully carried a 500-700 kcal daily deficit. As a result, I've lost a consistent pound a week, for a total of 7 pounds over 7 weeks. I didn't have a whole lot to lose in the first place, but have hung around 171 for the past year and a half. My goal was 162 by May 10th, so I'll be pretty close to that just in time for the Tour of the Unknown Coast, which claims to be the toughest century in California. Anyway, the point of the whole post. I was at church yesterday and this lady came up to me after the meetings and says, "Are you feeling well? I mean are you sick or something? You've lost a lot of weight lately and it just does not look good on you." Um, thanks. I think. |
