to think about racing!Did a little pre-season status check yesterday (ouch!) and the results were favorable. A 12% increase in MSS power conbined with a 12% loss in weight has everything headed in the right direction.
Guess all those weights and measures are paying off!

12% loss in weight!?
morgan's (my husband) trying to lose. he's got no body fat, but he's very muscley.
how did you lose 12%
Well, you've got to start with some excess body fat ;). As for the process, calorie counting is the only method that works for me. No fad diets...just simple math.
12%, that is huge!
how long did it take you? was that your goal?
that sounds awesome
i don't even know what mss means
but 12% up and 12% down on any of that is a lot!
good job!
yes, but are you faster??
that's the only measure that counts in bike racing...
I'm happy with both the up and the down.
I think he's faster than last summer right now.
12%...boys...sigh.
(Included in that sigh are the following: good job; wow, that must have taken a ton of willpower; no Ici?!?; and I wish I could do that...)
pab - Soooo true. I'm faster but the real question is am I fast enough...that's why it's 'Time to think about racing'.
Panda...when you count calories you can save room for Ici ;>.
Mike, I'm a counter, too! www.fitday.com I'm down 14% since August. I've got 4 pounds to go to my goal, but last night I changed my goal so I'l be counting a while longer. When you're big like us it's easier to lose bigger percentages. Deficit, deficit, deficit!
Congratulations on the ups and the downs!!!
14%! That's great! I use Crosstrainer, I'll check out FitDay.
cool site!
you know, I didn't bother to calculate my percentage until I saw your post. I knew I lost a lot of pounds, but I figured what the heck! Fluffy girls have lots of weight to lose.
Doesn't it feel amazing, Mike? Like a whole new you!
Congratulations again.
I like fitday, too, but anything over 2% seems a little much for this particular fluffy girl. I might just have to be happy with "stout"...
i thought alicat posted this originally and was kinda scared to race with her if she had lost 12%.....
