3/3 home interval training.

huge cut down on fags, 4 per day max now, was 10-15 (rollies).

never really been a mid-week drinker but realised that i binge drink, since it's normally only on a friday and i seem not to be able to stop until i pass out!

So must do something about that, should stop altogether for a few months or learn to control myself ...

Our scales broke before xmas, bought some new ones and i've put on 3LB.

Alcohol is a real stumbling block for me.

Week 3

1/4.

1/5, very rough week. Back at it today.

Made according to the formula I laid out...

11 miles running + 15/3 miles hiking = 16 equiv miles

Also got in one rock lifting workout.

My Friday run was epic. I ran a trail I'd never been on which got thinner and thinner but was taking me by rocks and waterfalls and icefalls and so I kept going, but then thought I was pretty sure of where I was and could shortcut quickly through the woods, pick up a fire road and take it back to work. In point of fact I was about 45 degrees off and headed into miles and miles of roadless wilderness. I started to realize it, veered left, eventually picked up a single-track horse trail, followed it through a gorgeous area and made it back to work. I'd been gone 1:45 for my 45-min run. Co-workers (I'm an office drone these days) were starting to worry. So was I at one point. A little over a mile was thrashing through thick manzanita, whitethorn and deadfall. Got back to work late, dirty and cut all to hell. Glad that my subconscious sense of direction eventually overrode from my conscious but incorrect memory of the map otherwise I might have been running all night!

Mackin, congrats for getting into ketosis.  Do you feel different now that your brain is running on brain running on ketones?

Jetboy, nice first week effort!  That is quite a drop in body fat percentage.

Gm66, good job cutting the cigs down -- I know it isn't easy.

Rumbas & Dras, I hope next week is better for you guys, at least you got one workout in.

Ergophobe, wow, what you do for workouts could literally kill someone who doesn't know what he's doing.

Week 3 - 4/4
Down another pound and dipping into the high twelves on the body fat meter.

I think I'm presenting it wrong. It was just a bit of a bushwhack. I could have always turned around and bushwhacked back instead of pressing on. I might have gotten a lot of people pissed off if I had been way overdue and a rescue had been sent out, but it's not cold here despite the season, so I would have been fine out there overnight.

Right.  It's January, and I forgot that there hasn't been a good storm in California in about a month and that it is almost Spring like out there.

Exactly. Sad though it may be, I was actually in SHORTS... in January... at 6000 feet. Night time lows are around 45 degrees. Similar situation in Vermont at zero degrees out could indeed be fatal. My situation would have resulted in hungry, tired and embarrassed, the latter being the biggest risk.

My brain has always been in the GUTTER

Please keep us posted MM!

Week 4 - 4/4

3/3 but i've put on 3lb ??

4/5
2nd leg day my legs and abs (crunches) were too sore and I wasn't up for all cardio. Planned to makeup on Sat but ended up working 14 hours instead.
in my book 14hr workday = excuse granted

That's why i switched to 3 a week, unforseen stuff etc, 3 is more manageable.

>3/3 but i've put on 3lb ??

One thing I've leaned is that weight loss is at least 80% diet.

>in my book 14hr workday = excuse granted

Dras likes to shoot high!  Four workouts in a week is pretty damn good, even if it isn't the target.
