Oh God, you are so dead.

We will arm-wrestle for it!

Eight months after surgery and my Crohn's is nowhere to be seen. Bloodwork and barium swallow tests negative, scanner to follow.
I've gained a couple more Kg, I'm up to 65 now. I'm also increasing my physical activities - I've been walking, bowling, playing basketball and karting (damn I love karting).

Screwed up back, no biking this week.  I did go hiking at a place called Vedauwoo (google that for some images), so I got a workout climing over rocks.

My dragon boat team made the semifinals in the Rose Festival this weekend.  We were one second away from making Finals in our division.

I finally get my real bike this week. it's only been 120 plus days since I moved.

[Maladict]

Disassembling the bike for transportation to the French Alps where I will meet my doom.
If I don't report back in a week or so, Lusti gets what's left of the bike.

I just realised I have dropped 16 kg since November. And I still look fat.

Fuck it.

I know what you mean. I've lost over 30kg (70+ lbs) in 18months and I'm still flabby. need to tone up.

don't give up, norgy.

I lost 40 lbs since December and everyone thinks I look unhealthy...I need cheeseburger.

[BuddhaRhubarb]

yeah some friends of mine get that " are you ok?" looks from people who haven't seen them slimmer.

I tend to get good "looks" in that way tho' because I was way unhealthy looking before. bad skin, bags, etc.... I looked my age.

No longer. :p

The Good: I tried some old summer shirts and they are far too big for me now. I have lost a lot of volume, specially around the shoulders, and my body seems very definitely more athletic than ever before.

The Bad: I'm stuck around 88 kg. That means I'm getting denser (in a physical sense only, I hope...  ) and that exercise alone is not going to make me lose more weight, I need a harsher diet too. Curse you, Evolution!

The Ugly: Well, actually not. I'm seeing evident improvements in my pectorals, shoulder muscles, and forearms. However, waist, abdominals, legs and biceps are proving quite more difficult...

175 km of torture, but I made it within 18 minutes of the cut-off time.
