April challenge

KHilgendorfKHilgendorf Member, Rooster Endurance Member, POTM
edited April 2023 in Main

With spring officially starting here in the northern hemisphere, we’re rapidly approaching beach season. And while my Irish/Norwegian ass will never get tan, it can stand to shrink a bit in prep for budgie smuggler afternoons (and I’m sick of struggling to run 8:30/mi pace).

April goal is -10 lbs. Only 11 lbs to go.

    I've certainly got a spare 5 kg I could do with shifting

    I'm aiming for 3-4 kg. Ran a 5k a couple of weekends ago and joked to a friend that I was 20 lbs slower than my last one...

    I should probably post before and after…

    Weights. Nobody wants to see these pics (for support: see sawry tribulations thread).

    I’m starting at 197. Goal: 185.

    I weighed in at 207 this morning but I'm sure I was over 210 in the past week. I'm going to set my sights on 199.9. Haven't seen anything under 200 in a couple years at least. Cue the tuba

    I started the youngster's cruise at 218, and finished the cruise on April 1 at 223. Let's just say that I need to lose 28 to get back to the Faris Al Sultain outfit. That's a stretch.
    Stretch, get it...

    Well now since this has garnered some interest, I think I'll jump in as well. I topped out at 228 on my birthday. Goal is 215 by month end. Swearing off booze until I show up at James's house. I need to slim down if I'm going to squeeze into that terry cloth robe.

    I went on a Caribbean cruise with the whole family and managed to gain just 6 lbs. I did do one 10km run on the track on the boat, but there just wasn't time to exercise (and so much time to eat and drink!). Anyway, I'll do my best to be back at my April 1st weight by May 1st (204) and call that victory.

    I changed the handlebars on my bike and saved 60 grams.

    The goal was to gain the weight, wasn't it?

    No one mentioned that I had to use the new handlebars to lose weight myself. But they are pretty to look at.
