Indoor Training

Still too cold to ride outside. 34 degrees when I woke up...yikes! Also I noticed that it's still dark at 6. But that part is OK, I LOVE to ride when the sun is rising--sooo beautiful! :o)

Anyway, I did my indoor training instead like I have all winter--40 minutes of stationary followed by yoga/stretching (will write more about what I do here later).

Also took my measurements to I can track them on this blog. I'm planning on using this ride to help me shed some extra pounds and inches. That will ONLY happen if I eat right. I learned that from a PBS Special I happened to watch while I was training for my triathlon. I had been frustrated as to why I was training so hard and not losing any weight, and then I learned why!

I'll be weighing in every Monday and taking measurements the first Monday of the month. The format is:
weight(in pounds)-chest(not bust, in inches)-waist-hips-left thigh-left arm

Current measurements are:
168-34-32-41-26-13.5

My goal before the ride in September is:
139-33-26-33.5-24-12

I'll write in another post about my eating plan, but here's what I ate today:

6am - Access shake (never start a workout without it! more on this later...)
8am - pineapple/orange/banana protein shake
10am - fruit salad made with cantaloupe, grapes, and banana; vitamins
1pm - lettuce with thousand island dressing, leftover roasted potatoes & vegetable gratin
6:30pm - cooked spinach with seasoned rice vinegar, rice pilaf, carrot sticks
11:00pm - apple; vitamins
