I am no longer doing the race (no time to train), so bring on the fat!

I'm still fat as sh!t, but I will be spinning tonight. I did like 4 push ups last week, that should count towards something.

This will probably earn me neg rep, but cutting back 99.9% on beer was the best thing I ever did to lose weight.

In May of last year due to a health issue I had to stop drinking alcohol cold turkey, which is bitterly ironic since I love beer...oh, and also because the wifey and I run a small winery. I didn't increase my exercise level or change much else in my diet, but the weight just poured right off. In May I was 225 lbs and by October I was at 195 lbs and that is where I've stayed, which I think is OK for 6'3" and 45.

I freaking love beer and am a horrible beer snob, so dropping it from my routine was miserable, but totally worth it. I'll enjoy a sip or two every now and then. If it is something really special, I'll have a whole pint. :wild:
