Day 35

20K to 40K took 19 days. It's not surprising that I've slowed down over the last month in terms of scoring points.  I haven't been exercising much and I've had a few days of eating badly (today's kind of another one).  As such the points have slowed down.  What is shocking though is that I've continued to lose weight.  I honestly expected to have stagnated over the past few weeks.  Instead I've continued to maintain my average loss.

Weigh-in result:  206.8 lbs.

As I mentioned a bit ago 200 pounds has become a bit of a target for me, now it looks like I might be able to hit that target without a ton of trouble.  Of course as I do so, my nice new clothes will start to become baggy instead.  Who would have believed I'd be considering getting rid of the X's on my sizes (honestly getting down to only one X is nice).

Today I ended up doing about 17 miles of biking with people from work (well 14 miles with them, another 3 getting from my house to the bike path and back).  The day was perfect and I was able to keep up with everybody (though fortunately no one was on a pure street bike or racing bike).  What has become a lot of fun for me though is that I regularly have the ability to do these sorts of things without really feeling a ton of after-effects any more.  A 20 mile bike ride used to wipe me out, now I got home and was ready to do more stuff.

Food today:  egg and cheese sandwich (300 calories), piece of toast with peanut butter (200 calories) and a 5 Guy's trip (2000 calories).  Exercise was the bike ride which I'm estimating at about 700 calories.

Today's Results:

Daily Food Total:  2500

Exercise:  700
Points Earned:  1200
Total Points Earned:  41435
Points to go:  158565
