From alpha testing to the QUERCUS 200

All dressed up! Great outfit and you look great in it!
 
Thanks Cate!
Thanks Mystic!
Thanks LaMa!

I spent two days last week at a conference and the 3 days after in Austin with E. I had a great time, but I ate like a pig. 261 this morning. I was at 255 before the long weekend. I'm hoping to get back there quick and then stay on task and get that scale moving in the right direction.

I'm still running and day 300 is just a few days away.
 
Looking stupendous Q. More pics like the last one and I'll have to add a 'G' in front of that. Congrats on being so close to 300. I'm on my second straight day of no beer, so I have a similar streak going. :)
 
Vee I'm on day 2 too! Let's keep that streak going together. Also thanks a lot man!

Neither could I K&D! It started with day 1. I don't think it's for everyone, but anyone determined with a bit of running experience could do it.
 
Hi Q-almost 300 days into your running streak? Awesome! Hope you're successfully back on track with your eating after the pigging out while you were away. I'm glad you didn't mention what you actually ate as it's my fasting day :eek:
 
257.2 this morning which is well below yesterday and 2 above where I've been maintaining.

I'm home with a stomach bug today but I'm hoping it passes by evening so I can do a slow mile.
 
Well this was a list of indiscretions over the course of 5 days so it wasn't like I took two pancake breakfasts and melted cheese on it. I'll have to remember that for next time though.
 
My favorite pancakes (as a child) had raisins in the batter, cheese on top and molasses poured all over them. Nom!
 
Thanks Cate!
That sounds yummy LaMa!

Okay I'm not eating well or running enough miles so here is the plan.

240s by Halloween and 2.5 miles a day average for October.

To make it happen:
Weigh every day
Log every day
No alcohol
No chips
No nuts (unless an ingredient)
No eating after dinner
No sweets

I didn't weigh today but I've been bouncing between 255 and 260.
 
Looks like a solid plan. Have you been tracking total miles as part of your running to date? Kind of wondering if 77.5 miles in October is going to be a big or gradual increase?
 
I would say doable, but not quite gradual. I haven't tracked in a while, but before this slump I was running 4 or 5 5Ks with a couple shorter runs a week. I'll be okay with it.

So day 300 of the runstreak was a 29:25 5K
 
I weighed 285 at the beginning of the runstreak. That's 30 pounds in 300 days or a tenth of a pound a day. I've truly squandered the efforts lately with my diet, but that's the past. I'm firing on all cylinders again and I'll be using nothing but clean full to keep me running that way.
 
Yay for clean fuel! Especially if you´re setting yourself an exercise goal of course. Good luck with trottin´tober :p
 
Thanks LaMa! I've been maintaining my weight for way too long and that needs to change.

So I weighed 254.6 at 26.4% BF this morning. Nearly identical from the last time I measured my weight and bf over a month ago. So it's good that I have not been gaining, but it's time to get things moving again. Since 240s isn't too far off I will reassess my goal on October 1st.
