Blah... I'm with ya!
You can't let that crap bother you though. Do you know how many people I help out and get nothing in return for? It's all part of the 'game' when it comes to these forums. Just keep on doing your thing. Your impact on this community is noticed.
Also, thanks again for the help with my website..... I'm so happy to finally have it on there.... I was beginning to think I wouldn't be able to do it.
Hope today is better!
A little grouchy never killed anyone... least that's my story and I'm sticking with it 
i'll happily let others grouch along as well...
as my aunt edna used to say -if you can't say anything nice - come sit by me she was a pistol

Hi wishes. I expect you're over the grumps by now. I hope so. Often they have entertainment value to read about but are uncomfortable to live through. There's this starting phase where you can grump around at people and be satisfied with the way they look sideways at you and move aside quickly, but after a while they start to get grumpy back and expect you to move aside quickly ... and stuff. Well that's what happens to me. At least the children will have returned to school now?
I was off wlf for a couple of days but I thought about you. I was wondering about the scales thing. You said you didn't get any cycling in over the weekend, but I had the impression you'd amped it up quite a lot at around the same time that the scales became uncooperative? I suppose you have considered and discarded the idea that it's the old muscle increase thing again?

Oh yeah, i was just grumpy for some reason - call it hormones. Im rarely grumpy anyway so i can accept being grumpy occasionally. And i did edit the profanity out afterwards!
Im liking your auntas my aunt edna used to say -if you can't say anything nice - come sit by me
i had amped it up, thats not related to the grumpy or scales though lol. I amped it up to try and get the scales moving but no luck, i took the easter weekend off apart from the tramping partially because i was busy with other things, but also i wanted to take a holiday and rest. Sleeping in, and spending time with family was the key to easter weekend for me.
My bike also was away for a tuneup but im hopeing to go out very shortly.
I have a 100km race to do in 1.5 weeks. I dont expect a hugely fast time, but ill most definatly set a good goal to try and beat. Since ive never even driven over the terrain and have no idea of the course really other than what a map can give me, it wont be too agressive a goal.
The other 90km race at the end of next month on the other hand i aim to set a fairly hard to reach goal (thats the one im working up to)

My dad always says there will always be something bad coming out of something good... or the other way round... don[t really remember, my dad talks a lot, but you see... because Hubby wasn't home you didn't get wet! I love watching rain from the inside (while drinking hot chocolate ), but not so much cycling through it!
Cheer up, my day sucked pretty badly too... stupid tutor lost my work, and I had handwritten it (first time this year I handwrote anything!!!!) and now I need to redo it, and have no clue what I wrote last time. Some days just suck!
Tomorrow will be better.... or not, but if not, you know you have mastered the art of living in sucky days today, so it can't be too bad!

Yeah you're telling me. I friggen hate it - i was in a good place before! i tried upping it first for some time and no luck, Steve said try lower again so im doing it :O
Well, the idea is there, but in reality i probably wont eat so many lolGood luck from me too. Will you be eating lots of raw veges?
Low fat yogurt and canned spagetti and meat etc is more my mainstay.

I see you're trying to cut back on calories to get rid of the last bit of weight. I know 1200-1500 can be tough. It's what I've been trying to do since I started. You'll be able to up them again though, right? I'm actually curious about that...how do I know when I should increase my own intake?
In any case, hang in there. Your weight loss is so damn inspiring, wishes. You know damn well that you can get there. We're all rooting for ya!

ooops - 1600ish calories - possibly a few more than less in there. Its been a long shit day today.
Pharinet, you increase em when you get closer to your goal
I was going for exercising the last couple kg away but clearly that wasnt working (considering how much exercise i get lol).
anyhoo, developer team lunch crept up on me which is why the excess calories came from - i actually had a 200 calories lunch and ended up eating 700. Just as well dinner was pasta and fairly low.
Supposed to be cycling tomorrow morning - i was gonna go with the 5am crew but i dont think ill be able to get up that early. Ill settle for the 7am bunch instead.

Never go for the 5 am group... that is just too damn early (it makes the rest of us look terrible if you do and that will depress us and make us eat more crap and put on weight, so not going with them will make you help us feel better which will make us lose weight and so you are really doing a favour to humanity by not going that early!!)!!!!!!!
I eat around 1200-1500 and it is doable, some days more than others, but definitley doable! Eat a lot of lettuce! It really helps, you can eat like 2 kg of lettuce and you have only eaten 2 cals!
How much do you really exercise a day? I mean me, as one of the not so active crew, is amazed at almost anybody's exercise regime, but yours sounds gruelling (and inspiring... I need to get out of bed and into the gym... oh wait, pneumonia! That was my excuse for this week!!).
Have a good day (I have been practising my australian and I am almost perfect in saying G'day mate! But I am not sure if that is used in NZ too... so I have not tried it on you yet!), Camy

I get up at 5am every work morning - that's early - and the most amount of activity i can muster is showering, coffee and getting dressed.. - i couldn't imagine getting up and actually having to be active beyond coffee.. i'm not sure whether that's just insane - or totally motivated..
