One more milestone hit today. They’re coming more slowly, now.
My current weight by the scale is 151 lbs, which is exactly one pound over goal weight. Woot!
I have officially lost 55% of my starting weight. That is more than every contestant on Biggest Loser except Danny who won Season 8 by losing 55.58% of his starting weight as of this past December.
By the time I’m done I will likely exceed his loss, because in order to get my average weight to 150 I will have to drop below that and bounce around between 145 and 155. 55.58% of my starting weight is 149.07 lbs. And 145 would be 56.79% of my starting weight.
The kayak rolling is coming along fairly nicely. 3 more pool sessions left. I’m working on the flatwater drills suggested in the Bombproof Roll book. Video here.
Last night I did two spinning classes with a weight lifting session in between to see if I could. I could.
Total calorie burn from exercise = 452 + 116 + 535 = 1103.
The second spinning class was a lot of work – my muscles were telling me about it and I was sweating so hard it felt like I was under water. But I did it, and burned over 500 calories according to the HR monitor, so it’s good. And I need to start doing endurance things to get myself used to going for as long as that triathlon in July is going to take…
