Well, I think we can call off the contest portion of this event. We have co-winners Chth & Kitty.
I'm maintaining still. Last time I got on the scale I was at 189, down a few from the time before. The lowest I got, more than a year ago, was 182. My failure to balloon back up north of 200 is largely the result of keeping up my exercise routine:
Tuesdays & Thursdays: Pilates, weights and the stationary bike for 300 calories.
2-3 other days I just do the weights and 500 calories on the stationary bike on the days Lia does pool class.
In between, the puppies like to take me out for a few miles walk at the beach or in the hills.
If I ever decide to try to drop some more weight it won't be hard. I'd just have to give up my many but budgeted treats. I wouldn't ever have to actually get hungry like before. That's the benefit of exercise. But you have to be careful not to just blast away and have a heart attack or get an injury. We don't get in a hole over night and we can't get out of it all at once. You obviously already know that but for anyone thinking of trying this at home...
