Dusky Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Nice going, congratulations! Did you made any changes with your eating habits as well? How many days/week you do your ritual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
centerpin_drift Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 right on, good job misfish. another great activity to help get fit is shed hunting, and now is the time of season to be out in the bush putting on the kilometers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted March 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 (edited) Nice going, congratulations! Did you made any changes with your eating habits as well? How many days/week you do your ritual. Veggies friuts porage and turky and chicken and fish. Got hooked on this new whole grain pasta and rice.Great stuff,and has great flavor.The odd time we have red meat.Salty red meat.LOL 3 -4 days a week at the gym for an hour,some days I go 2,depending on the feeling. It,s nice to have the pool right after the work out. Edited March 13, 2009 by misfish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

douG Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 (edited) Sounds like the Canada Food Guide[/url ]to me, misfish. That's a strong workout schedule, prolly the key. Edited March 13, 2009 by douG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeh Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Store bought turkey or the other kind? ,congrats on the weight loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted March 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Did you follow a plan or just start eating those foods Brian? No real plan J. The work out schedule was easy, as I did it way back in my younger days. As for the eating,just started eating more healtier foods and stop eating the deep fried stuff.No batter on the fish,whole grains.Ya know,the good stuff. Healthy fruit and veggie snaks instead of 2 or 3 chocolate bars and a bag of chip. Oh and light beer.LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigeonfisher Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Well, I am down 25lbs this year. I am hitting the gym 6 mornings a week for about a 37 minute workout. I say 37 minutes because that is how long my Jim Rome podcast goes for. Then I cool down for 5 minutes on the bike or the track. I hit the eliptical, bike and treadmill. I will start some weight training when I hit my goal weight. The target is 217, 13lbs to go. The activity target is a mini triathlon in september at the local state park! I need to get in the pool here at some point. I have changed my eating habits some but I still eat! In fact I had a chicken wing buffet and beers on Wednesday night. Over and above weight loss, which is a requirement from my health insurance carrier (to earn a $100 per month discount), I feel 100%!!! I have a ton of energy that I didn't know existed before. If I was to buy new pants today they would be 38's down from 42's in December. Eating habits are a big deal. I do eat smaller portions and a lot more fish. Don't let labels fool you. Know what you are eating. Thanks for thinking of me. Next time I show up at a swill I won't be less of a F F. hahahahahaa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigeonfisher Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Thanks Brian! I go to bed looking forward to my morning workouts now. I have a few good models to follow, yours included. Pretty soon I will start with the mountain biking with a few co-workers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigeonfisher Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 I have met a group at the gym I go to that I rely on to keep me honest. If I am not there they are asking questions. It helps to have a "team". I don't exercise with them. but they are there everyday, like I am. good luck man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a dynamic that I have noticed at gyms over the years.If you go at the same time of day every day you see the same people.Its a bonding thing and they are relying on you to keep them honest also.Miss a few days and you will hear about it when you return.You are in good hands my friend.Congrats on your progress.You too Brian!

Joe Joe, I have a steam every morning with my counterpart from our closest competitor. hahahahhaa. I certainly can't let him see me fail. The steam is something I enjoy, the sweat from the workout and the stuff that hasn't fit me for 10 years now fits. Inspiration is only a mirror away...
