I weighed myself this morning - 107.5kg!
Omelettes have bread?
Just after starting this thread, when you got batteries in the scales, you were 103.9kg
As I said before, flattish gravel doesn't do much more than conditions your ass. Unless you were going from sofa to doing exercise, which you weren't as an already established rider with a level of bike fitness. Shorter length rides with elevation will be far more beneficial than flat distance.
Get up that Pipeline
Eating less f*cking food
Hot Cross buns are my 3rd favourite Christmas food. There is few better ways to get butter into your body!www.rotorburn.com
A lot of food has been consumed in that time!
How tall are you @Jabubu ?It was a year ago so you'll have grown a bit taller too.
The way I see it, you owe me for one jelly doughnut. Ready... Exercise!

Perhaps we have failed to give @Jabubu the proper motivation.
I usually try and eat early 530-6pm and then go and clean my teeth so hopefully stop me from eating anything else. Works too, most of the time anyway!!View attachment 414268
On a serious note. I need to eat better. I have early dinner with kids then end up snacking on chocolate and any snacks things in the cupboard as hungry later on.
Been out for 2 months, 8kg gains. Can confirm the same rate of weight gain lol.With no riding for 3 months from a wrecked knee ( surgery 4 weeks ago), I put on a cheeky 12 kg.

Jpez's post above struck a cord & Sunday saw me meal prepping for the 1st time in 20 years.
Pretty much the same strategy as Jpez & I'm 2kg less after 2 weeks.
Aiming for 98kg.
Fuck me, that's some serious weight gain.Been out for 2 months, 8kg gains. Can confirm the same rate of weight gain lol.
You don’t need to brag garbage guts ahaha.Fuck me, that's some serious weight gain.
Not being nasty but what do you eat.
I got on the weed for about 3 months and was ramming down bickies and lollies left right and centre and gained about a kilo.
And I forgot the home made apricot pies and pastries
I don't particularly have a very clean diet, but it's pretty high energy. According to my watch I'd average 3200 cals a day (fairly active, riding most days, gym on alternate and/or running). I just ate at the same rate I would maintenance. It was flipping hot and I was in a stinky cast, I just sat there on the couch with full air con. My base calories went from about 2600 per day normal (not focused exercise) to about 2k. But i was eating for a 3.2k cal day.Yeah it's dumb but it is what it is.that's some serious weight gain.

Not eating after dinner time would make a big difference.I don't particularly have a very clean diet, but it's pretty high energy.

Would go something like:
10am - coffee, 2 hardboiled eggs, cake slice (during my injury I couldn't cook or make coffee so it was a full cafe brekky)
1pm - massive lunch, coke
2pm coffee, cake or chocs
4pm - snack of some sort
6pm light dinner with kids, like roast with veg or normal dinner stuff
10pm - get hungry again (usually after workout) and something like instant noodles to kfc bucket lol.
10.30 something sweet to follow - it's my kryptonite.
Yeah plenty to cut, not gonna lie. But I was a miserable sucker and more importantly bored out of my brains.
Yeah thanks. I kind of know what to do, just have to do it now. Cast is off so can at least run/walk/stationary bike to balance it up a bit, but the eating side will have to shift if I want to shift this weight. I used to be able to just do a mega multi day ride to make up the difference but not able to do that now.Seems to work for me.
