Why?

My scale wont budge, but it is not supposed to. But people do keep telling me i look better... But they also wonder why i exercise for over three hours a day. In my head i pretend to be a 20 year old man that is training to ride the tour the france, (yes i have a very vivid imagination) but i cant tell them that (*lol*) So i just tell them:

Don't tell me not to live, just sit and putter
Life's candy and the sun's a ball of butter
Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade

Don't tell me not to fly, I simply got to
If someone takes a spill, it's me and not you
Who told you you're allowed to rain on my parade

I'll march my band out, I'll beat my drum
And if I'm fanned out, your turn at bat, sir
At least I didn't fake it, hat, sir
I guess I didn't make it

But whether I'm the rose of sheer perfection
A freckle on the nose of life's complexion
The cinder or the shiny apple of its eye

I gotta fly once, I gotta try once
Only can die once, right, sir
Ooh, life is juicy, juicy and you see
I gotta have my bite, sir

Get ready for me love, cause I'm a "comer"
I simply gotta march, my heart's a drummer
Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade

I'm gonna live and live now
Get what I want, I know how
One roll for the whole shebang
One roll that bell will go clang
Eye on the target and wham!
One shot, one gun shot and bam
Hey Mister Arnstein, here I am!

I'll march my band out, I'll beat my drum
And if I'm fanned out, your turn at bat, sir
At least I didn't fake it, hat, sir
I guess I didn't make it

Get ready for me love, cause I'm a "comer"
I simply gotta march, my heart's a drummer
Nobody, no nobody, is gonna rain on my parade

motto for the day:
Go above and beyond your comfort zone and you will find that you are capable of anything.

friday another challenge: climbing the only mountain in the netherlands: the cauberg (google: https://www.google.nl/maps/place/Cauberg,+6301+Valkenburg/@50.861061,5.823681,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x47c0eaaedc802969:0xc5e19b27e7c4af07) officially it is not even called a mountain but a hill (*lol*)
it is (only) 135m high, and the steepest part is (just) 12% climb.

the whole route is 77km while you go up and down the side of this hill and the surrounding smaller hill (the finish of the amstel gold cup) but i think i will cheat and cut a corner halfway, making the route about 40km. But i expect i be dead when i reach the summit anyways (*lol*)

well lets hope my body is ready and able by friday and the weather is dry!

love maud.

that did not end well...

started yesterday the triatlon.
i felt really bad, but i guessed it must be nerves, so i went anyway, and before i hit the water i already entered the bathroom three times...
swimming went well to my surprise, i did not feel the need to go potty, so i made good time, 30 laps (50m) in about 45 minutes. as soon as i left the water i felt the need to go to the toilet again... wondering if it was still nerves i enetered the spinning-room.
It was all in good fun, spinning with a lot of beginners, so we took it easy... but i felt worse and worse, pain stinging in my side and when i left the bike, i knew i was not ok, and i knew it was not nerves...

in the changeroom i decided not to go on with running. I had been training for this and i knew i could make 4 laps in an hour, but the pain in my side got worse ... it even made me wonder if it was appendix or something...

so i forfeited the event ... with pain in my heart (and my side)

at home it took some time for the pain to go down, but eventually it did, ruling out serious injury like appendix or something. But i did have a fever, and today (lucky for me a restday, so no serious breech in my scedule) i am still ill...

had 80km planned tomorrow, already planned that back to 50, but maybe i will need to take a second restday instead...

motto of the day:
listen to your body ALWAYS!

even if it means forfeiting a game, or rescedule your workout plan!

love all!
Maud.

80/20

80 percent of losing weight you can lose by dieting.
20 percent of training is used to sculpt the final edges.

Today i want to lecture all heavy overweight people that are new to this lifestyle change- journey:
PLEASE do not start with exercise. You will overload your joints, and believe me you are strong enough!!! I had a backpack on the other day with all the weight i had lost, and boy was that heavy! i had lost all that muscle i used those days just to get around!
The best way to start losing weight, is take small steps that work for you. Dont turn it all around trying to live off the land and eat 100 kcals a day. You will not keep that up i promise you!

start using fatsecret and write down everything you eat (or binge). the first week you will lose weight just because you refuse to write things down, you decide not to eat them anyways (*lol*)
then change ONE thing in your diet, preferably the thing that had the most impact on your calories and write everything down again, keep true to yourself and you will lose some weight. Dont expect kilo's!
The third week change ONE thing again. and so on...
after losing 5 kilo's you can slowly start to implement some exercise, but dont overdo this!!! just one hour a week on top of your normal pattern will do...

remember nothing is over untill you stop trying!!!

have a nice day all, and thanks for listening.
maud.
