Chad, that's awesome man. I haven't seen you since RTTC so I might not recognize you.

That a boy, I should have my blood work in by next week and I'll post it up as well. I'd post a picture of my physique but I don't want anybody going limp wristed on me around this place.

How about blood pressure?
Bad cholesterol?
Resting heart beat per minute?

I already had good stats on the rest, though I was disappointed that my blood pressure and resting heart rate didn't improve. Going off memory since I don't have the info at my finger tips right now I think bad cholesterol was 118, resting heart rate 74 and BP 110/80.

Ran a trail 5k today with lots of hills. Ran a 24:11. Not my fastest but trail running a lot more challenging. Won 1st in my age group and 8 th overall. Winning time was 19 and change by a young wipper snapper

Geez Chad, I didn't think you had that much weight to give up.

Does the weight loss have any affect on the LDL and triclycerides? What does the doctor think?

Mine from last month:

BP 107/68
RHR 66
HDL 109
LDL 36
Triglycerides 52

I put on four pounds so that's the focus now. Travelling for work is not conducive to daily exercise.

Oh, and stop teasing us with threats of photos Todd

Anecdotal blood pressure comment for me - I have been on meds for high BP for the last ten (plus) years but have been off them for the last two months. Weight definitely made a difference and there was (or more correctly is) a tipping point for me. I'm about 3/4 of the way to my goal for the year but have been on a plateau that I haven't been able to break through for the last two or three weeks. Frustrating but I think that I can break through it with a more concerted effort. I have two weeks before heading back to Trinidad so it's going to be now or never to get there by the end of the year.

I agree with Carl - travelling is not conductive...
