From a gmail poster, you're stupid to make such a claim. What, you never visited tinyurl.com urls before? What an a.shole you are.

Perhaps a better approach than name calling. True, but some newsreader clients fault if the url is over 80 characters, so I did the newsgroup a favor, I thought. Won't happen again. Diet On! Andy > Cynthia P said... > [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > > Andy Because I choose to use gmail for my email address you feel the need to all me names? Pray tell, why should I trust a person who reacts like that to not have directed us to a malicious web site? Are you not aware of the exploits that involve web sites that then install malicious software onto ones computer? Not to mention the recent episode of a disturbed individual posting links to a site with disgusting photos. I was merely providing a cautionary note. I assure you I am not stupid. And, no I do not visit "tinyurls" from strangers. So what is the url that was so interesting? And why are you so upset? del Del Cecchi said... > And, no I do not visit "tinyurls" from strangers. I was a contributing member back in 2006, I met Beverly in King of Prussia for lunch before a Livestrong bicycle race and rowed with Neal (the chessman) at Marsh Creek state park for a portion of the summer. I'm credible! You could shut off javascript, java, pop-ups and cookies and safely clicked that url. Ya paranoid BUM!!! Andy > Del Cecchi said... > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > I'm credible!

Save it for spammers! BTW, to update you on my progress: Since January 3, 2006, I've lost 143 pounds. I've put back on 20 or so of them since entering the slow season for cycling. Bicycle riding is now my primary exercise, and as the weather returns to 'normal' I'll begin logging 100 mile weeks again and get to 240 or below. I rode a bike for the first time in my life on December 24, 2006. I rode a mile and a half before falling - a mailbox jumped in front of me. By December 30, 2007, I'd ridden 3005 miles. This includes six metric century rides (100K), an imperial century (100 miles), and three multi-day tours. In 2008 I am planning an extended tour of a week, and then in 2009 a cross country trip. I was also voted runner up for "Clydesdale of the Year" on the Clydesdale/Athena board at Bike Forums. (A Clydesdale is a male cyclist over 200 pounds.)

You've come a LONG way. I didn't row at all this past summer. Too hot and humid. It's also a sun condition that kept me off the lake. Now it's too cold to walk. I have an old nordic trak ski machine that I use. I'm pretty clumsy on it until I get the rhythm after a few seconds, it comes and goes every few minutes for a couple steps. I'm since May 28, 2007 @ 247 lbs. (again) to today reduced to 218 lbs. Only November 28 was Type II diabetic diagnosed. Big change in diet from every angle. Good on your cycling. Watch out for the ice spots too!!! Those mailboxes are a known hazard. Ya should've known that! So has your chess rating improved since we last played? I think it was two moves on the lake and it was my move?

I knew it had to be you when I saw the Diet Chuckle of the Day. I always enjoyed them. Sorry to hear about the type II diagnosis. Hope you're able to get control of this problem. I won't be coming to Philly for the Livestrong Ride this year :(. I'm doing a Tour de Cure in Indianapolis in June as my charity ride this year. Our club has one of the annual rides scheduled for the same day as the Livestrong ride this year. I'm still hoping to meet Historian soon. I've offered to host him on his trek across the country on his bike. I see I'll have to wait until next year for this :( But I understand the logistics of putting together such a trip. Some friends and I are in the planning stages of a bike trip around Lake Erie this summer. I can't imagine planning a trip across the US.

A cross country chess game might be fun. Every hundred miles someone would hand Neal a printout of the board for him to study for the next 100 miles to make his move and at that next 100 mile mark, designate his move and send the image back to the Internet. We could all kibitz and agree on our next move. I guess The Historian would have to calculate how many average moves per a normal game divided by distance (taking into account the a.s.d combined IQ) to determine the "study" and "make your move" stretches for the trip. Or, if it has to be determined by his planned stops, but we'd have to pay close attention so he doesn't get lazy waiting for our move and buy a house or something. Forget concentrating on the road, it's against the law to run over a cyclist, last I heard. He'd probably have a move before a mile. He could cell phone in his next move. Give us an edge? Maybe best two out of three games? Historian, chess playing, rowing, cycling BUM!!! I'd fly to his destination with a bottle of champagne (or two) to shake up and wet him down with upon his arrival, no matter, win or losing the chess game(s?). Good to read from you again, too! You're still dieting??? I figured you'd defeated gravity by now. :) Best, Andy <q> wrote in message news:Xns9A313FE40751Dcotd@216.196.97.136... > Beverly said... > You're still dieting???

I'm back in maintenance mode at the moment and trying to keep it under control. It's tougher in the winter months since I'm not out there riding 100+ miles a week:( The indoor trainer is just not the same. Do you still ride?

[quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > Beverly I use the nordic trak ski machine with the arm pulley exercise for a little upper body workout. Both the ski and arm exercises can be individually tensioned to make either workout easier or harder. And it can get painfully hard! I haven't hurt myself yet. The only thing I don't like about it is my Omron pedometer doesn't detect cross country skiing as steps, it's considered gliding and won't work. I dunno. I can get the distance off the readout on the ski screen so I can convert that to steps and import it into the pedometer software that tracks distance, steps, etc. I can enter the exercise in my diet software so it will figure out the calories and fat (g) burned. I've got software to interface with my glucose meter for tracking my diabetes. I just ordered the Omron HEM-790IT blood pressure home unit since it also interfaces with the pedometer software. All with such pretty charts and tables to study. I'm kind of trying to become a doctor without really trying. :) The diet software (DietPower) shows my macro and micronutrients and I can see where I'm missing less than %RDA for vitamins and take separate vitamins to supplement my diet. The one-a-day always overdosed me which is not a good thing, imho. I usually get too much B and Iron from my foods and always way low on calcium, vitamin D and some others so I'll take a 50% RDA supplement of those and leave well enough alone. Also since the exercise burns calories I rarely reach my daily caloric intake. Thanks to diabetes having put a curve in my diet, no wonder I'm losing weight. I'm about 90% doing it right, daily. Yada, yada, yada. Did I mention weighing food for correct portions is a drag??? Damn nutrition labels. Dieting almost feels like exercise. I sure overdosed my reply. Sorry about that! Best, Andy Don't take it personal...Most folks are OK...But as we all know many are not...Why risk it...GG <q> wrote in message news:Xns9A2FC4230F4E9cotd@216.196.97.136... > Cynthia P said... > [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > > Andy |
