Read this while searching for triathlon gear. i don't totally agree with it, but it does have it's points: Those Fat People are Delusional. Or Not
In related news, i didn't blog about my workout on Thursday, but i did bike over one mile on campus and then about five miles later that afternoon, and i must admit that my calves are really complaining tonight, and my hamstring is tighter than it has been the past couple of days. You see, there was a headwind both ways on my ride: i kid you not, i was riding against the wind about 3/4 of the time, and the rest of the time it wasn't really blowing. This is why i'm still not sure that i like biking. That and the sore butt. And the loneliness (i don't mind swimming or running alone, but for some reason with biking i do). And the fact that it takes forever and i still go up hills too slowly.
i'm also extremely frustrated that i have yet to lose any weight. Am i always going to weigh more than 200 lbs.? i'm not asking for much, just to fit in size 14W or 16W and go below 200. Yeah, my original goal was lower than that, but i don't think it's possible. My body won't allow it. This is my punishment for not eating enough the summer i lifeguarded and lost enough weight to fit in a size 12. Yep, even when i was thin and fit... i was plus sized. So sue me, i have big bones.

I feel your pain. Try having a body composition ( NOT BMI) test done using skinfolds so you know how many pounds of fat vs. lean you are. The scale doesn't help much.
You are on the right track with the training but frankly, losing weight is all about the food ( darn).
Keep up the good work and do not accept that you were "meant to be" this or that. You are in control of what you will be.
Best,
Ingrid
