Nice ride along with that fiber you're getting in the last picture. I thought the last picture was of the tree, are you making the pumpkin cookies?

With all the weight you lost, 203 is nothing.
Got the first batch in the oven now. Our oven always takes longer to bake stuff. Are these supposed to come out fluffy and soft or bake them harder?

20 minutes per batch. They are like super soft fluff bread.
Very good with the frosting.
Thanks for sharing. My oldest really like them too.

I missed this post, they're a soft cookie! ;em My weight has been around 206.8 but this morning it was 205 so tomorrow we'll have some pasta with some steaks.
 
Got in 11 miles on a nite ride tonight. Rain was starting on the way back in, and got steady just after getting in the truck. Per the usual, about half of the crowd went for street tacos after the ride, only fitting for a Tuesday evening.

Trucks lined up at the Mexican joint. There were about 10-12 of us that went out for tacos.

Came home to a chilly rainy evening and lit a low fire and poured a Broken Barrel Small Batch before bed.

204.4 this morning, will that big cheat I did last night add more weight by tomorrow morning or will I be under 204, time will tell.
 
Switched from hands on the bench push ups to feet on the bench push ups.
Yesterday I cleaned 20 at each (6) bench and did one lap around the trail 3.5 mi.

Today I did 25 inverted push ups on the first lap and then tried the normal 35 hands on the bench pushups for the second lap. Wow! Those 150 “feet up” took it out of me. In lap two, I only got my 35 in at the first 4. At 5 & 6, I only could do 15ea. As in, literally couldn’t lift my body anymore. Feet up are brutal.
Last week I was doing 35 ea at 12 benches for a fairly easy 420 hands on the bench and 7 miles. Inverted gets my core a whole different way too.

Not that I've lost a lot of weight this year but years back when I hit 232, I started buying some work pants with a 38 waist. After working in the Brook today, the pants I usually wear were wet so I grabbed the size 38 waist pants when I was getting ready to go outside and put in some wood, I should've used the suspenders.
