I felt fairly fit after riding to Paris and most of the way back. I managed to knacker my knee though. What's a good form of exercise that encourages weight loss but won't cause my knee to shatter?

Some might say swimming. But I have to say when my knee was playing up. The resistance of the water irritated it further. Could be Worth a try though.

I'm on a weight loss drive before I go to Ventoux in 3 weeks. Lost 3kg in a month, but
couple more would be good, would get me down to 76kg.
Still fatter than Tom though.Not stopping at Chalet Reynard then?

Stopping is cheating. Everyone knows that.

Refuelling would have hit a better note I agree.

Currently on 65.5kg and yet I still have a small but visible pot belly. Very puzzled by that. Will lose another couple of pounds and then return to serious strength training. see if it changes.

Still fatter than Tom though.I left for Provence weighing ~76.5 and came back (post Ventoux) at 78.5.
Magnets, I expect.

1 week till my race season starts and I'm still 1.5kg off target weight, have got a handle in things in the last week, hopefully the extra fear factor will help keep me focused and away from beer!

I gained about 2kg after Belgium last weekend.
Steak and beer are probably more likely culprits in this case, though.

Dammit, what's your 'summer'/target weight at the moment?

My parents have been over to visit. So no training, and loads of junk Food.
My season kicks off in 2 weeks. I really need to drop weight.
May have to quit beer for a month. :(

Holiday is in 4 weeks so determined to try and lost some of the off/middle aged spread.
Signed up for MyFitnessPal to try and get to understand these things called "calories" but the biggie is I've quite beer and bread for the next 4 weeks
It is a shame as I love both beer and bread. Its been 48 hours so far and not doing too badly.

Abstaining from food, or at least booze.
Regular walking.

I hate exam season. I can never keep good weight control.
I have no idea what I am but I've managed One turbo session this week. And haven't been for a run in a week. I last actually rode my bike on Thursday. -

Visiting a mate who is teaching english in Turkey, mid July. Gives me 2 months to get as fit as possible. Doable I think but definitely need to watch the weekend binge drinkathon..was so hungover last sunday ended up missing the gym and having a nandos and an XXL papa johns. I've lived in my flat for 2 years and it was our first pizza delivery. Quite enjoyed it actually.
Now playing 5s twice a week, will be on the bike more as it's dry(er), so final piece is just to be more disciplined in terms of diet/fuelling.
