Ditto Zen - don't let your cycling be an excuse to overeat. You cannot out ride what you can eat!

I started cycling 3 years ago with 10 lbs left to lose to get to my goal weight. I'm now 25 lbs heavier. Granted, I have some other issues...but I'm living proof that it takes more than just riding to lose weight if you are a natural 'weight fighter'.

That said, I don't think there is an exercise out there as much fun as biking! I've always loved to exercise, so for me to say that biking is the best, means a lot. I saw that you are going to join our July/Aug weight loss check in. That's a start! Schedule your bike rides so that you don't miss them, and start building up those miles. You'll get there!!
