Well, maybe I've already crossed that threshold, but I do bike a lot, and swim, and eat pretty well most of the time, and I'm still big, and I'm on blood pressure medication and meds for pre-diabetes. I may have missed the health benefits window, starting so late, but I'm having fun, and on my bike is the only way I can keep up with my much fitter friends and my husband, who wants to enter competitive cycling next spring.
Lph, you've demonstrated over and over what a decent person you are. Your co-worker maybe needs a bit of a nudge to understand the work you put in to look the way you do, but her opinion and need for an easy solution to her self-esteem issues is irrelevent to your ongoing performance. But you know that. Maybe invite her for a weekend ride.
