I started riding so that I could firm up my big backside AND so that I could get out of the house alone. I lost weight initially, then gained some back, probably cuz I started lifting weights. What I did gain was muscle. I started measuring my arms, thighs, etc. While my weight seemed high, everything was smaller!

Muscle weighs more than fat and it looks 100% BETTER on you.

I keep track of my food and exersize.

I noticed I eat way too much saturated fat, so when I started watching the intake of sat. fat I started loosing weight. I"m loosing about 2 lbs a week, which is safe. I'm not starving either.


My advice is to join WW, I think it works best, cuz you do get to eat the foods you like, just in moderation.
