First Day's Victory!

[Mr. Bloom]

Thanks Lisa, it's true...but progress has slowed...in part by design and in part because I don't walk fine lines well.

In addition, on Friday, I managed a 14 mile ride with Silver averaging 15mph.

I lost way too much, too fast, so I'm trying to go back to the 1lb/week plan

After a weird week before last, I've lost some of my discipline, but I'll be back on track tomorrow.

Yes well I've been on a plateau for a while myself. But at least I'm not gaining anything back!
I lost my 22 pounds at the rate of about 1/2 pound a week average- slow but steady is really what you want- it shows you've made a LIFESTYLE change.

I'm right here with you two. I am down 42lbs w/ 15 to 20 to go. I've stalled out but am taking solace in the fact I haven't gained any back. The plan is to hold steady til the weather breaks and resume activities out of doors. I swear I can feel my weight shifting around on my body since I stopped riding regularly.

Lifestyle change is what it is all about. No doubt. Thing is, this time last year I was doing cardio 6days a week religiously. Knee injury knocked me down to 3x a week and the fear of pain has me skittish about doing more.

Spent last evening scouring through a couple of local bike route books, planning to spend the spring attacking the listed rides one by one.

Winter never seemed to last so long until I got my road bike
