I started last week at 238 even, but today I'm at 238.8
I joined the Y for swimming and weight training (and they've got a Jacuzzi and a sauna!), and I've gone back to kickboxing two nights a week in addition to the long rides. Last week I got in 100 miles, but this week, nada so far. 
Tomorrow's my big 45th birthday ride. My goal there is 45 miles.
D*H bought me some new handle covers that have this wide spot for more support (I've got carpal tunnel and both my hands have been going numb). He also taped up the extender bars on the ends of the handlebars with some cushy gel tape. He also gave me a Halo sweat band head cover, some Chamois Butt'r, and a container of GU Brew for electrolyte replenishing.
