oooo I can relate to this so much. I've been biking every day for over a year - up some pretty steep hills, 9km a day for my work commute. Stopped buying bus passes. I haven't lost any weight XD

But I know I look better - my friends tell me (I think it is hard for people to see themselves accurately in the mirror). I also love feeling strong, my legs have muscle. My thighs have substance. It still continues to amaze me, I've never been athletic either.

And now I drink all the beer I want guilt-free. Bike-life is a good life.
