 This weekend I hit 70 lbs lost:) for some reason I can't figure out how to update my starting weight. The dr office had me 3 lbs heavier than I thought. I am 4 1/2 months out. I rewarded myself with a new bicycle!! I hadn't had a bicycle in years!! For once I am not embarrassed to be seen in public!

 The little rewards along the way are great to have continued motivation.

What sort of bike did you buy? I bought myself a purple Electra Townie last year and I love it, even though riding involves both riding and weight lifting. (darned panniculus)

I bought a red Townie last summer, I love it. Traded in the orange one as it only had 7 speeds.

 I bought a "cruiser". It has a wider seat and reminds me of a vintage style. I LOVE it! For the first time ever I can ride bikes with my kids! If I could figure out how to post pictures I would! Lol

I hadn't been on a bike in 30 years, so I wobbled a lot at first, but it's so much fun! I agree about the flat foot technology. I don't think I could ride a regular bike yet, but I can go a couple of kilimetres on this one.

hell ya, good for you!   Way to reward yourself with something that promotes health instead of adding calories to your diet!
