So, it's been a long time since I posted

Oct 19, 2009

OK, it's been months.  I am hovering between 205 and 210, and it kills me at times that I cannot kick it into gear any more.  But in reality, I feel great.  A couple weeks ago I completed the Seacoast Century bike ride in MA, NH and ME.  100 miles on a bike (that's where my avitar pic came from).  I have done the ride before, but this was the fastest I have ever been.  Having a sexy new sub 17 pound carbon fiber bike didn't hurt either! That was my gift to myself for achieving my weight loss.

Is is scary though how the eating habits creep back.  I hope that 5 years from now I am still happy with my choice.  Right now, I would do it again in a moment, but I do need to commit to making last changes to my behavior.  The honeymoon phase is over for me, and I still struggle to eat properly.  But my health is great, my back doesn't hurt anymore, I am medication free, and my doctor can't believe my BP is 117/70, without meds! 

Oh well, that's a brief update for today.  Maybe another one in six more months!
