Making Progress

The good news is that I'm making good progress. I'm out on the bike 5-6 days a week, and the weight is definitely coming off. However, its a lot slower then I was expecting. I'm eating well, proper amounts of proper food, and getting lots of exercise in. I was expecting a bit more progress to be honest, I only lost 1 pound at this mornings weigh in. Perhaps its a consequence of getting older? Who knows. I'm not too concerned, at least its weight off, and not on.

In the meantime, I've been persuaded to sign up for this by my neighbour. Its not until next May, so plenty of time to build the base and endurance on the bike. Hes just come back from climbing a few hill in France, those of you who are cyclists will know that means he fairly fit. So I'm not expecting to keep up with him, but its nice to have a goal to aim at. I need to find a couple of shorter ones before May as part of the training build up.

Hopefully the weight will start to drop off a bit faster, although I am noticing it in a few areas, I'd like verification by jumping on the scales each Monday morning and see more then a pound a week reduction.

Ever onwards........
