Started from the bottom now we're here.

Forward is the direction we go...

I walked 3 miles yesterday afternoon while my daughter rode along with me on her bicycle, my calories were @1862 total and 1 gallon of green tea and more than a gallon of H2O went down the hatch. I am feeling pretty good the last couple weeks and while walking is not my favorite form of activity I am enjoying the time with the little one. Last night around 7:30 I heard "Dad, can we go for a ride on our bikes" how could I resist that? since I have not bee riding my bike was not set up with lights and being so close to sunset I had to have them so we took a few minutes to get out and by the time we were riding it was getting dark outside. 

The ride was short (for me) but that's what I need right now until I get my legs back a bit and we did a few miles just around the neighborhood, it was fun. I walked in the door to a counter top full of banana muffins and zucchini bread that wify had been making and had a banana muffin to finish off my calories for the night. Over all I would say things are on track and I am getting some good time in with the kiddos as well as getting my arse back out there and putting some miles behind me.

Aiming to be back at 305 pounds but more importantly I am aiming to just get back to feeling healthy. 

Thats all I got for today.

  1. Great job! I am glad you were able to get in some kid and workout time. I am amazed at how much water you can drink! I drink my 3 water bottles a day and half the time I pee constantly. lol

  5. Your doing great! Keep walking and riding every day. I could never drink that much water or tea in one day. Keep up the hard work and never say never.

  6. I am happy reading your story. I love biking too, I never consider it as an exercise tool, in fact loving it while enjoying the scenic view. One of the most unforgettable experienced was biking with my sons. Its a healthy family bonding.

  7. Riding a bike is probably one of the most fun things to do with the kids and as a bonus it keeps you healthy and fit. Would recommend biking to anybody who wants to listen.
