in Fitness and Exercise
Hey everyone, just looking for some exercise friends. Started MFP.. idk when lol, but when I did I bought a cheap $80 bike from walmart to ride since I despise running. I went from 174 lbs to 155 in two months of watching my calories and riding every day. Then I loved riding so much, that I went and got a very nice Trek alpha 1.1 road bike... I'm hooked! Met a lot of friends to ride with in real life, that are also very prominent riders on MFP. Looking for more MFP friends!

I slacked for two months and got back up to 180, then over the summer I stuck to it again and got back down to 154... but then I started slacking again. Luckily, I caught myself at 162 lbs this time! But i'm back to riding every day, and logging all my food. Going to try to get down to around 155 again (to be honest I don't care about my weight, but it's a good indicator of what I want to lose - BF%) and then I'm going to start tracking my BF% from there =).

If you're a frequent road bike rider, feel free to add me! Always like comments from / commenting to other riders. Thanks!,

-Luke
