Wish I Appreciated Being In Shape More When I was Young!

Good morning, everyone!
I am from CT, and this is not my first ride on the weightloss merry go round.
When I was young, I had that childhood everyone jokes about on FaceBook. I grew up in a small(ish) town, and we'd get up, hop on our bikes, and go. And I mean bike everywhere.
Now, many years later, I am back on a bike. Not going nearly as far, and am huffing and puffing the whole way. Ahhh... to be young again!
But a week or so ago I got back on that bike, and although I am hurting in bad areas, have done at least 9 miles every day for the last week. Will likely take a break tomorrow so pain in neck can go away (need to raise my handle bars but need a special part to do so) but think I may bribe my daughter into a family hike so I am not losing out on progress...
Hope to make some great friendships!
