Hi, great story thanks or posting. I have 80lbs to lose and have just taken up cycling, its great but currently tiring but your story has given me hope that i too can get up to serious miles per week. Thanks again and well done!!0

That is awesome!!! I started out weighing 280 lbs at my MAX, and i did the same as you...Started by cutting out sweets/soda/ fast food. Then I bought a bike at BIG 5 on sale, and started cycling. I was doing it every weekend. My boyfriend at the time had me start out riding about 15 miles every Sat/Sun and i noticed the lbs DROPPING off. I now weigh 100 lbs less, thanks to just riding my bike and eating healthier!!!! Still in the process of losing weight, but it was a great jumpstart for me.0

Wow, that is inspiring!! My favorite part is that you have found a new passion in cycling. 40 is young, and how fabulous that you have paved the road to enjoy your next decade as a healthy person. Kudos!!0

I liked reading your post... My situation is similar to your's and made my resolution at the first of this year. On Jan 3rd I started on MFP at 240, in two weeks, I've lost 13 pounds.I am also into cycling, but gave it up last year do to the fact I couldn't keep up with the other riders in my group. Although I've exercised and cycled regularly in the past (in spurts) I never watched what I ate and never really lost any weight. Holding myself accountable for what I eat has made a huge difference in a very short amount of time.
I'm hoping that when the weather warms a bit, I can start cycling again regularly and actually keep up!
Thanks for the inspiration and congrats on the weight loss!0 -

Reading that makes me wanna pick up cycling all over again! Used to night cycle much when I was in my late teens/early 20s - back then it was pretty much a 'mode of transport' for me & a few friends. We'd take our bicycles and meet up somewhere for supper & hang out like 1/2 the night before heading home. That stopped when I went back to school, got a job after (so no more late nights for me)... etc. etc. I kinda miss those times & quite often I wish I still have my bicycle.
Mhmm... that's it, it's on my to-get list now
Thanks for sharing the story !0 -

I really fancy cycling, its the other road users that scare me! Did you go off road or not? x0 -
