  • Thanks for the advice, much appreciated. I do have 10 presets on my bike for cardio & weight loss. I think I will start with those & change it up each day. It is amazing how in 1 short week my legs feel like steel beams compared to weak rubber bands they were.

  • Welcome! I am new here too & the people are great. I just started a week ago with a simple stationary bike. I was down in the dumps too but once I commited to a schedule of 30-60 min. a day it is amazing what 1 little week has done.

  • You have just gotten past the hardest step, being honest with yourself!!!! I enjoy the same things & over time they have taken their toll also. I started riding an excercice bike just 1 week ago for a mere 30 min. after work & started logging in what I eat every day. I realized I can have a calorie deficit & still enjoy…
