Hello Nancy - Welcome!

Thank you so much for bumping this post. It is exactly what I need to see. Thank you Banks for your commitment and research you do for all of us on MFP. You are very wise!

I was out of town for the weekend with out my bike. I ended the week at 70 miles. I hope to do a bit better this week. I will try for my 100 miles per week again. Happy cycling all!

Nike Free's are very light and pack much easier than my Saucony's... http://www.nike.com/nikefree/

That is wonderful! Congrats:drinker:

Very good! Good job getting the entire family involved!

lleanak - Strep is awful glad you are back in the saddle so quickly. I rode to work today 12.5 each way. I felt sluggish getting there. I flew home though! stschulz - I to have 1000 calories yet to eat (from exercise) I am doing my best but will probably only get 300 in. I just was not hungry today....

I made my goal last week and on track for this week. Sunday I rode 29 miles Monday Ran Tuesday 25 miles I will get in 100 miles this week again.

That is frieghtening! I use soy protein in smoothies all the time. I suppose I need to start digging for more info on this. Would love to hear if any MFP's folks know anything more about this....

Hello! I didn't get a ride in today. I did swim though. I am doing a tri on 19 July. I have been getting my base training in the last couple months. Now I actually have to get back into detailed work outs. Really have to work on my swimming! I have 90 miles in this week on bike. I will do a long ride (30 miles) tomorrow!…

I usually just have an Activia for my morning snack. I will start to sub that with a PB sandwich see how I do with that. I am such a creature of habit, always eating the same old thing.:yawn: I will try this Nutella and hope I don't eat it all in one sitting! Sounds fab! BTW got in 25 miles today!

OMG I just licked my computer! That looks so delicious. Sorry I can't help with how many calories it has though....

I struggle eating all my calories when I go for a long ride. I feel like I am stuffing my self! I am trying to find different options to eat. I seem to eat the same things over and over. I also need to stay with healthy foods. I do have a problem of seeing I have an additional 1000 calories to eat and going for cake! Does…

Good Morning - I didn't get to ride to work yesterday (or ride at all for the matter) thunderstorms rolled in early afternoon so I drove to work. I can stand riding in the rain, the lightning scares me though. :ohwell: I am packing up now for my bike ride in, the skies are cloudy but I am trusting the weather reports…

I do apoligize for the wrong information. :blushing: Thank you for explaining to me! Great info.

Anaerobic is when you are working out above your maximum heart rate. Very high intensity which you should not be able to stay at for a long period of time. This is not weight lifting :happy: A good balance is the cardio for at least 30 minutes 5 days a week and weight lifting 2/3 day per week. Of course you have to do what…

I ate two of them today.....I can't be trusted with them...:grumble:

I love cycling! I get out there and ride and clear my head. I have a Trek 2300 road bike that I've had for several years. Don't know what I would do with out it. I saw your post abut getting a road bike. I Perhaps you can go to a few different bike shops and test ride a few different types of bikes to get a feel for what…

Count me in too, I ride to work at least 3 days a week weather permitting. It is 12.5 each way. I also get out for my long ride on the weekends. I will ride at least 100 miles each week. Thanks for starting this.

I haven't been able to find them in my area. I am dying to try them though. I am going to Michigan this weekend I will have to search there as well. I bought the Hungry Girl cook book and she uses them alot.

WOW what a wonderful post. Thank you for this positivity! I do try to live each day making positive choices, some days I have to start over. It is so easy for me to get caught up in any negativity around me. I feel so light when I am not strugging with negativity!
