Fellow Biking Friends!
I've recently gotten into biking and I just love it! A couple of years ago I participated in an organized ride and made it 20 miles.

Have you met in person any of your MFP friends?
A friend and I joined this site around the same time, so of all the friends I've made here, there's only one I actually know in person. What's your story? Did you join with a friend? Have you ever meet in person any new friends that you've made on MFP?

Struggling with the Winter Blahs
Hi everyone! I am in need of some motivation! I was on a roll and lost 20 lbs. Well, I gained 4 of those pesky pounds back over the holidays. The holidays are over and I've lost 1 of those 4 pounds. I can't seem to get back on track. It's winter and I'm indulging in the hearty, comfort food that is just so delicious. I'm…
