I think its working

Thursday night, the good wife and I went on a 12 mile mountain bike ride. She's been running 4-6 miles a couple times a week, so that means she is super shape. Me on the other hand...well not so good. I was injured for about 4 weeks, that meant no riding. So when I finally got on the bike, I had a tough time on the trail. Lungs were burning, legs were cramping...and I loved it!

This morning I woke up and weighed myself to see how my weight loss progress was going. I'm happy to report that I've lost 4lbs this week! Not bad for the first 5 days.

I'll officially weight myself on Monday and see what the scale says. But right now I'm pretty encouraged.

I even made some good decisions too. For example, today the office is making Fajitas...since I don't eat meat, I decided to opt out. But I also wanted to contribute, just so I'm not made to be the odd man out. Anyhow, I went to the grocery store to get a dessert. I saw a Pecan pie and thought this was great choice...but I love Pecan Pies...so I piked an Apple Pie instead. That way I know I wouldn't eat since I'm not a huge fan of apples...

Tomorrow is scheduled to have a nice 2-3 hour long bike ride, then a funeral. Let's see how well I do with all that climbing. I'm sure I'll do well since I'm 4lbs lighter!
