Weighed my self this morning

My wife noticed that my stomach wasn't sticking out as much as it used to. I've tried to stay away from the scale just because I wanted this to be more about my fitness level than me obsessing over every pound I lost.

Well, I went ahead and stood on the scale and guess what, I'm at 203lbs! So that means I've lost about 8lbs since I started back in December. But I think the best thing about this, is that my performance on my bike has jumped.

I recently took 2nd place in a downhill race, something that I never thought I could do. Oh and check this out, I bought some running shoes yesterday and last night, I went jogging!

I actually prefer jogging more because my heart rate got up to 148-150 really quick and I was able to maintain it for a long time. I have trouble getting my HR up over 140 on the spin bike unless I spin super fast, but that doesn't last very long. So for now I think I'm going to take up jogging for at least 30 mins then get on the spin bike for the other 30 mins.
