I cant wait for the day when I get down to the lower 200's - Imagine, it will be like tackling the same hills but with a 70lb backpack off my back
- Incentive indeed!
Any tips ?
I don't eat as much pasta as I used to before I started losing weight. Once a week, if that. I still eat some junk, but I make sure I eat it in the middle of a ride or before a ride, not before bed. I don't eat as much junk as I did before the weight loss either. My plateau lasted almost a month, then I started losing weight again and started the ticker you see in my signature.
I don't keep any junk food in the house. I try to stick to healthy foods at home, and drink only water.
