I have only 15 more pounds to lose... it seems that adding a new activity on top of the walking I already do should make that a breeze.
I started a gradual loss when I cleaned my diet and started walking the dogs. But once I started riding regularly, the pounds poured off. I like to powerwalk, Im not a big runner, and I enjoy hiking, but the bike is what does it for me. These days, I eat like a horse to maintain. It's a pleasant change!
