Finally remembered to have my fiance (BSN) check my blood pressure and it was 116/62. Just 6 months ago it was 145/92 :eek: Resting heart rate went from somewhere in the 80's to 55 as well. I have been hitting the gym pretty hard trying to lose weight and was able to drop 60lbs since december and have put close 1100 miles on the bike since april :D

Sorry, I just felt like bragging a little bit :)

Good job! :) 55 RHR is great! Now wait until you see new veins pop up on your arms and legs. :)

They are already popping out :) Legs are very toned as well.

Now I just gotta get rid of about 10lbs in the mid section...
