Good luck to you wondermonkey - I'll be rooting for you. This year is hopefully gonna be my comeback year. I started
out on the road to recovery 3 years ago at 352 lbs. Quit drinking plus low carb diet and biking got me down to 217 but
3 weeks of bronchitis last july got me back up to 239. That scared me and I got serious on Jan 2 started strict food plan and riding schedule.
Now Im at 219 and my riding is good. My goal is to break 200 by May 9 (my 3rd recovery birthday) and 162 sometime this year.

Good luck to all of us on achieving our goals.
