ftfy. It's all about attitude, I think.
A lot of the advice out there is to sit and spin a low gear on hills and avoid going into the red, but that's never had much value for me. Intentionally attacking every hill out of the saddle with a gear that makes it a challenge, now that's what whipped me into shape in a hurry and got me to enjoy hills. YMMV. Congrats on the weight loss, too.
