This is fascinating . . . 'cuz here's my story.

Recently diagnosed with AD/HD about 2 years ago . . . checked out the DSM and I had every dang symptom! It's not nonsense -- AD/HD is real, and my life would have been a lot easier if somebody had said something to me before I was 31.

Just started working with a coach about three months ago -- like some of you skeptics, I also thought all of this meds and coaching stuff was silly . . . but I had to get over myself -- it all has made a huge difference.

Anyway, this guy asks me what I want to work on . . . while I felt like I was "supposed" to talk about work and finishing my thesis . . . I ended up telling him that I was getting chunky and couldn't get up the energy to work out more than once a week . . . I was also bummed that I couldn't see more of NYC, where I live, to justify my crazy-ass rent.

So he says -- immediately -- "Get a bike! Going to the gym, you have to find your clothes and your lock and all that repetition -- it's boring -- on a bike, you can just jump on it and go!"

The guy's a genius . . . he's the reason I'm here today. Even though it's cold, I've been riding all the time. I rode from Harlem to Battery Park and back on Thursday, and I felt great -- my body was happy and my mind was calm . . . I've seen parts of Manhattan I never saw before . . . and I've lost 7 pounds!

If TV and traffic cause or exacerbate the ADD . . . the bike is a definite solution!
