I decided to try and get to 185, so I rejoined the program. We use myfitnesspal.com (free to sign up and use) to log our meals, and keep track of nutritional balance issues. It's the most I've lost and the longest I've kept it off. I'm 68 and try to ride about 100 miles a week. Before and after pics attached.
