Hello Again
Well I haven't been on here in a long time and I just thought it was time to come back. For those who know I feel out of the clydesdale classification last year and I was so happy about it then...winter came and along with it came some serious depression issues which I have seemed to have finally overcome, hence I'm back on here. I got down to 195lbs last year as of June 17th, my birthday, but shortly after that I began to have issues and the gut started to grow again. I then peaked out in February all the way up to 252Lbs before I finally gained control again. I am back down to 220lbs as of today and I need to get more off as I'm doing a ride from the Yukon to Alaska in June the 18th to be exact the day after I turn 40....yikes!! It's good to be back and I look forward to reading and adding posts once again.

Welcome back, youcoming. The road doesn't always take us forward. Sometimes ya gotta double back, and we don't always know why.
