One of the best sports that I have always enjoyed both participating in and watching is cycling.  So when I decided that I wanted to lose some weight, naturally I wanted to do it on my bike.

I’ve been cycling in and out of work, which is about 2.5 miles eachway three times a week for the last few weeks, but wanted to stretch myself and see where my limit was.

Yesterday me and my dad decided to cycle along the rochdale canal from close to manchester to hebden bridge in west yorkshire.  It’s about 25 miles eachway.

I did it, I completed it whilst enduring temperatures of close to 30 degrees.  The good news was that not once did i feel out of breath.  Infact my body was giving up long before my heart and lungs were.  I finished it very dehydrated and burnt but felt really pleased to have done it.

weight loss since start of july = half a stone

Right, that’s it! From next week I am going to put myself on a weight-loss regime. I know I can do it, I have done it before with great results. I’m fed up with having a spare tractor tyre around my mid section and boobs that Pamela Anderson would be jealous of!! I will lose weight and I know that if I keep my progress on here, in the public domain, then I will have that motivation as well.

I will at some point put either an extra thingy on the sidebar showing my progress, or make an extra page for it. However, I do it, I will have it on here and I will leave it here for people to see and comment on. I won’t hide a thing.

This weekend will be the start of July and I want to see a significant change by the beginning of September. I am not giving myself a target. I just know that I want to lose pounds and inches, so I will be keeping a record of those exact things on here. How much I weigh and how fat my waist is!!

I may even do a before and after picture, but haven’t decided on that just yet!!
