Ok, time to get serious again about getting off my ass and getting fit, and loosing a few more kilos...

And you know why? no, not for looks or because society says I should be thinner... not because I am unhappy with who I am and how I look...

No its because am sick of having to take every new pair of pants or jeans I buy, around to my mothers, and have her shorten the legs so they dont hang too damn long!!! I need to drop a size or two and hopefully avoid that!!! lol

And yeah ok, the fitness/health reasons are important too *S* lol

My butt's sore.....

and stop there! dont start thinking anything like that! (and dont deny it I know you were!!!)

Went out on the bike this evening for an hour... well was on the bike for most of the hour, there was a few points were I got off and walked for a while lol

Bought the bike about 8-9 months ago... actually maybe closer to 12 now... and besides a short 10 minute test ride its sat there gathering dust since... the major issue in the soreness (and it is more than just my backside lol) is that beside that 10 min test ride this is the first time I have ridden a bike in probably 15-20 years or so... and while mentally I will vouch for the validity of the old metaphor/cliche of "it's just like riding a bike, you never forget how", I will also say that be muscles in the backside dont hold up so well over time!!!

But its a good start, the walkings been fine but that doesnt get the heart rate up over a consistent period like the bike did
