I will be taking up biking. No if’s, and’s or but’s about it. I’ve already looked up bikes online at various stores like Wal-Mart and Target; I don’t need anything expensive, just something to get me around, and plan on going this weekend when I get paid. Hopefully, I’ll have enough money left over after bills and saved up from assignments to make the purchase. I’ve already started planning out bike rides using mapmyride.com which is a site my friend uses to map his bike rides. I figured I’d start with 1-2 miles and work my way up. The hard part for me won’t be the exercise – I think once I start doing it and getting out, I’ll enjoy it – but it will be the eating and changing habits. You know they say old habits die hard and I’m getting ready to find that out. I’m just proud of myself for not giving into to taking pills like Fastin or shelling out hundreds of dollars for weight loss help at the Metabolic Center like I originally (thought I) wanted too. I want to do this the natural, healthy way by eating healthy, changing my lifestyle and exercising. It also helps when you read blogs like Caity and get a daily dose of yummy looking recipes that you know are healthy; I may have to try some of them out even though I am not going to go Vegan!
