Just by going on a bike ride by myself yesterday, controlling my calories (even though it was fast food), and walking with my husband, I feel like I'm back on track. The second I feel like I'm being successful, I'm motivated to do more and I LOVE it!
The plan for today is to do 18 miles by myself (for a total of 20 with my work commute) and 10 with the hubby later. I think that 20 is going to be my minimum that I want to go by myself so that even if the hubby gets home late, I'll still have gone a good amount.
After I got home from riding yesterday, I was ready to turn right back around and do it all over again. It's so funny how something that used to exhaust me now invigorates me!
I have an appointment today, but I'm hoping to be home by 4 so I can get in my 18 miles by about 5:30ish. Hoping the hubby will be home by 6:00 so I can get right back on my bike.
It's so exciting to see how much progress I'm making according to my little chart. I've got 60 miles until I'm already at my March goal! So cool that I was way below my February goal, and now I'll be well above my March goal! Crazy that I'll have ridden more in 2 months than I did all last year too!
Sidenote: I had Jack in the Box a few nights ago, and when I put in the calories from what was a regular meal I would have eaten back in the day, it was 3,500 calories. Funny because then MFP said if I ate like that every day, I've be 175.2 in 5 weeks. So I was probably eating between 3,000-4,000 calories a DAY! Gross!
