84 pounds down and below 300

[blacktee92675 120]

What a great journey. I've dropped 84 pounds since late January. My surgery was on March 9th. I've worked my way up to >250 miles per week on my bike. I rode 81 miles last Saturday. Tomorrow will be the first day to ride on the road bike that I rode 6 years ago when I regularly rode 300 miles each week. I still have about 120 lbs to goal, but this feels good!

Cloths are interesting. I've taken the last few months off work, which for me is a suit and tie gig. I'm looking at going back to work in June, and now have the issue of buying new suits. We went to dinner at a friends house tonight - most of my cloths just fall off and are useless to me.

Thanks to everyone for your support! You all rock!

What a wonderful story to read on Friday morning. So happy for you, the weight loss is awsome. You

are truly an inspiration to us all.

Congratulations, great job!!! So what kind of bike seat do you have? Even my soft sofa hurts my scrawny butt. Keep up the good work!!!

@Rogoful - until today I've been riding a Catrike Expedition. It's a recumbent trike. Very fun to ride and easy on the back and seat. They say the weight limit is 275lbs, but I can tell you it handles about 400lbs.

Today I'm on my road bike, and after 40 miles my backside is hurting. ????
