Bike tour

I’m back from my bike tour. I rode 48km to a “nearby” lake - and fully intended on riding the same distance back again. But my knees started hurting so bad, I had to call my cousin to pick me up. I have a history with knee problems (my knee caps are too small and my ligaments are too short), so I wasn’t willing to take any chances. Plus - I wasn’t really able to go further. Really really extreme pain!

So. That makes a 75km bike ride that took me about 4.5h. Well… Next time….

60 lbs weight loss

I weighed myself today. And not only is my weight lower than after giving birth, I also hit the 60lbs mark.

That’s right.

I’ve lost 60lbs or 27kg so far!

Thinking about doing my first before/during-photo…

vespering:

  • you think you know what pain is
  • but really
  • you don’t know what it is until you watch the shittiest movies ever made because of a certain actor in them
New hair colour - which of course is invisible in every picture I take… I swear it looks  amazing!

Enjoying Exercise

Three months ago, when I signed the contract for my gym membership, I was extremely motivated. I knew I was gonna go regularly, train hard and reap the benefits from that. At the sime time, I was afraid I would regret signing a 1,5-year contract - I’m lazy, I give up to easily, I never finish what I start. I saw myself spending about 520 Euros a year on something I don’t use.

I was never an active person. Not even as a kid. I always enjoyed sedentary pasttimes - reading, watching TV, doing jigsaws. I was the kind of person that rather stayed hungry or thirsty than walk down a flight of stairs to the kitchen. I had phases where I liked riding bikes - mainly the four weeks after I got a new one.

I was lazy. There’s no other word for it.

Now? Not so much! I actually LOVE moving my body in other directions than the fridge. I LOVE riding my bike even though it’s 3 months old (and has bruises from my recent accident). I enjoy going for walks with my son or actually do something else than reading on a playground. I go to the gym, regularly. I LIKE going to the gym. Even on the days where I don’t feel like going, I go. Because I now know how amazing and proud I’m going to feel afterwards. I’m sticking with it, even though it has actually not giving me the results I’ve wanted. I know, in the end it will.
