Week 5 weight: 349.8
Week 6 weight: 348.8
Weight loss: 1.6
Starting weight: 365.6
Total loss: 16.8
Not a bad week if I do say so myself. The reason I say not bad is because 1 I am catching up to Rachel in total pounds lost and 2 I still lost even though I did not keep track of points. I know part of the problem was I felt lazy all week. I only did 8 miles over the weekend instead of 10+ but part of that was thanks to Kharma. She rolled in deer poop and screwed up the whole day Saturday. Ugh.
This week will be a challange as Saturday we are going to Big Ed’s for breakfast. That place will be tough as I LOVE everything on the menu. But I am going to get 1 or 2 eggs and the sawmill gravy. I am also going to let myself have 2 of their biscuits but that is it, no more!
Bike shopping is going slowly which is fine as I cannot afford the bike till my b-day in June. (Want to donate? I am kidding!!) I thought about going used, but I feel that I would rather buy new. The reason for that is I would rather know what the bike has gone through than take a chance on a used one. Right now my two top bike companies are Diamondback or Trek. They seem to have the best features for the price and have great reviews. If you have a suggestion let me know.
Losing It!

Hey!
I noticed at the park this afternoon that you are looking great! Good for you!!
Oh Dave! You should get in contact with Dwayne Taylor. I think he works at iContact now but last I heard he does a lot of biking to and from work so he probably knows a lot about bikes.
Hi Rachel.
Thanks again for your comment on my blog!
Congratulations on your weight loss so far! Keep it up! 🙂
I love my bike. What a great investment. There is nothing better than going somewhere on your bike in the spring/summer. Ahhh 🙂 I got two shopping panniers with it, I highly recommend them. They can hold so much! Unfortunately I do not know the brand of my bike (it’s in the garage outside) but in general I do not think it matters too much. Just make sure the seat is really comfortable (There are BIG differences) and it has a buffer (don’t know the exact word) so that it dampens the shock when you ride.

Trek bikes are the best. Make sure you go to a real bike store and have them fit you properly with seat height and all that.
I actually have a Schwinn, and love it, but I would get a trek in a heartbeat if I could fork over $500 for one.
