My new found joy of biking-cycling!

I am in constant battle with my weight since having babies I just can't seem to get back to my goal weight. Well if we are being honest, I have battled with my weight ever since my parents separated when I was eleven. Food became my friend, and my mom filled the house with really good (bad for you) foods. I have even gone as far as did drugs to lose the weight.

But from it all learned to eat right and exercise. I also try not to eat past seven at night. But I first started with running. I loved pushing myself, I have even done a marathon, and two half marathons. I do the mud run almost every year.

I do love running, but it is hard on my body, and since having kids (and gaining a few lbs) my back seems to have the most issues. My husband has always enjoyed biking, and suggested the other day that we go. The daylight is longer and we take full advantage! We have a girl up the street who comes every Tuesday and Daniel and I have been biking then. It is amazing how strong I feel when biking! I don't hurt the way I do when running. I can push myself and I love to feel accomplished.

So that is why my new found joy is in biking! For me it is good for my body right now, and will help me reach my goal weight! :)
