11 mph (avg) is the best I can do right now. It's going to be awhile before I can get to 15-16 mph.

I don't know if I was sweating or not, it was raining, but I sure was breathing hard.

A motorcycle cop pointed his radar gun at me and smiled, which was a nice ego boost, then I took a tumble at a busy intersection and scraped my knee, which was a real ego bust, so I'm back in balance

I hadn't really been caring about gluten for about a month.

Man, did it mess me up.

My skin, my bloat, my fatigue.

Cut it out 2 days ago and feeling loads better. Bloat almost gone.

Guess I just can't have it. BUT DAMNIT! I MISS BREAD!

Thanks ITW - I'm going to try again tomorrow. I've had a bad right knee for a long time. I think it might be because I was born with a deformed left foot, so I rely too much on my right side. Whenever I do squats or lunges I can hear my knee popping and grinding. I've been taking ibuprofen, and I'm feeling better today.

I have been working out (for the first time in my life) for the past few weeks, having lost a load of weight first, must say I am loving it, I have a programme to work to, which my instructor has just increased it's about 1 and half hours a mix between cardiac and strength work. I have also stopped smoking this is day 4 I have never felt better, I am a big chap 4 foot 3 and very well built broad shoulders and all that, but I have never made the most of it till now

2012 is proving to be a quite a year for me,

Today:

Family bike ride for 90 minutes and then a nature hike for 75 minutes.

It was AWESOME!

I can't really do to much right now but after this baby comes out i do plan on doing a bit more excersize like using the ab circle pro along with taebo, a bit of yoga, walking, using the treadmill, and hopefully hiking later on.
