Saying Goodbye to the Old Me

Marcus bought a pretty good scale recently. Turns out my old scale was off by 15 pounds...and not in my favor. My metabolism is already slowing down with the reduced food intake (I'm going into starvation mode, I guess) and I've gained weight this week. Marcus and I went for our first bike ride of the season. My poor butt hurts! My goal is to ride from 2nd & Potomac to Chatfiled by the end of the summer (Marcus thinks it's about 20 miles one way). Every week I'm going to get a little farther until I make it. By Christmas of next year (2007), I'm going to have lost 140 pounds—a whole person—the old me.
