Weight Loss

Image
At the beginning of November, 2011, I was 'suddenly' 267 pounds, and was ready for change. I had been researching and working on a system of lifestyle changes with the goal of being merely overweight by my next birthday, in June. At 5'10", this meant a goal weight of 202 lbs. I began the first major lifestyle change - quitting cola, and switching to self-brewed ice tea. I began looking into modifying my diet, too. I love to eat, so the challenge was finding low-calorie and convenient replacements for mcdonalds, chick-fil-a, and dunkin donuts.  I learned the calorie counts for all the basic foods I usually ate, and spent a few long shopping trips at the grocery store, looking at the calories of everything. I cut most of the bread out of my diet, most sugars, which meant most processed foods.  No Mayonnaise, there are so many tasty replacements, the richest of which are half the calories. I eat a lot of asparagus, mixed vegetables (corn, peas, beans, carrots)...

Starting to ride

With weight loss comes a desire to improve my overall quality of life. I've been looking to outdoor activities to improve my fitness. I started jogging and running, but it's difficult for someone who is out of shape to begin running. I'm still too big, it's hard on my knees and body. It's also a little tedious.  There's a building. 10 minutes later, there's another building. Carabiner stuck in my derailleur. I got my bike out, and started biking, and found it much easier physically, and more exciting. The scenery rushed towards me at a faster pace.  I got to see more of the city, and from a new perspective. I started biking to the local coffee shop in the morning, and occasionally, to the not so local coffee shop. Bike month came and went, but soon, a week of perfect weather came in, and I decided to bike to work.   I picked out a route, tried to determine how much time I'd need, and doubled it. I got lost, took forever, sweated a bit, an...

Rockwood to Ohiopyle

The final leg of the trip was the easiest. 30 miles, all of it downhill. It was freezing in the morning. Literally, it was 27 degrees. I lollygagged, waiting for the sun to warm things up. Wrote postcards, bought more postcards, wrote those postcards. Had breakfast. Had second breakfast. Finally packed up around noon, and, after a quick stop at the bike shop for a spare chain, headed on. It was barely above 40 by noon, dressing warmly was challenging, but I managed quite well.  Balaclava pulled up just under my nose, just enough space to keep my breath from fogging up my glasses.  This worked quite well, as my breath kept my nose warm. I stopped for lunch at the Lucky Dog in confluence, and then headed on. Soon enough I reached the final section of my ride, a stretch alongside the Y oughiogheny, and soon after that, I made it back to camp.  I set up the tent, lit a campfire, took a shower, cooked dinner, and settled in by the campfire to catch up on the world.
