Food = fuel = results!

Today is bike day and weigh in day. The weigh in didnt go well. I put on a pound, that has something to do with the night out Friday, Communion Party Saturday and the BBQ sunday. People say "Hey you have burned the calories" but the truth is you still have keep an eye on the intake.

So that was the downside. Here is the upside. A spectacular bike ride! I havent cycled that fast in a long time. I was annoyed at not having an average of 16 mph. Then I realized I hadnt had a 15.9 this year! So the milage increases are going well and fuelling the body does lead to better results. This is good to know as I drop my calories again. I even went 15mph up a hill I usually only manage 7 to 10 at.

Days like this are the reason I enjoy biking.

A not on heart rate: I noticed it stayed low on the big ride and went up today. Today I woke up in pain at 4am. I think my CPAP may be the cause. So no sleep = higher heart rate.
