Default I Lost Weight!!

I'm currently below 160 lbs for the first time in 2-3 years.

I feel great. The bike seems to like it as well. You got any idea how much ca$h 'Zuki spends trying to lose 15 pounds of weight on one of their bikes? A LOT!!

I lost the weight by simply eating less and walking on a treadmill for 15-30 minutes a night. That coupled with the light workouts (with weights) that I've been doing has been eating up more calories than I have been consuming, so the result is weight loss.

I included that last part because I seem to be surrounded by people that think calories don't matter . . . they say it's the amount of salt/fat/carbs that you eat that makes the difference. Uh . . . they're all still struggling to lose weight while they inform me of the salt/fat/carb content of my 400 calorie lunch. I always smile and say, "Yeah, this is probably going to kill me."
