It’s about 8:30 in the evening as I sit here writing this post. The Stage 4 replay of the Tour de France is on TV and I can’t wait to see the finish [again]. You see, I already watched it on Eurosport at work this morning (don’t tell my boss!). The finish was so good though that I had to watch it again tonight.

Thought I would take a few minutes and give everyone a little feedback on my riding and weight loss. I haven’t been updating you and feel that it’s something I should be doing more of. Plus it’ll get me into a habit of posting more since I am really sucking in that area. For this first feedback I’m going to start two weeks back and bring you up to speed through today.

Binge eating on the weekends can wreck your weight loss strategy faster than my daughters can tap out a text message. And they’re fast. I love the weekend but no schedules to keep, no meetings, and no commute spell disaster for my healthy eating plan.

The last couple of weeks have seen me have Saturday shop rides at both ends of the spectrum. Good and bad. I detailed in on of my recent posts about how awesome of a ride I had Saturday before last. The ride this past Saturday wasn’t nearly as awesome. In fact, it downright sucked for a few miles. The stats at the end of the ride told the real story though.

Saturday saw me return to the local shop I’ve been riding with for group rides. I hadn’t given the ride too much thought throughout the week but it turned out being Awesome with a capital A. That’s why I capitalized it if you didn’t notice.

With my century attempt behind me, I took about a week off the bike to rest up but it’s time to get started again. This gives me the perfect opportunity to start a interval training program I’ve been wanting to do for a while that’s specifically put together to help people, like me, who need to lose a lot of weight.
