At least with the order, I had the time and privacy to pick their bones out of my teeth.

I've never been terribly overweight, but was headed that way about 10 years ago. The only diet
that's ever worked for me was the "mountain biking" diet. I lost 20 pounds the first couple months
of riding, and kept it off for years. I have put on a few pounds as I've gotten into my 40s, I'm
still way under what I weighed in my mid-30s. Its good stuff.

Hello Gwen,

Welcome to the group. Have fun on that bike!

Hi. My name is Shawn and I've been chocolate free for one week. Went OTB last Sun. and tweaked my
shoulder a bit. I wonder if I was 40 lbs lighter if I wouldn't have damaged it at all. Welcome to
mountain biking!

Cheers, Shawn

Oh, I don't know. I've been mostly lurking on this group for a few months now and I'd say the women
who post here are reasonably well balanced (opinions wise as for other definitions I'll defer
opinion). And my wife's balance on the trail is quite good. ;-)

Cheers, Shawn

Gosh. That's a pretty fast changeover to arguing, even for USENET.

To Penny: Hi, Penny. I noticed you when I spent some time lurking in the group.

To whoever said Atkins looked like a 'hell' of a diet to be on. It's not to me, but, I like meat and
dairy, and vegetables.

To the guy who said his wife had good balance on the trail -- I appreciated the humor of that
comment, I just lost the message all the mudslinging.

Sadly, I *don't* (have good balance, at least for riding). I just sort of putter along, and as soon
as I notice *anyone* coming up behind, I'm off the trail to let them pass.

I'm not really confident in what I'm doing. I'm hoping the more I go out and ride, the more that
will improve.

In the meantime, I brake down all the steep hills that go 'down', walk all the steep hills that go
'up', and practice changing gears on the flat parts.

How do you do it? I've been able to give up all the starchy foods easily. No more 'candy' (other
than chocolate). I even gave up soda (which given that I work in IT is a minor miracle all it's
own). But, I just can't kick the chocolate.

you have to start somewhere... give yourself credit for just getting out there and doing it.

Some folks learn by doing; I myself like to disscet and analyze a skill and then go try and do it.
More miles = more confidence. Do you have any one to ride with? Tagging along with folks better than
you is a great way to learn and grow as a rider.

Riding. It does more for my head than chocolate. I eat chocolate to "feel good" (what can I say, I'm
a light weight when it comes to mood altering substances) or when bored. Getting back into riding
has helped with both of these. The problem I had for several months was breaking the habit of eating
chocolate, done mostly by keeping it out of the house-out of reach for the instant fix. The kids and
wife don't like this, but it's worked. Actually turned down a cookie the other day- little victories
(god, that sounds so AA)!

Wow, that's great. I try to ride three times a week for at least an hour and a half, either
on my mountain bike, or on my recumbent. We have a nice loop of multi-use paved trails and
we're close to a rails-to-trails gravel trail that spans the state, so even when it's too
muddy to ride off road, unless it's flat out pouring (in which case, I say screw it, and
settle in with a book), I have no excuse for not getting out anyway.

I eat chocolate every now and then. But I only eat good chocolate. Semi-sweet, bittersweet,
dark. It's no hardship to pass up cheap milk chocolate any more. The candy rack at the
checkout lane is generally not a problem. Educate your palate, indulge when the opportunity
to try something really fine presents itself.

Absolutely.

Fair warning... Sooner or later, everybody goes over the bars at least once. I think it's
happened to me...(thinking...) maybe 4 or 5(?) times in 6 years, with maybe double that
number of near misses. And I'm really careful.

As long as you're having fun, don't be too bothered about the skill. That comes eventually with
practice whether you like it or not.
