My problem is that I love food - so last year I was within 2 pounds of 6 and
a half stone loss, but I have put some on again and am currently 5 and a
half down and quite steady.

I do need to get my head round not snacking for the sake of it though.

I have done that - but it was not part of my day total ride. When I did the
70 miles Easter 2007 I did the other 57 the following day.

As I am at work during the day too it is sometimes difficult. I did the 82
on Sunday, I did 22 on Monday evening then 19 last night. I will not have
any more time until Saturday or Sunday again though.
