Okay, I'm happy about the weight coming off this week. I think alot of the weight was water weight but at the same time I don't think I have been eating very healthy this week. I've always eaten breakfast and a good supper but probably drank too much coffee inbetween to keep me going. I paid the price last night. I was looking forward to a 25-30 mile bike ride in the evening but when I started out with a couple of friends I realized I wasn't feeling good. Hard to explain but pain in the kidney areas and nausea. I was hoping to "ride it off" but instead my friends were kind enough to suggest a couple of shorter loop rides. So after the first loop of 14 miles I decided I better listen to my body and go home and let the others continue. I'm feeling better today but am a little worried about the MS Bike Ride. High humidity, heat index of 100, and south winds gusting to 30 mph are in the forecast. I will listen to my body and if I only do the 75 mile - or even 50 mile ride - as opposed to getting a century ride in, I WILL NOT BEAT MYSELF UP ABOUT IT! Anyway, it will be wonderful to have 2 days of biking for such a worthy cause. Can't wait to get my hug from Anna - a lady the same age as me who lives with MS and cheers us on from her power wheelchair. This ride puts LIFE back into perspective for me. My ailments are nothing!
