Last month I set the distance 2 to zero on the 1st and then checked it last night. I rode a total of 145.04 miles in June. I hope to increase that this month. Though, the fact that I’m going to be gone to
In any case the increased activity has really helped my mood. I feel pretty darn good when I ride and get that blood circulating. At the same time my weight has gone from 205 pounds when I began riding again down to 193 today, a nice slow reduction that I think is sustainable. I’m also using the Shangri-la diet that entails taking flavorless calories an hour away from meals. This is supposed to lower the bodies “set point” so that you are not so hungry. That seems to actually work for me, and it doesn't try to turn me into a vegetarian eating no fat or a carnivore eating nothing but animal flesh!

The book Seth Roberts wrote takes a couple of hours to read and the thing is beyond simple.
The only glitch in my life is financial. I am so very broke that it’s quite worrying. This is due to past extravagance and way too much credit and to the lack of a promised raise at the start of the year that I was really counting on to get ahead. Now I’ve been promised a raise in the next few weeks that should help, if it ever happens that is. Otherwise I’m going to find it impossible to continue to juggle debts and things are going to start hitting the floor with a resounding and distressing thud.
