A Great Ride


Today we decided to load the bikes in the car and ride Jordan Parkway. It was a great ride, with a cool breeze and steady declines and inclines. This time Talan rode on the back with me and kept me going, with a cute "Go faster, mommy!" We then treated ourselved to IHOP with an eggwhite garden scramble and Talan had a pancake...his favorite. It's amazing at how much energy exercise gives you. You would think, logically, that one might be more tire. But I find myself very motivated to get things done!

The struggle continues





We have been at it for 3 weeks. Cody lost another pound and I lost 2.4 this week. Cody has gone down a notch on his belt! I feel like we are on the right track. We are keeping up with the Biggest Loser, however, our workouts are very different. We appreciate all of the support we get those around us! Everyone is very concerned and conscious as we enjoy dinners with family and friends. Mom and Dad are doing awesome as well. Steph found some new recipes and is plugging along with her journey. Matt and Tay report that Jaymi has some workout videos and they do them as well! Sandy & Sarah are great supports as we have stocked our work cabinets with healthy, low point snacks! However they are both at 11 pound weight losses...I will get there eventually! We decided to pull down the bikes. We have been on them a few times this summer, but then they seem to end up back up when we clean the garage. We rode for an hour, it is great to do this with Cody! He is the best cheerleader!
