The wedding is over and it was absolutely beautiful. I chose the green dress and I loved it BUT.... I got zero pictures in it. Don't know what I was thinking. So stupid.
It was super hot that day - 36 Cs or 97 F. I had antiperspirants over my entire body!!
But it was lovely and we had a great little vacation getaway to wine country.
Now we are back for a few weeks and then plan for our 100km or 62 mile ride to Sooke, BC. I'm not overly concerned about the ride as it's fairly flat terrain and our ebikes should get us there without having to charge but I am concerned about my buttocks! I will purchase a pair of padded bike shorts to help with the cushion.
I'm hoping my peloton rides will help my endurance and allow me to turn off the motor on my bike and ride without assist. We will see.
A little update on the Peloton. Do I still love it? I do.... I started a strength training program as well but with vacation etc, I get interrupted doing it so I will wait until our vacation is over to pick it up again. You have to do it on certain days or you don't get credit for it so I'll wait until my days are free once again.
My weight is still the same - 180 but I have drastically reduced carbohydrates again and limited my wine consumption so I hope to see that number start to drop in the near future. We had two friends in the last month have big scares. Our friend Bobby, had a stroke. This was his 3rd one and it's a bad one. He's been in the hospital for over a month and is not yet ready to move to the therapy ward. He lost the ability to swallow so he is on a feeding tube and has a trach. So hard to watch a friend go through this. Bobby is 52.
And then another friend had a massive heart attack a few weeks ago. She had 5 stints placed in her and is back home recovering. She is 51.
Just gotta take better care of ourselves. More activity and less crappy food! I really want to be around for my kids' weddings (should that happen) and hopefully one day grandbabies!
My oldest stepson had a spontaneous wedding a few weeks ago, and it was outside, and very hot! I do not like outdoor events in the heat. What is your username on the Peloton app? I have the app until February but only have maybe 2 friends added.
ReplyDeleteThat's scary about your two friends. I am becoming more and more aware of the health problems I am causing by not losing this weight, and it's sobering, to say the least.
