Six Days of Cycling

Today I rode the bike for two hours. I must have pedaled for about 12 kilometers. I started doing this last March 10, 2014. It is almost one week now.

There are still no changes to my body. I still carry a lot of fats around. Anyway, it has just been a week. But I notice that I'm feel more energetic now which is strange, because when I go cycling, my goal is always to to perspire and get tired.

But if you read health journals you will find that this effect is normal if you exercise. You expend energy and yet you will get back more energy.

Now I am asking myself why I haven't done it a couple of years ago.

How I Started Cycling

I tried jogging for health reasons. But whenever I am jogging, I look around at the people I'm passing by and I don't feel comfortable. In my mind I thought they are probably thinking, “lol at the fat guy trying to lose weight and struggling with every stride”.

But when I am on a bike, I don't feel that way. Because it looks like I am doing something. I am riding a bike. And as I pass by I think the people around would just give me a short glance and say, “Oh, it is just a fat guy riding a bike”.

I think my ego can handle that. And that is when I decided that cycling would be my form of exercise.

March 2014

Just like that, we are now at the last month of the first quarter of 2014.  It seems just yesterday when I wrote this New Year's post.

So where am I now?

Uhm. Time moves so fast.  I think I need to run faster.
