[QUOTE="YFZRob, post: 1009854, member: 62663"] Patience is sooo key here! My bike was my motivating factor to lose weight. I knew I needed to drop down, but I didn't do enough about it until I bought my RM250. I was 236 and had been slowly getting there since 1997 when I graduated high school at 195. I tried so many things and never could stick to it, until 7 months ago..... I started to count calories. I know it's a pain in the arse, but it WORKS! In years past, I always tried things like low carb, low fat, ect, but never counted calories. I started taking Trim Spa X32 and restricted myself to a 1500 calorie a day diet. I only excercise MAYBE once a week except for about 20 minutes of squats, push ups, and crunches every night during commercials. Well, I instantly lost 15 lbs. I think it only took 3 weeks!!! This was the motivation I needed, especially since excercising is boring as hell to me. The loss slowly tapered and I had a few plateaus, but now 7 months later, I am down to 193! 43 lbs in 7 months still shocks the hell out of me. Now fully suited up, I'm just over 200 lbs on the bike, not too much for the stock suspension to handle, so I see it as saving myself $600+ on suspension. On the negative to it, like someone else mentioned already, I had to buy new riding gear, which sucked, and I think I may need to go down more more size AGAIN on my pants in the near future if I keep losing. I would like to be 195 in all gear, so I figure another 5 or so will get me there. I figured if I lost 40+ lbs my endurance level should rise naturally with it. NO! I get about 3 laps around the local tracks and I'm about to die. SO, I am slowly working into tread mill jogging 1-2 miles and mountain biking 10+ miles a couple times a week. [/QUOTE]
