Lifted weights today...

I figured I need to give my thighs a rest today after biking yesterday, so today was weight training for my arms. Followed my Dr's advice and just did as many reps as I could 3 times for each exercise. They're a little tired but I'm feeling good this morning.

I also decided to take the stairs today. I made it up 5 flights to my floor, then realized I had forgotten my ID badge to get in. Fortunately my wife was able to let me in.

Biking, day 1.

Started a new work out regimen today. I've lost about 10 lbs so far but I hate walking with a passion. I used to bike 50 miles a week and was at my skinniest then (I also wasn't eating nearly as often, mostly due to lack of funds), so I figured I would give biking a try again.

I made it 3 miles, which wasn't too bad actually. Legs are a little weak but not too much so, and I feel like I got something out of it. The morning was beautiful, lower 70's, and very pleasant. Since this was the first day out, I didn't know what to expect but now that I have a goal to shoot for, I can try to push it a little further every day and see how much farther I can go.
