Mundi - Just to say . .

[andrewleeone]

Thought I'd Share yesterday mornings pic- Because Im taking my health seriously I was out early on the bike for a hearty 4 hours up hill and down dale, as was greeted with this glorious early morning project as a result.

But what I'd really like to do is say thanks to everyone on here - its a very humbling human experience to read, post and share on this forum. There is so much good will and support throughout the whole community. Everyone is so careful with what they say and how they say it. If you are a member who doesn't post then don't be wary of it. I get so much motivation from reading and interacting with others here - I reckon i'm on here more then FB! and actually the people are much more interesting.

I know that without the forum I'd have not have persevered with loosing weight, I would have shied away from exercise and on days like this - Back to work after a bit of a break, tired from a mammoth weekend of different exercises - I'd have probably thought - what the hell, lets have some pasta and a couple of glasses of wine. But no - I'm on here reading your stories - fighting your corners with you and now thinking a glass of refereeing Yorkshire Water and a good salad, oh and perhaps an evening stroll as well - I'll be running again in the morning

You cant have a hungry thought and an interested in people thought at the same time. So you and the forum let me swap the hungry thought for all the people stuff you are so courageous to share - so from a very selfish point of view - Ta Very Much!

Enjoy!

Hi Andrewleonie,

Couldn't of put it better myself, you can't fail to be inspired by all the posts. The sharing and the honesty is fantastic, many a time it has pulled me back from the 'sod it' mode to 'well it's not going to get the better of me'

Very impressed with the cycling, I'm hopeless on a bike, well I was at 7yrs lol and loved the photo, I'm a city girl and lots of grass gives me the hebbies but it looked vey beautiful and peaceful.

Have a good week

😇

Thanks for sharing the pic. I don't have time to take pics while I'm out running but those blue skies are familiar - that feeling of quietness being out in the world while everyone else is missing it because they're all still asleep. I also considered for a moment having a sneaky monday eve wine today. Instead I've had about 3 glasses of water and a load of fresh veg with my dinner. Keeping this forum in mind helps me stick on the right path, Mondays especially as it's so busy!

great post and lovely pic too, one of my wins at the weekend was not having any alcohol, it was becoming a norm to open a bottle of prosecco on Friday and have it on Saturday too. I woke up super early, full of energy on Sunday and had a great day with the family instead of feeling glum and sloth like. so yay to the new lifestyle!
