Get on your bike

So I've lost 16 pounds through eating less and cutting down on 'unhealthy' foods but not a lot of exercise. Working full time and having two children I find it hard to fit in exercise so I've bought an exercise bike. The plan is to use it in the morning and evening to help shift the weight quicker. Wish me luck!

That's great! Are you going to listen to music or watch tv? I find some fast tunes really help, Deezer has some good playlists which I used as a starting point. Good luck

Yes in front of the TV is the plan. When I used to go to the gym I found music really helped so I might do that sometimes. It depends what's on the TV. Last night I cycled whilst watching biggest loser USA lol 😀

Good luck Claire!

When I first started exercising, it was an exercise bike that I used and I ended up travelling hundreds of virtual kilometers on it, before it fell apart! :)

I am using my exercise bike. Watching TV at the same time. Tend to do it just before my daily shower so I'm not gross. When we get our new shower fitted, I'll be able to get a couple of cycles each day. Good luck!

Hi

I bought an exercise bike two weeks ago and since starting 3 weeks ago have lost 8 1/2 pounds I get on it for 30 mins a day plus take my greyhounds over the park for a 45 mins walk and a couple of times a week I walk to town and back 45 mins in all so good luck with your bike
