20 mile cycle ride and 3 hours in the garden.

Well today I did a 20 mile cycle which burned 1380 kcals then a few hours later helped my family member with his garden which I spent 3 hours in ripping 2 stumps out as well as cutting down the trees and processing it ready to be burned.

Took a bit of digging and we all chipped in and got the job done.

I accidentally invited myself to do some more work next weekend which I think he is happy with. Fingers crossed the weather hold out at this time of year.

I am going to relax and have a bath before my Sunday roast. See you all next week 😊😊😊

1 snack today.... a apple 🍎

4 slices of bread with soup for lunch

6am breakfast with cornflakes 2 bowls worth.

Equals a priceless and active day. 😜

Bloody hell! You must be saddle sore! How long did the cycle ride take?

And you diggercise probably burns loads of cals too. No wonder you had such a great weight loss πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Hi Silverspeed, hows the cycling going, or are you still trying to win the battle in the garden. I would welcome the chance to keep in touch with fellow cycling enthusiast who are also fighting the battle of the bulge.
