Do you really care what number day it is...just enjoy the post

I knew it would eventually happen. I realized that I am simply not drinking enough water. Plain and simple. I never intended for it to happen mind you. I load up all day at work. I know I am going to ride the bike that afternoon and I want to be prepared. My downfall is that I have never trained myself to drink water while I am exercising and it caught up with me. Wednesday I rode longer than usually and it was pretty humid…reflect back on the crashing incident. Anyways, Wednesday I was so tired. I couldn’t seem to get enough to drink and I was lethargic. My mind wanted to exercise and my muscles were not havin’ it. So, I started power drinking the water. Fortunately Crystal Light has a hydration on-the-go packet. I am drinking those today to see if I can re-hydrate. All in all that seems to be working because today I am not so tired and the energy is coming back. Another thought I was having, reflecting really. I have purchased all these books to learn how to pedal, and corner. What equipment I need, want and can wait for. I have learned a lot, but the one thing I have learned is that over training could be a killer, well that and if you are fat lose some damn weight because it is easier to ride when your ass isn’t a sidecar. So, I typed up my own 12-week beginner training plan. I won’t be riding every day. I will have days off. Mon-Wed-Fri and Sat and Sun. I will be on the bike, although I am thinking of ditching the Sunday bike ride in lieu of weight training, or maybe just for a relaxation day, at least for the first month. Tues-Thurs I will be “working on my fitness” to quote Fergie. I need to get a little muscle on this carcass if I intend to make any progress. Last but not least I have joined the Weight Watchers online program. I do not have time for meetings with all the other stuff I have to do every day, but I can do it online and in my iPhone. This way I can make sure I eat enough and drink enough. Yes, Carol Anne you have to eat to lose, which is good because I love eating. Still no beer, but that is ok. I am sure there will be plenty of time after the fact, but do I really need it. Survey says…NO. I promise I will add a couple of picture now and then so that you will no if I am actually doing what I am saying. Actually who am I talking to. I think I like to believe that others are reading my little journey. I guess if I think I am accountable I will keep pushing forward.
