OK so...I cut down on my bike riding because I was going so hard that my legs/quads were hurting pretty bad each time I wanted to push hard. I am now riding 3 or 4 days a week and been doing it for the past month or two, I really push myself on those days though but I have been eating out a lot not junk but eating too much I believe.I have been socializing too much on the weekends honestly. I also took a vacation to the east coast beaches and really ate a lot while down there with no excercise. I need to get back on track really bad. In about a month from now I have a really challenging weekend bike ride that includes a lot of climbing and If I want to perform good and not suffer too much pedaling up them long and steep hills I need to drop a few pounds. I really want to go down to 175 by october 10th and I know I need to be very drastic and really put my mind into it. I need a good and fast start so I am gonna do the protein shake challenge starting today. Will be replacing every single meal with a 200 calories protein shake. Total of 5 meals and will leave another 200 calories to spare with my hydration\electrolyte drinks and energy shots when riding my bike. The goal is to consume no more than 1200 calories a day. I am very determined to do this at least for the next 7 days and if I see good results will continue for the second week. I hope to be able to stick to it. Wish me LUCK.
