It is Sunday night. It has been over six weeks since I posted my very optimistic goals for weight loss. I have only covered 179 miles in the saddle and dropped only six pounds. With only four weeks between me and Rock Hill, I do not believe that my 200 lb weight goal will be achieved. There is always the wishful thought that the fat is really melting away and massive amounts of muscle are taking its place.  Hey, it could happen.  I have covered most of these miles with the little ones in tow.  That has to count for someting.  I am not discouraged.  I will survive 2008 Bike MS.  If you are intrested in the route, it is posted on MapMyRide.com.

On September 27 & 28 of 2008 I will ride in the North Carolina (South Carolina) , Bike MS 2008.  This will be my first cuntury in the hills.  As an over weight rider I am afraid. The time has come to make a change.  I have set a new goal and this ride will set the time limit.  Maybe a little humiliation and peer preasure will help.  On Monday July 14th I weighed in at 226 lbs.  I hate to admit it, but it is the truth.  My goal is to ride my bike on September 27, 2008 from Rock Hill to Greenville at a weight less than 200 lbs.  I’ll try to post my weight each Monday along with the miles biked the previous week.  If any one is intrested in riding, you can join our team at http://main.nationalmssociety.org/goto/jamie_s.  This ride is for a great cause and in the past it has been a pleasure to participate in.
