Continuing road cycling
those days with less efforts than ever. I mean that there is no more
exertion headaches and shortness of breath. In the beginning of this
year's cycling activity, it was painful. But I was 106 kg. I had to
solve that health issue, consulted with my cardiologist and he said :
you have to lose weight! My heart tests and exams showed nothing not
normal. It was just the damn weight that made me feel like shit and
continuously ruined my cycling efforts. I changed the tactic : began
with the famous 10000 steps a day! Every day! After the past two
months of everyday consistent exercise (even at that low scale) I
managed to lose 5 kilos. Have to admit that I cutted the calories
intake as much as I can. I forgot about the launch at all. Only
fruits, raw fruits as much as I can during the day + a jar of home
made yogurt. Raw ship milk only! Bulgarian Lactobacillus bacteria
is world wide famous and the flavor can be obtained only here in
Bulgaria. It is amazing... Nature!
After that period I did
not stopped trying to cycle. And now, I have no more exertion
headaches, nor shortness of breath at all. Today even managed to
broke my distance record :) . Slowly but steady, begin to improve the
results. I remember the time (almost 5 years ago) when I had no
problems to make 40 km of vicious mountain lap. Here in Sliven ,
Bulgaria, the terrain is so tough that only a few can resist it. Yes,
I was 5 years younger back then, but also 25 kilos less as a body
weight :) . Writing this all first to be able to track my progress
and second, to motivate you to do the same. Because over weigh and
obese can only ruin our lives.
Always remember : No pain – No gain. :) Hope you enjoy the screen shots of my daily activity.
