desilicious: So I have a question if you do not mind. I was getting into shape and lost about 50 pounds :) problem is before the summer I injured my back and my sciatica is still painful and affect my right leg too. How can I exercise? Should I just start with yoga? I can't go back to running, at least not yet.
Bayside: I cut out all of the "Festive/Holiday" alcohol and add an extra 10-15km to my daily ride. This cuts out an amazing amount of unneeded and unwanted calories a day- plus, the extra calories burnt a day is amazing, during my "outdoors spin class"... :)
desilicious: @rad-dizzle thanks! I have done yoga but never as my full time exercise but I think it's my best bet. I do don't want to get fat again! lol
Sapna: Nice tips
