I seem to have picked up an extra pound. I did 30 minutes on the bike today. I didn't work up as much of a sweat today. I think Monday I will step it up to level 2 or 3 to see what effect that has. I am anticipating a slight weight gain next week with the holidays and all. The current goal is to start using the elipticals in three weeks. I am getting used to working out more and I think that the switch will bring some good gains in the workouts.
