WOW it's been awhile

I started a facebook page a while back so I stopped posting here but today I was looking at my older posts and noticed all the pictures on here and kind of missed it. I was joking today on fb that I released Mike Mennenoh 2.0 and what I meant was that I went to the doctor a few weeks ago and luckily my cholesterol was good and I don't have diabetes but I'm overweight and have the beginning signs of high blood pressure. Well this wasn't a shock to me I know how I have been living my life the last two years so I look at it as a good thing that the doctor told me what he did. I use to lose weight and work out just for bike racing and then when the season was over I would go back to eating and drinking like shit. Well the 2.0 means that I'm not working out and eating better for a season or a big race. I am working out and eating better for the rest of my life! I just turned 35 and have a very demanding stressful job so I need to have an outlet. I know I don't have time to do much in the months of April-July but I need to start taking advantage of the time I do have. When I was younger and a litte more hungrier for racing I would come home from work jump on the bike and come home shower and eat dinner at 8:00 well now I come home at 8:00 and thats straight from work thats not stopping at the bar or going to the gym thats just how many hours I work in the spring. So I have to take the rest of the winter and get in shape now before spring hits and when it does I will need to be very conscious of how I'm eating and taking time to walk or ride whenever I can. I often tell people how each day we wake up with options on how we can live our lives and thats a beautiful thing. You might fuck up one day but don't get too discouraged because you can always pick yourself back up.
