I lost over 21% of my total pre Tx weight and I couldn't afford to loose a pound. I even stopped biking about a month pre Tx and I probably only gained a few pounds. Since my schedule and the BRUTAL winters we suffer in southwest Fl, I usually stop riding in Nov and don't get back on the bike until late April, early May. This non riding season I have relearned the art of gaining weight so this coming bike season will be a difficult start.
