Re: Proper Exersize

Weight Watchers system works also, by assigning points to foods and finding your point limit you can eat anything you want.

I can't speak for anybody else, but I'd ride it. Putting it together yourself, I'm sure, adds a nice degree of satisfaction.

I have noticed the fat tire bikes on the few trips I make to Wally-World, but I can't remember even looking at their price. Just standard single-speed bikes, but for a guy my size, I think the big tires would be a bonus. ;-)
Walmart has them for $219 free shipping, https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mongoose-Dol ... k/55456516

Re: Proper Exersize

I'm retired, my doctor wanted me to get off the couch. I purchased a "fat tire bicycle", just clocked 6,000 miles. Blood pressure is good and keeping my weight down. I ride at least 5 miles a day, have had the bike 44 months. It's better on your knees than walking. I've met a lot of nice neighbor's while riding and I do have a riding buddy.
