Lately I have noticed that I gained weight. My favourite pair of jeans were very tight, instead of loose. My face rounded. My stomach was not so flat as earlier. I was aware that I gotta do something about this. I didn’t want this to get worst. Nonetheless, I already knew that I would not be able to give up good food. I love food and I actually believe that my life with no tasty meals will not be quite happy. I cannot be on diet. I simply can’t. Therefore, I was aware that instead of diet, I gotta to focus on something else – doing sport.
However, it was not such an easy decision. I didn’t really know what kind of sport would be best for me. I was playing volleyball and basketball when I was younger, but I didn’t love it. Now, I was hoping to find something I would love so every training could be a real pleasure, not a commitment. I was hoping to get inspired by one of my friends or family members. Most of them were doing some sports. Consequently, I believed it would be easy to choose something for me.

A lot of of my friends like running. I need to admit that I am pretty jealous when I was watching them finishing marathons. However, it might look a little too tiring for me. I like watching people running, but when I try to run myself, this is not so funny anymore. I did that this week and I just knew that I would not love it.
My close friend was trying to encourage me for swimming. I know how to swim. I was swimming a lot when I was a teenager. However, I think that I might be a bit too old for this already. I certainly, don’t mean swimming. Nevertheless, all of those things strictly connected with it – you gotta dry your hair after swimming, you have to take your time to go and come back from the swimming pool as it is not located in many district. I know this might sound like exaggerating, but I simply felt I have to keep on searching for something else.
Thereafter, when I was still looking for an inspiration, I noticed an ordinary man on custom fixie bike. I really loved this! It was so amazing and trendy. I made up my mind to give this a try. At first I hired a bike for a weekend, simply to make sure that would be a sport I would like to do on a regular basis. When it turned out that I love this activity, I decided to buy my ladies city bike. I became so passionate about this sport, that I not just lost weight, by also was able to convince my my partner to buy one of these trendy mens city bike too. These days, often we do some trips around the city on our bikes. We are completely fit couple!
