@Laura C- glad you find it helpful! Yep, small steps. Always small steps. Three boxes three times a week, with space for 4-5 (to account for stuff coming up) sounds like a great start.

I put it on my list with 3 boxes for 3 times a week, then I put 4-5 time on my plan. It’s only for 20 minutes at a time so that I can’t tell myself I don’t have time. I do feel resistance at first, but you can do anything for 20 minutes. After writing, it whets my appetite, like you said. It changes from being nervous or avoidant to looking forward to it. Small wins for the win

@Kersti – I will admit that having my husband deal with the bike rack and loading the bikes would be a major plus of having him along – aside from any romantic aspect…

I also think that we can ride the bike whenever we feel like it whether the ride is in or out of the city.

My husband and I enjoy doing that in the summer, and the bonus is that he is there to attach the bike rack and load them up.
