I've been nearly a week free of coffee, due to starting invisalign braces, we'll see if I'm able to stay off the juice after I'm done with them.

I drive a truck delivering freight and not all places have forktrucks to lower the freight. I was going to a chiropractor to straighten out my back and he told me hiking was the best form of exercise. If you just walk on the sidewalk you plow ahead. When you carry weight you walk softer minimalizing impact. And with all the twisting and stepping over roots and rocks you keep your backbone flexible. Besides the ground is softer on a trail than a road or sidewalk. I also hurt my back from lifting things I should not have been lifting.

If you are exploring cycling for weight loss at all I highly recommend the book below. http://www.amazon.com/Heft-Wheels-Field-Guide-Doing/dp/1400052408 The author is an English Prof/and now columnist for Bicycling magazine.
