I'm pretty mad at myself.. last summer.. I started riding a mountain bike.. got up to 6 miles a day on it.. drank lots and lots of water... lost 20 freakin' pounds.. I was on a roll. I spent that summer building a deck for our pool.. I was able to work away through 100 degree days and felt freakin' GREAT.

Anyways, I quit at the end of that summer riding the bike.. quickly gained back the 20lbs.

Definitely, it's not fair. You can work out for years and stop and literally within weeks your body will revert back to it's genetic set point..
