LMo,
Perhaps your ex-husband's comments have led you to be extra sensitive about your weight? I know that I had an ex-fiance who was always critical of me. It took me a long time to counteract that damage.

A 103 mile bike ride is an absolutely amazing feat! I am so in awe.

When you find yourself thinking those negative thoughts, yell to yourself in your head "STOP!", and then remmind yourself of all your healthy habits. And of your other good qualities.

You are a complete and whole person, and your weight does not matter a whit to us. My goodness, you are a hero for accomplishing that ride!
