    Latter is the one I thought of. But the actual correct way would be pronounce it as "me-e" in my language. This Romanian voice example is the closest example (Wiktionary)

    Spent embarrassingly long time on picking the name, as all the nicknames I've been using were available. Decided that I wanted something short, and that sounds nice in English when proncouned by anglos (So I think!), it also gives a hint where I live.

    Good job! This depends on the pace and cadence you are doing. Consider getting a heart rate monitor to record your sessions, and check the calorie loss after that. But it doesn't sound too far...

    Good job!

    I don’t know if I trust the machine telling me I’m burning ~1,000 cals on my 40 miles,

    This depends on the pace and cadence you are doing. Consider getting a heart rate monitor to record your sessions, and check the calorie loss after that. But it doesn't sound too far off.

    For me, thanks to intermittent fasting I was able to drop 10kg in 4 months. My starting weight last year was 90kg too, but when I started to do fasting it was 87kg, and now I'm 74kg (and still dropping). Intermittent fasting helped me to develop more healthier relationship with food and consider the I/O of my body, such as if I haven't done any exercise during the day do I really need that oven pizza or sugary goods in the evening?

    On top of this I started to cycle more actively and I'm aiming for doing 150km-200km total of cycling per week. However, I need to start do some weight lifting as I'm lacking on that department. However, I've been doing daily push-ups and sit-ups for 6 months now, to develop a routine.
