    The Good News and the Very, Very Bad News

    If Mariott is union, then yes, you have to work a certain number of hours to qualify. Sorry this is happening to you. I hope you get it worked out. If I had that kind of cash, I would give it to you!! I refinanced my house to get this surgery. We had a lot of equity in it and I am soooo glad we did. My hubby told me the other night, it was the best money we have EVER spent!!!! 1800 dollars is a lot less than coming up with the 13,000- 20,000 it would cost self pay. Do some research. Contact a someone who deals with labor laws. Good luck to you!!!!

    Has anyone taken up Bycyling?

    I looked at the slide show again and I showed my hubby. He thinks it looks like a blast too!!!!! The one in Boulder, CO is on the 16th of August I think. Man do I want to go. If I had only known sooner, I could have planned it!!!!! I did contact them and asked if they were planning on have one closer to Idaho, like maybe Salt Lake City, but they said not in the immediate future...sooooooooooooooooo, that sucks..... I went over my season goal last night......I was super pumped and we high-fived at the exact time of hitting it!!!! Now I am over my goal, I guess I will quit riding....... JUST KIDDING!!!!!!

    Well, heres the update with the seat. I tilted it forward a little and it was great last night. I went 33 miles and it didn't hurt. Tonight is the test. If I can do it two nights in a row, that it is the real test. HP, I SEE YOUR NAME SIGNED ON HERE, BUT YOU ARE NOT TALKING....WHAT IS GOING ON??????????????????????????? C, that is great that you are going back to school too. WOW, there will be a lot of busy people around here!!! I am graduating in December with an Associates and will take my national exam in January to be a Certified Medical Assistant. I am soooooo excited and really can't wait!!! BG, thats pretty cold with no blanket.....you might want to make a list next time...hahahahaha...put blanket first.....

    AHHHHH!!! 9 lbs on vacation

    Awe, bless your heart!!!! It always hurts to gain back some of the weight we have lost, but KNOW THAT IT STOPS HERE!!! This is not like the rest of the diets you have been on. You will be back on track now, and the gain stops here. It is not the end of your weight loss, and it would be, if this were just another diet, but thank goodness, its not. SO, now, you can take a deep breath, pat yourself on the back, and say "good job" its only nine pounds and not the 50 or so that is would end up being in the old days!!!

    Fat loss trouble shoot

    Well, you used to have to weigh everything on the more popular diets, but don't have to nowadays. There is probably something to that!!!

    Help, my cut near my port opened up!

    Sorry no one responded. Maybe they were all asleep as they were reading!!! I am also glad it was ok. Good luck to you!!
  8. I agree with the others, BUT, know that it IS possible to get stuck from a pill getting stuck. Or another thing I have done, is eat and then an hour later take my pills, well, sometimes all the food is not out of the pouch and I get stuck from that too. Just be careful when taking pills.

    TG, you are about the same stats as mine. I started at 305... I looked up the saddle at www.spiderflex.com and it looks comfy but I don't know anything about it. I have never heard of it. Maybe someone on here has, but I don't think any has one either.... We usually like talk about anyting new or unusual that we get or have....good luck with it. I talked to the LBS today about my saddle too. I got a new one a bit back and it is bothering me again. He said to try to adjust the tilt. I have had it dead level, so I put it a little tipped down in the front to see if that helps. I bought a messenger bag today to carry books and things for school this semester. I am committed now, it cost $80.00!!!!! But it is a good one and it is going to work out just great I think.

    Has anyone taken up Bycyling?

    I think I would!!!! I will be working next year, so I don't see why I couldn't come!!!! We could plan our family vacation around it. We don't mind camping either!! I guess it all depends on if I could get time off to do it or not...but I definitely would love to do it!!!!!!!! That would be even better if the four of us did it!!!
