    hey!! Checking that out it is about 5 hours 45 min from me....BUT would be so worth it. I am doing some checking with my 14 year olds basketball schedule and she leaves for camp the day after, so if I can find some place for her to be, it may just work out.......I will leave the kids at home...LOL

    Recumbant Bike

    oh, ok....I guess I did not realize it was an indoor bike. We love to ride. I started riding a single speed bike at 335lbs last April. I rode all last season with a Trek hybrid bike, and this season upgraded to a road bike with mountain bike handelbars. It was great getting back out. I swore I would be so tired when I went for my rides at my old weight...doing 4-5 miles a night was a killer...and hardly ever got above 7-8 miles an hour. I am happy to say this season is allot better. I hope you have lots of luck When is your surgery?

    Recumbant Bike

    HELLO...i AM ASSUMING THAT YOU HAVE NOT HAD YOUR SURGERY YET??? It took me about 2 weeks (full 2 weeks) to get my energy level back to be able to walk short distances up our road. But, once that was getting easier, than back on my bike I went. We live in a very hilly area, so that type of bike would not work for me. I do know someone who has one, and it looks like great fun. I am very proud of you for getting it together and getting on it. That is the hardest part. Even though you are on a bike closer to the ground, please make sure you buy a helmet......Always be safe.... Best of luck Traci

    well, hello my fellow bikers........ I have been out of the loop all week. My mom went in for a 45 min surgery that ended up taking 2 hours. She was supposed to be there just overnight, we ended up there 2 days. So, finally thursday evening we got her home and setteled, and I wetn back home and went back too work yesterday!! So, it has been crazy as ever and no biking all week. Managed to maintain the weight all week even without exercising, but it was very hard for me to eat good when I was not at home. TX....LOVE the pictures of the ride.....all the people...WOW!!!!! I am sorry about your band and the ordeal you are dealing with..........but you are right this will be a good chance to see how much you have actually made this work......:cry_smile: Everyone else on here.....HELLLOOOOOOOO and welcome our newest biker on here as well.....my name is Traci but they call me HP Short for hoosierpoms....(I raise Poms) Hoping to get in some riding this weekend....so keeping fingers crossed

I think the being tired part was allot of me after surgery too.....it will get better. As far as the tummy.......you are making good choices....making sure you have something with Protein should fill you up some.....To this day, ,my stomach does the grumbling, and I cant eat anymore...LOL It is a TRICK!

    turler, how are you feeling today?? I hope you are taking it easy, but making sure you walk.....:biggrin: It is cold here today. Not any riding but we did some cleaning of the yard and cleaning of the cars....So, I guess that will count. I had a NSV today and am soooo happy! Last year....a size 30/32 was a pant size that I was all too familar with. This consignment shop bought some after market items from MAcy's and had a big sale. I bought pants in size 18 and another in a 20! I was soooooo freakin hyped about it. I cant tell you the last time I saw that!
