Just wondering if I can count this as a bike?? Thought I would ASK!

HP, I know how difficult it is but try not to stress out about the weight loss, it will be there. I was shocked myself when I puked for twelve hours then spent three days on not much more than an IV only to get on the scale and see ZERO!?! change! JC

D, I just read your post and now realize that I am a thirteen year old!!!! JC

Chrispy, thanks for the recipe I will try anything right now! I'm hope things continue to work out for you. PigsR, way to go! The more you can walk the faster that darn gas pain will go away. I would say both the food and inactivity are wearing on me, also the anxiety of not knowing if I will require more sugery and/or lose my band. I have in the last two days jogged 4 miles and walked 4. I have in the last two days, lost 4 of the 11 pounds gained since leaving the hospital. Denise I will read the article tomorrow when I get to work and see if it gives a nearby town. Hey DerbyGirl, I was just giving you a hard time the other day. My son has been keeping me busy with his Eagle Scout Project. I am still staying away from Chuckie Cheese though! :-) JC I will have to slow down and read the article

Denise, if all goes well I will be able to eat Friday. It really all depends on the Doctor if he decides to operate there is no telling. BTW our local paper ( Tampa Tribune) Ran an article about Kayaking the Salmon River Canyon. They referenced Zigzag Oregon. They showed some people in the middle of a 40 foot drop, it looked like great fun. Are you familiar with this area? JC

Airplanes do not tend to burn as many calories...... unless of course I drag it behind me! LOL JC

HP, you are welcome to try one of my recumbents if you'd like. JC

Thanks Leona, I have been alternating between Beef and Chicken Broth. The cheese thing sounds great I am going to try that for lunch I love Cheese. I also am trying to get as much water in my system as possible, I actually dehydrated yesterday when I was jogging. It felt close to heat exhaustion, not sure, but I did think about calling someone for assistance. I find it funny that I don't seem to have that problem when I can eat solids. JC

D, did I mention that I think I may have some Brahma Bull DNA. I have this little hump on the back of my neck. I think that is where the stubborn comes from!! LOL I will slow it down I only have a couple days to go before I see the Doctor. The thing that got me moving was the stupid scale, I hate that thing. I have packed on several pounds since leaving the hospital. The good news is I knocked 4 of them off yesterday!! JC

Maybe they would help make biking easier!!!! lol The EBay prices look better. I should go back to sleep, it costs too much money to be awake! JC

Looks like a fun ride!

OK, but look what I found!! Kangoo Jumps Rebound Exercise Shoes, Jumping Shoes, Low Impact Shoes - Kangoo Jumps models

I used the couch 2 5k program as well. Has anyone used these things? If nothing else they look cool. Kangoo Jumps Rebound Exercise Shoes, Jumping Shoes, Low Impact Shoes - Kangoo Jumps models JC

BTW, I told you guys I probably require multiple babysitters!! :-) JC

Maybe the Doctor did not realize that he was dealing with a patient that " Aint Right In The Head" but his instructions were excercise as tolerated! That sounds alot like run till you drop to me!!! JC

Good luck PigsRFlying!!! Denise, I can eat soups, I also have come up with a instant mashed potato soup/concoction. There is just no replacing solid foods especially without restriction. I will be OK though I have been keeping myself busy planning a 1100 mile bike ride. JC

OK Ok Ok, I am caught up on my sleep!! D, HP, Killer rides J walked up hill? Was it really a mountain? Was is the hybrid Bike? I know my recumbent is awful for hills. BG, that's a good way to burn up some clock time locking yourself out of your office. I walked a 1/2 mile, then jogged 2 miles and walked 1/2 mile. How could I backslide so fast. I overheated and thought about calling someone to assist in getting me off that trail. Thank God I wasn't feeling toooooo stubborn today or I would have tried to push it out to 3 miles...... Maybe tomorrow. JC

PigsRFlying, I am feeling good. I am still concerned because I wont know if I get to keep the band and or require further surgery until the 10th. I am finding it very very difficult to remain on a liquid diet with no restriction. JC

DerbyGirl, I am currently trying to recover from the mental vasectomy that you just gave me. LOL Somone on another thread made a comment that got me thinking, it dawned on me that I was pounding the coffee pot hard at work. When I counted them up I realized I had been knocking down about 20 cups a day!! I quickly fixed that! Thanks for the concern and for the record I am staying the heck out of Chukie Cheese! JC

HP, so far the least expensive route is around 1200.00. I just kills me both vehicles are paid for yet they are starting to eat money and I am kinda allergic to car payments, I hate them. Before I got into the IT field I was an industrial mechanic, so part of me still has that I can fix anything attitude. JC

10 roger right on. Nite JC

Sweet, sounds like it will be a blast.

Hey J, thanks for putting me over on the other thread. You're too cool! JC

I am feeling as if nothing happened. I am of course sleepy and hungry as hell. The good and great thing is that I am tired. I haven't felt the least bit sleepy or tired until tonight. It's cool that you're going to be able to get away. JC

No, I am seeing the Dr. from Tampa General.
