it helps but i don't think it counts. a good workout on a staionary bike is go hard, as fast as you can for a minute, then cruse for a minute. Hard then cruse. Push yourself.

I'll agree. The Band only makes it harder to live our lives in the manner that we did before the bad. I doesn't make it impossible. I have the same struggles that you are facing. Hang in there.

I have asthma too. I got on the scale and am back up to 370. Better than 450 but not where I want to be. Thank you guys for the support it helps knowing someone else is having similar struggles and successes

I didn't get to restriction until I reached 9cc's. That was two years ago and I still feel good with it. Fill that puppy up if you have to. You didn't go through all the trouble to get the band to not use the it to the fullest of it's capacity.

I got out on my mountain bike yesterday to enjoy the sun with my kids. We had a great time 60 degrees feels awesomwe. Gonna try my 10 mile loop tomorrow. Wish me luck.

This week has been better than last. I have been trying to get on the trainer but that thing is tourturous. I have been easing back into it. I have been walking on the treadmill and lifting weights some. Got good and sore Monday feeling better today though. I hope some of you are also making strides, or at least back to the baby steps.

Hello all, Does any one know if Dr. Ponce accepts United Health Care? Thanks for the help. I'm looking to get a fill.

I'm in.We can do it.

It is disheartening to think about the amount of work it will take to get back to where I was last time I posted on here.

Let's get this thread going again. I have gained wieght that has got to come off. I want to start riding again and need support from some of you pros. I will ride on the trainer this evening after work. Who is with me?

Hammer1 i see you are still alive and still posting. I haven't been on here much till as of late. I hope you are doing well and still losing. Brad

I hope you guys haven't give up. I am a long way from being ready for a tri but you guys are motivating. I have been riding my mountain bike a little and have my road bike on the trainer. When I get some more weight off I'll try to start running. I have a little holiday gainage to deal with but I feel like I'm back on track.
