B! That sounds horrid! Somehow me thinks you are making light of this situation for us? I really do. Even though you share that you are in the hospital, it seems you don't want us to worry too much, but we do! You are a big part of the Bycyling Family! Regardless, I hope everything turns out okay...have you contacted your LB doc? Sending you warm fuzzies and good mojo for a speedy recovery to a good place in Band Land!

Oh, you are welcome! Good luck in your paperwork process...it can be daunting for some, so just breathe and know all will be okay. Some companies "seem" to automatically deny the first time and you have to go for round two. Others return approvals in less than a week. You just never know. It sounds like you have a good handle on things and a good shot at approval. Have no fear! LOL
Thank you for the compliment on my pics! I will admit I am proud of my progress...because I've worked very hard for it! LOL I have a little ways to go yet, before I go into "maintenance mode"...about 25 pounds or a comfortable size 8, whichever comes first. The 8 will likely come first. I exercise a LOT...I am into body building, lifting 1.5 to 2 hours a day, Monday through Friday...one body part per day. I am also an avid cyclist...I LOVE MY BIKE! I try to ride 200 miles per week...sometimes I do more, sometimes a little less. This weekend I am riding in the MS150, which is 150 miles in two days to raise money for Multiple Sclerosis research and assistance. This will be my biggest organized event to date, and I can't wait!
One thing I know...exercise is the reason I won't have to have any plastic surgery. Though a boob job would be nice!
Exercise is the key! I started late...I hope you do better than I did...I started about two months after surgery and not seriously until five months after surgery. You can do it!I'll be keeping you in mind and keep me posted as you go through the approval process!

Thank you for the birthday wishes! It was a great day! ZZ - "Weight Lifting Nazi"...I was dubbed that by my daughter and her friend when they asked if they could work out with me and my partner. We made them WORK. She said it should go on my MySpace and I agreed. Then my son saw it...thus the page comment from him about me being gay. He's a turd...what can I say? He makes me laugh more and more every day!

Actually, I peeked at your deleted post and it looked just fine! Very cool bike, D!

Oh really? No one can yell at you? You get exactly ONE of those from the protein queen! LOL Fiber/Protein Bar = Kashi = Crappy Taste (But it DOES exist!) I'm just proud of you to see that SUBWAY is not listed on your menu today! Good girl! (Yes, I got your text, doll! :rolleyes2:)

About the "LOST" collumn...since we are just starting from our current position, don't we put zero to begin? (Not what we've lost since surgery, right?) I'm befuddled. -

Bethany Sue? Too cute...hadn't heard that yet. BTW, mom almost made my middle name Bethany. Umm, yeah...Stefanie Bethany. Glad she came to her senses and made it Ann.

Wow...18 hours...1200 miles...driving a big ole' Texas truck that sucks down a gallon of gas just by turning the ignitiion. (LOL) MIGHT BE FUN! :redface: Gonna check flights and cars, too. We'll see... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ EDIT: Oh, DUH! Gas would run me about a grand alone, but flight plus car less than half that. So who knows how those bike boxes work when it comes to flying? Costs extra for the size? And once my beautiful girl looks like this... How would I get her back together again?

I was actually contemplating that. How long is the route you are considering? I don't even know how long of a drive that is. I'm going to look that up now. Hmmm.....tempting.

BP! Sorry to hear about your ordeal today. I'm glad you made it through, relatively unscathed. On the other hand, that is the first lengthy post that I recall from you and it displays your wonderful sense of humor! I love it! You're a good fit here! LOL Post more often!

YAY! We are there! 300!

Mom...are we there, yet?
