Much exercise. Have a new bike, but can't ride til I loose more weight.

I bought my bike the week before I went in for knee replacement. I rode it once, and then it sat in my office until I spring. It was my goal.

Hit it pretty hard today:

21.3 miles in 2 hours at an avg of 10.7 mph. Not very fast, but I ride a mountain bike, and my average was thrown off because the auto-pause fuction didnt work, so around mile 14 when I was hydrating it was tracking :wacko: . I usually average a little higher, in the 11 mph range.

It was HOT out! If it wasn't 100 deg when I started it was at least that when I finished. Drank 64 oz of Water while on the ride, plus a 20oz Aquafina as soon as I left the park. Still thirsty right now.

Epic ride yesterday... 28.3 miles in 2:22. Even better personal bests on average speed. First 13 miles at 13 mph; 11.9 for the ride. It was long, and I was tired. Hit a brick wall at about 24 miles or so... those last 3-4 miles not a lotta fun.

That put me over 57 miles for the week... last 3 weeks 45, 45, 57.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
