I WENT MOUNTAIN BIKING!



Recommended Posts

A really good stretch you can do with your hubs is to lay on your back' date=' keep on leg straight on the floor. Lift the other leg straight up against his chest (he is kneeling on the floor facing you) and have him push it forward......

Ok, I'm done now! :)[/quote']

Whoa....I need a cigarette now.

And girl the only stretching I did last night, was stretching my tired ass out on the bed!

I went to bed at 8:30! I was exhausted!

Oh and my ass is bruised :P

Yeah I was reading that on the edge of my chair thinking...."hmmm, where is this going?" I had to make double sure I wasn't in the powder room.

Hahaha! It really is a good partner stretch!

I bet. It's probably going to be sore for a while!

Don't laugh, well, you can laugh if you want, but when I was heavy I rode this:

(Hey, at least I was getting exercise) My husband and I would go for long rides and this bike is so comfortable to ride. I love it. Do not try mountain biking with this. :D

This year I bought a regular bike since I am at a normal weight now I figured I can ride a regular bike. Ouch, the first time I rode my butt was sore for weeks! Those seats hurt! The recumbent bike is much more comfortable,

I wish I was brave enough to put up my before picture of me on my recumbent bike...wow!

Lol! We have some older people around here that have those! :P

But yep you were out there doing it! That's most of the battle right there.

I was asking why can't I just put my cruiser seat on there! :D

Half way through the ride my husband and I switched seats because mine was stock.

It helped but a new bike is on order because the bike is small and the suspension kinda sucks.

Mine only had 2 wheels but it was comfy. This was way before surgery but I put many miles on it.

Damn I really had on some short shorts that day.....don't look.

Those are the straightest eyebrows I've ever seen. Not that anything else there is natural, but those just jumped right out. She had to have used a ruler when she painted them on.

One day, maybe just maybe, you will even enjoy the soreness you feel after a workout! I know that's pushing it but you never know it could happen. :)

A really good stretch you can do with your hubs is to lay on your back, keep on leg straight on the floor. Lift the other leg straight up against his chest (he is kneeling on the floor facing you) and have him push it forward. I LOVE this stretch, you should feel it in the back of your legs and glutes. Breath while you are stretching and you will get a better stretch. Usually when it starts to hurt we want to stop breathing and tense up if you breath through it you will stretch farther.

Also, stretch your arms and chest. You are probably going to feel soreness there tomorrow from being tense while you were riding.

Ok, I'm done now! :)

This is called the rower's stretch and this is BY far my favorite stretch. I do it with Bands at my trainers.

Great Job Laura! Let me know if you need any extra padding for those shorts, my jiggly butt has plenty :P

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
