I lived in D.C. for a while and did the ride to the wall, man it a great ride. There is a Law Enforcement ride on Mother's Day to the LE Memorial. Not as big but it is a great ride, tours around DC and ends with a wreath laying in honor of fallen motor officers, at the LE Memorial. I envy all you guys heading to Sturgis this year. I have been three times, I love the roads there Custer Nat'al Forest was a nice ride. I don't think I will be making the trip this year, due to being banded on the second day of the rally haha. May plan something for next year though. Just wanted to drop note saying hi, I haven't been on LBT in a while.

macacoza, well bettca wish you were in Texas sometimes again huh,do you still have somewhat of a southern accent? I just had cousins that had to move from Colorado here because of his job works for the energy department , they had a rode awakening .Or rsther is daugther did. They had never seen so many mexicans lol.Said he was going to have to take up spanish. They moved to the Nasa area and went to the Almeda Mall area UG for there first mall experience don't know why my mother didn't have them call me.I could have sent thme to a much better side of town,but oh well.His daughter was scared to death.I was laughing at your eamail about your husband bless his heart .. my BF is just about to retire from law enforcement 30 years in Houston and he promise me we would start taking some road trips so I'm holding him to it. We have been pricing some good used 2 axle trailers that will hold at least 4 bikes. Seems senseless to buy new so many people go buy new and keep a couple of years and then sell them. I can't wait until I can wear a siz 6 chaps Girly. I went ahead and purchased my first pair from Fox Creel up in Virginia they are a great place to buy leather from they custom make chaps. But i was same way about has wide has tall I hated giving my measurements - YUK ! I'm hoping when I drop some pounds I can send back and let them size them babies down for me. I bet ya'll love living there . I want to be able to visit Colorado sometime and Spartanburg,SC where I was born SOME DAY. Its great reading everyone's stories. Keep posting.

And like you said it's just getting use to eating and living with the band sounds like yo have done great.

I hope I can do good. The one thing I hate is people asking me on a weekly bases how much weight have you lost !!! I want to punch there lights out lol .

Be Safe take care ,Sandra:rain:

Hey Carol, did you make it? I did!!!! Made the whole trip by my lonesome. Four days up, one day to sightsee, two days back home. I did Devil's Tower, Sturgis, Deadwood, Mt. Rushmore, Crazyhorse. Rode thru Wind Cave Nat'l Park. Saw the Bison, prong-horn antelope, deer. Won $150 in Deadwood. Got all the pics, pins, Patches and keychains. Total miles for the trip were 2972. Left out Friday the 3rd and got back Thursday the 9th. I'm tired......

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
