Thanks everyone! Funny about the boots cuz I've had them for years. We were in Pennsylvania at the world's largest shoe store looking for some boots cuz it was cold, but the only thing they had in my size was from the Harley line.

Next week when I have my license will be the turning point in my marriage. He's excited that I'm learning to ride, but he's getting nervous anticipating me taking the thing to work. He opened a big ol' can of worms bringing the bike home. Big worms.

I'm trying to do this whole bike think like I'm smooth and cool, but I may as well wear a siren hat and wave neon flags. There's just no way to remain understated while riding a Harley - they're apparently a really huge deal. Every time we're in public, guys bow down to us. They circle the bike like we're royalty. Seriously, I just don't "get it." Okay, it's a nice bike, but it's just a motorcycle, right? I've never been into cars. I don't know the difference between horse power and cow poop. I might like to be the center of attention when I'm in my own little circle of friends, but driving down the street getting waved at by total strangers is weird... did any of you know that owning a Harley is kinda like joining a secret little cult? All bikers now hit their chest with their fist then kinda throw it our way - one of those brotherly love kinda symbols like we're related or something. Strange. Very strange new world I've entered. You can't stop at a light next to another bike without engaging in conversation. Good thing he waited till I was almost 42... if I had one of dem deer Harley's when I was a slut I mean single, damn, I'd have been in trouble!

Lisa - You will always have that! I have had people hanging out their windows, coming over when we stop for gas or stop in to eat. Harley's are the top bike, but all bikers are friendly. You will never see a stranger when you are on a Harley. When you stop at a light, people will talk to you or give you a sign. It is a whole new world when you ride a Harley. I have a fun time, cause everyone tells my husband "I like your bike, but I really love your wife's". A lot of ladies take road trips by themselves, they always know that if they have a problem, a Harley rider will come by and help. We always pull over and help everyone, including cars if they are having problems. Of course you will always run into the people that only know Bikers are bad, and will hide their children from you~ lol. Biker's use to have a really bad reputation, but now most of the people that ride Harley's are Doctors, Lawyers, and hard working people, so things have really changed in the last few years. When we go in a place to eat, if we have on a Harley shirt, coat, or a hat, everyone wants to talk to you. We have swapped phone numbers to several people while in a public place. One time while we were riding and came to a light a little old lady rolled down her window and said "I like your bike, but I would be scared to ride one." She was a cutie.

Betty, I see what you're saying, but I guess I'm over-analyzing the whole "Harley" symbol the same way I'm analyzing being fat vs. thin. I still have 80 pounds to lose, but men are already treating me so different since I lost 50 pounds. Now 2 guys will each hold doors open for me at the same time. Men stop traffic to let me in. It's nice, but I want to scream at them because 50 pounds ago they'd rather run me over than let me in.

That's how I feel about the Harley. I'm the same chick, I just happen to be sitting on an expensive label. I guess what I'm saying is that I've been dying for all this attention my whole life, and nothing about me has changed. I'm still the same ol girl with the great big heart, but now suddenly people are noticing just because I have a fast toy? Maybe I'll just carry a frying pan and whack them over the head. Then again, maybe I'll try to forget about the past and live for the future.

I've always been a "label hater." I never understood why people spend big bucks on designer lables just to make the designer richer while I'm getting reamed. I wish I had a kill-switch for my brain to shut it up instead of all this analyzing! Just kinda go with the flow.

      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.
