More fun than sex!



Recommended Posts

I did this mountain bike ride today: http://www.gjhikes.com/2013/03/great-pyramid-loop.html

I only dumped my bike twice, no blood, but if I hadn't been wearing a helmet I doubt that I would be here. Oh, and I need a new helmet now. But this was better than sex and believe me, I really like sex a lot! This trail taken at speed made any carnival ride I have been on seem bland and boring. I'm going to go soak now, I have a feeling I am going to be a tad stiff tomorrow.

Nothing like taking the mountain bike on some good trails. Sadly when I was riding 2 weeks ago I ended up in the ER. Lol. Luckily everything checked out ok though!!! I'm ready to get on the trails agin.

This reminds me of my boyfriend's complaint that our Saturday afternoon bike rides are disruptive to what we used to do on Saturday afternoons. I'm all "So we'll just shift our routine a bit, dear."

Nice ride. 2 hours for 5 miles? I am elite/expert MTB racer in Michigan wishing I had your terrain!! Keep the rubber side down! I always say, "when you don't think your ass can take it anymore, stand up and keep peddling!"

I'm scared to even try my bike. The last time I got on it, I thought the tires were going to burst, and I couldn't seem to maneuver it well. I haven't always had the best luck with bikes anyway. When I was young and in college, I bought one to ride around campus. I rode it for the first time from my campus apartment to the campus post office. When I arrived at the post office and stopped, I forgot to put my feet down and both me and the bike promptly fell over. It was soooo embarrassing.

Think I'll stick to walking for now.

Actually the article was for hiking. The trail was listed as beginner/intermediate and while there were some technical challenges, nothing really bad, I did the trail in about 45 minutes. BUT the Moab area is well known for it's mountain biking, ranging from beginner to "are you freaken kidding me?" There were a couple of rock climbs on this one that I got off and pushed my bike up, I'm sure someone could have made them, just not me.

Debbie, ever since the site was redesigned I can't find the appropriate forums any more, plus while there are aspects that are specific to each WLS, I don't think exercise is necessarily one of them which is why I shared it here. I still visit LB on a regular basis, I only post when I feel that I have something to add.

I would do just about anything to be able to live in that area! The MOAB has been a dream for me for years.

Yea, it is one of my favorite places on earth, and I haven't even been a Mountain Cyclist until last year.

      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.
