How close are you to Bellingham WA? They fly to Columbus via Skybus for super cheap sometimes. But then there would be the issue of getting your bike here.

HP.

Thanks for looking up the camp sites and taking care of that piece of this.

I got my fill today. It was cool to see the contrast move through the opening. 1.5 was too loose and 2 nearly closed it off completely, so he gave me 1.75 cc. No food for Juli today.

I'm taking Zoe and a friend to Chuck E Cheese's today...take pity on me. I already have a no caffiene head ache.

J I feel your pain...Korrine's friend from down the street is spending the night tonight and its High school Musical 2 night. We are apparently having a party lol.

Are we going to throw a bunch of tents on one camp site or get two sites? Arg this is so freaking exciting. D maybe there will be a bike shop your can rent a bike for the day from and you can fly over on the skybus. I have a bunch of camping stuff too. Plus we can bring bikes for the kids. And if we camp we can pay your daughter a little bit more HP.

Now that this is camping, will you bring your husband and son?

Zoe is getting a new bike for her birthday the weekend before our ride. So I'll bring that too.

I think two sites would be better, my tent is really big.

Or back in the day, my pals and I would rent a shelter house and put all our tents around it. The shelter house would give us a central covered place to play cards and get out of the rain. Typically they weren't that expensive shared between the group. Just a thought.

I'm glad you all have the equipment, because I don't. :D

hmmm...40 miles on rented bike...not sure about this....I am rethinking my jealousy...no, jk, you guys will have a blast!!!!

Ok, here is the serious question for the day.

Have any of you experienced occasional, and by occasional I mean mabye once every two weeks, upset stomach since banding. Nothing to write home about, but a queasiness or nauseous feeling that stays for awhile and then goes away?

Today for the first time ever since being banded, I experienced this low blood sugar, shakin, gotta-eat-everything-in-site-to-calm-down feeling. I have been having these events of upset stomach or queasiness or nauseaous feeling about every two weeks or so. I am fine, then bam, it is there and bam soon it is gone. Does anyone know these feeling???

Oh and just for your amusement....my DD, 13, is going on a High School Musical trip tonight too. We don't have cable, so she has to go elsewhere to find her Zack fix. So, it doesn't end anytime soon BG!!

hi everyne been busy working. Just had my first ride on my new bike it felt awarkard. I took bike back to the shop he raise the handle bar three inches adjust seat and changed out the stem to make me comfortable. I rode only 3 miles till by ass went numb. Plus this bike really is fast and i got a little out of control for a second or two. wow that was a rush going down hill the speedometer showed 37 thats was way too fast for a begiinner, plus i am still trying to get the hang of getting feet unhooked from the pedals in case I have to stop or something. oh yeah, I would like to watch you all jump rope are u saying you would give yourselves black eyes hahah later

Slacker,

That's a fun hill in my book! Watch out for pot holes. The key with pedal is to unhook your foot before you come to a halt. You probably already know that. And i say that as if I have them. Which I do not.

I had toe clips and took them off because I was trying to figure out a pressure point situation. (It was the saddle btw) I haven't put them back on thinking I was going to get a new pedal/shoe system. I haven't done that yet either.

I want aero bars next. You know the forearm rests...They are next on the list...

Chuck E Cheese's wasn't horrible. They are playing in my kid's room as I type and we are going for ice-cream here in a minute. Look at me, feeding my kid pizza, pop and ice-cream...Doesn't happen often but it does happen.

Well $200 hundred bucks later we are ready for the school year...ugh. I hate shopping. Luckily Walmart had school uniforms pretty cheap and the girl wants to wear all skirts this year. She already had a jumper from last year so i bought her two more khaki ones and a khaki skirt. Some white shirts a pair of jeans, some colored polos, a barbie lunchbox, and of course the High School Musical backpack. I am particularly proud of that one...6 bucks at Payless. They had buy one get one half off so I bought her shoes and got the backpack half off. And all of her supplies most of which being hand sanitizer, paper towels, and kleenex. Thank God it is over. And next year I have to do it for 2 of them.

D my stomach does that too. Normal to me.

J actually I would rather bring my Mom lol. My DH hates to camp. He hates pretty much everything I like to do and vice versa. But Moms might come and she would watch the kids too....hmmm gotta think about that one.

Well High school musical will never end for me after it is on our Tivo. I might have to accidentally erase it. Gotta love those Disney shows. I am sure I will be going to the Hannah Montana concert in December...

      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.
