Thanks HP, I was thinking of asking them to do a barium study and look at the thing again. If it looks good I will ask them to refill the darn thing.

JC

Well if it does look good, and they'll do a fill go, go slowly....you strike me as an all or nothing kind of guy...something about riding 80 miles...I'm not sure why I have that perception of you.

Be careful. You know you've got the best group of cheerleaders on this board. :cheer2:

went to the lbs today to drop my bike off. I rode a Trek road bike....(2200) wasnt thrilled. The frame was too big for one thing, and it just felt...ODD.

Looking at the Pilot, but he didnt have any in yet. MAy be taking a trip to some other shops, to check others out.

Really want to buy from him becuase he is close to home and a super nice guy..BUT HE DONT GO ON RIDES WITH ME...so needing to make sure I find one that I like and enjoy riding...

So many choices and things to consider....

well, I am off to bed...

Nite everyone

Not really Tboned. It was my fault even though it was a complete accident. Kinda of hard to describe without visual aides but I will give it a try. I was driving down the freeway service drive(one way street) and wanted to make a left turn onto another street. You can turn from both the far left lane and the center left lane. I was in the center left lane behind another car that was also turning left. When the light turned green I followed the car in front of me only that car turned the wrong way down the street (didn't go to the other side of the median) I realized this just a little bit too late, so as I followed that car the one in the far left lane hit me. It was dark, I have never driven that way before, my glasses give me really bad glare, and I was dead tired so it was hard for me to see. The guy who hit me had relatively no damage and did not want to file a report or deal with insurance and the cop did not give me a ticket. I was pretty lucky in that aspect.

Step away from the icing.

You poor thing!!! Not to toss a pity party your way, but having a crap couple of days with a crap accident to boot, is a bitch. JJ is a champ. We heart her for you too.

JJ, we heart you.

HP, So you see what I mean? You've got to ride those bikes until one whispers sweet nothings and you're like, "oh yeah baby, this is theeeee one."

D, Come up for air. We know school is keeping you busy. Hope all is well.

B, Howdy !

JC, We're thinking on you.

      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.
