Has anyone taken up Bycyling?



Recommended Posts

I have no idea. I have not even begun to search. I am waiting for money in hand. I am not getting anything to expensive though. I very well may also get a new mountain bike (you know a girl one) since ODB is still broken and out of commission. I am definitely thinking pink and black though....

BG,

I'm so excited. I can have my mentor chica give you the bike buying drill. Or I can call you and tell you what she told me. She's very specific, which I love....

I'm sooooooooooo happy for you.

BTW, only 3 days and I'll be biking in Vegas, baby. We decided on the 23 mile self guided tour Saturday morning. Happy happy happy.

My other happiness is I ordered shoes from Shoes at Zappos.com - Powered by Service - Our shoe store features dress shoes, casual shoes, and athletic shoes for men and women! and I think I will never buy shoes any other way. OMG, the service, the speed, the styles......

I would like to state my most amazing feat ever....I did my taxes last night!!!!!!!!!! Yup you read it right folk, 3 months early. I'm getting a road bike, I'm getting a road bike (insert cabbage patch dance here) woohoo go me, go me, go me.

Okay that's enough gloating. Back to your regular bycyling programming folks.

I did my taxes yesterday afternoon! Too funny. I am getting a lil over $1000 back, gotta take care of some bills... hopefully there will be enough left to get a 'starter' bike, I really am excited to ride! I don't think I've been on a bike since I was about 12 or 13?!?!!!

You might cure me of my "I mention my birthday as often as I can before it happens" syndrome if I'm going to have to contend with that every time.

I'm just saying Tax day=Juli's birthday. That's all.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
