That Muddy Buddy sounds awesome! Yes, September is a ways out, but you have literally all summer to train for it if you want to do the whole 100! If you can do TOSRV, you'd think HHH is a piece of cake. Oh, did I say cake? yum, cake.

LOL

C - No offense taken. At the end of the day, either ride the bike you have or buy the bike you'll ride.

J - Cool, thanks. Mmmm... Warm vomit. Well, the fact is it can look like that going down, or it'll look like that on the way back up. Was going to mix some broth in with the brisket tonight to lube it up some...

That is a great pic of you & BG.

Off to review the beige walls for a while :) I'll be glad when the sun is out longer...

you guys look freakin awesome!!!! Wow!!!! I hope I get my butt in a target swimsuit this summer too!!!!!:)

C...I am moving to a road bike with mountain bike handelbars and I think they are called side bars. I tried the road bike with the handelbars, and I still am not ready for them. My new bike has everything the road bike has, minus the handelbars. So....we will see. I bought 3 new bikes in 2007...Ha...

Started with a Wal-mart bike single speed. Moved to a target bike(hybrid schwinn) and moved from there to a Trek hybrid.

So.....my husband can understand, but he is still riding with a 80's road bike....hahaha

B...hope you get better...:)

My husband smoked ribs today......they were great.....and it sucks that I could only eat a few.....but my scale will thank me...

Hi HP

I own a Fuji road bike. I have a drop bar, but Fuji makes a road bike with a 'flat bar' for those who don't like the bent over position. More comfortable, but you still the benefits of a lighter road bike. Some people prefer the upright position anyway...especially if you had and liked the feel of a mountain bike.

That's a lot of bikes girl! Can defintely see your progress just in the bike transition!

Hope that helps when you start your shopping. I'm sure dealers like Trek and Schwinn would have something comparable if you prefer their brand.

Yeah you know you are crazy when you run 6 miles on your treadmill while watching the superbowl instead of drinking beer. This game is pissing me off.

I. Fucking. Hate. Football.

Now I have to take some vicodin to sleep because I am that angry and distraught. Or a shot or 5 of tequila.

I only cried for about 10 minutes.

      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.
