I ran 2.4 miles today. Nonstop. I am wondering about myself. Since school started on Monday, I have not had a bike ride. I rode my bike to school on Mon and Wed, but no formal ride. The wind has been blowing here like crazy in the evening. Hopefully we can get out tonight and ride, this ten miles a day crap is not going to be working for me.

D, I'm afraid of you! That's amazing on the run.

I know the lack of exercise is annoying with school. I hit the gym for only about 30 minutes a day. I just am struggling to find the time. I look up and the clock says time to do something else, like pick up the kid or make dinner. Damn details of the life getting in the way!

You're a runner.

Hey everyone, D is a runner!!!!

D - Awesome!!! I can't believe how quickly you have progressed. You R a runner!! :thumbup::clap::cursing::sneaky::clap:

I have been riding at 6 am, but there isn't alot of time to ride a long distance. So, I've been trying to improve my average speed. It just doesn't seem like exercise if I'm not wheezing at the end! LOL.

I have also become a friend of the stairs at my building. The School of Nursing is housed on the main floor. So I hike up to the 4th floor (all the higher it goes) across the building, and then back down the staircase at the other end. How often you ask? Well, #1) everytime I get a really annoying e-mail, #2) when I get a notification of yet another meeting, #3) when I look at my watch and see that I have lost a considerable amount of time in work without a break, and #4) when I have the urge to eat and it isn't time for a snack or meal. Doing that route a couple times makes me want Water, not food! :biggrin:

Hoping for a fine weekend, with a long ride each day. Take care all. KY

Jared is so ready for school. He's a big boy and he wants to learn. He's got his smart big sister he's following too.

BTW, BG, since you are not at work, taking little dude to school I'm a post here, I sent Zoe to school today dressed ala Stacy. I wish I'd taken a picture.

I bought her knee socks this weekend that she is in love with. Last night when we picked out clothes for today, she picked shorts and a tank. This morning she was dressed and I thought, shorty socks and tie shoes, but no, she insisted on the knee socks and crocks to go with the tank and shorts but it was cold so out came a hoodie. Oh, and the hair which is long and no bangs now, had the front pulled back in a barrette. Really. My kid looked cute but way to grown up. I was freaked a little...each piece was okay alone, but pulled together it was an "outfit". The last person I've seen dressed like that was you. Yeah, my kid dresses like a 28 year old. We'll her shorts and tank aren't as tight as yours and they are pink. And the shirt had "Marie" from the Aristocats on it.

Lord help me.

They grow up fast.

J you had better get a picture of her later lol. I love it. Korrine is not too fond of the knee socks but she does love her crocs. Uon the nfort for her they are not dress code. Not that it would ahve mattered since I dressed them both in matching outfits. Yep, I am that Mom. I will have to get my pictures on the computer in a few for y'all to see. They were so cute. I still have not cried yet, and niether did Jared. He was so brave. =)

      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.
