I could just imagine you all getting together and fixing her. I am feeling better just thinking about it.

That happened a couple months ago except my "friends" called ex-wife. Not fun, John isn't 18 yet!

I think if this lady got fired she would come back with a shotgun and take me out. She pretty much hates me. We had it out today which was kind of fun. Plus my boss took my side which made victory that much sweeter.

I will have lots of stories for you when we go camping.

D - Today is first day back at work, so I've been trying to make sense of the 782 new e-mails in my inbox. I was good, though, while I was off and did not check e-mail once. I'm now paying the price. Fortunately, I can and will work from home for the rest of this week and probably next. I love pharmacology. My wife and I met in a psychopharm class, and the professor remains one of our good friends. I'm so happy that you and your husband enjoy biking together! It is great to have his support and to be able to do good things for yourself that don't take time away from him. My wife, while supporting my biking, has no interest in riding, so sometimes it seems like a choice between doing what I need to do for me and spending time with her. In the end, I'll do what I need for me, but the balance is a little harder.

JC - Hopefully someday I can attain the highly coveted Bitch status, and maybe if I work really hard, I can be a BitchBadAss, but for now, I'm satisfied being a lowly Stud...

HP - I hear your concerns and I agree with Deanna - you are a wonderful person, you have worked very hard, and no one here would ever think poorly of you for any reason. Ride your heart out, your friends will help you (it's amazing how much more you can do when riding with a group of friends), and if you get to a point where you can go no further, ride the SAG wagon back in and know that a few short months ago, none of this would have been possible, and in a few short more short months, you'll be riding farther and faster than you can imagine.

BG - Sorry the husband trashed the house. I would be dead if I trashed the house while my wife was out - he should consider himself very lucky, inddeed... Also, sounds like a great plan to get control over food again.

J - You are totally my kind of camper - it all sounds well and good until ya realize at the end of a long, rough day that you really are sleeping on the ground...

Slack - hope things are improving on the discomfort. A proprerly fit and ajusted bike and a pair of bike shorts should result in little to no discomfort in that area. When I was biking at 310 or so, I had no pain or discomfort there. My sit bones hurt like hell, but that's another story...

Hope everyone's day is going well - talk more later!

OH no! Are we allowed to talk to heathens on this thread??

Note of caution, when "showing off" the new cool freaking jump boots, be sure to go ahead and warm-up, as to avoid a very painful hamstring pull. WOW that hurt. Not bad enough to keep me from walking tonight, but it hurt. I hope I don't have to feed the trail dog tonight, I have had enough pain for one day!

B, I have no doubt you will be able to increase your status after healing. It still makes me sad that you have weeks to go while remaining only a "Stud" our prayers are with you!

BTW, there have been fewer women flirting with me on the singles thread since I achieved bitch status! They must feel threatened. lol

I'm starting to get a complex. HMMMMmmmmmm

Well JC maybe you need to go the STUD route. But that just makes me think of reproduction. Well that will get you a few more bites as well....hehehe

Now do any of those single chicas know that you'll be up in Indiana in a few weeks? Oh, who am I kidding, of course they do, becuase if they're interested they are, unbeknownst to you reading, you over here too. [remember I did call myself psycho before....not that I've ever stalked anyone, I'm just saying I know how to act interested...]

I love when I go to tease and end up revealing more about myself than I intended!

I did get my Fianance homework done today, it's due tomorrow. That was so much better than sweating it like I did last week. Whew.

B-

Take it easy with trying to do too much. Remember you had someone poking around in your insides. My recovery took longer than I expected...it was a bitch. But by the end of the month I was 100%, sleeping on my belly and everything. As I recall, the sleeping position situation was the worst part.

HP

Hope you got the checking situation all taken care of. That's horrible.

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I PBed with the best of them today. HOLY SHIT. Not fun. Of course the kid wanted to be all up in my business, "what's it look like?" Can you imagine? Anyway, chicken breast and broccoli are off the list of foods I'll be eating for a few weeks. :mad: Boo hoo.

Now, what's the minimal amount of Protein a person should get? I know I have that notebook here somewhere.

J...I dont know the min. amount, but I bought a New Whey Protien bullet this weekend, and it was actually really good. It has 43 grams per 3.1 oz vile.

It comes in several flavors.....and soooo easy to drink.

The director from the bike route, gave me the map for the 40 mile ride.

I will email it to whoever wants it just let me know

First day back at work is done. Not to bad, just spent most of it surfing a different set of websites than those I've been focusing on the past few days. There was a management change during my absence, seems I'm the last to know that I have a new boss. Should be interesting.

J - I am impatient to get back to it, but I am taking it easy. I'm walking around 2 miles a day, and not in any real hurry about it. The sleeping thing is the hardest, which is made even harder by my general inability to sleep through the night anyway. I'm a tummy / side sleeper, and right now that's not happening. I go back to the doc on the 29th, and will seek his advice on doing anything else, like riding the trainer inside.

JC - I appreaciate your concern brutha, but J is right, I shouldn't try to move too quickly out of studdom into the lofty realm of bitchdom. All things in their own time.

BG - Good on ya for standing up to the psycho bitch!

4 miles in 50 minutes with a pulled hamstring. I cannot express how good it felt to get out there and exercise.

      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.
