Cool bike! I love bikes...still have my first mini-bike that I got when I was five! We have two now, LOVE to ride! Nice to meet another motorcycle friend!

Hey Thanks, It only just broken in. I am highly considering selling it for a sport bike as thats what ive always wanted but have always felt too fat to ride one. But thats changing.

2 hours with a partner is fine! I thought 2 hrs on your own. Phew.

I like that your addicated to exercise. Me too. Sometimes i think i am very obsessive complusive and thats one of the reasons i got fat in the first place. Better to be OCD about exercise than food !

I need exercise. It will help with my mild depression and I bet it will help with the stalled weight loss, too (I'm due for a fill this next Tuesday -- that will help, also, I hope). My problem is this: after I leave my office at night, I CANNOT force myself to go to the gym. And I LOVE my gym, my trainer, etc. I wonder how hard it is to start your day at the gym. Anybody do it that way? Any recommendations from the Vast Sisterhood?

Blessings on you all,

I only get time in the morning! No way i could fit it in at night. Works much better for me. I do have to get up at 4am though as i have to be at work by 7am. I workout 5am-6.15 6.20. Then shower get ready for work and go straight to work. I find i have more energy in the morning and i got used to 4am's after 2 weeks. I make sure i lay everything out the night before as i do not think to straight at 4am!

I forget to pack underware if i dont and it diesnt feel good at work going commando all day!

You like the sport bikes, huh? You like to go fast? LOL Around here it is nothing to see those guys doing 95 down the yellow line in between traffic...scares the crap out of me! Me, I'm a cruiser. My next bike (soon) is a Super Glide.

Yes, I work out with a partner, so it takes longer. He worked my arse off today! Really pushed my limits. We will see if I can move at all in the morning...LOL

A lot of folks get their gym time in in the morning. In fact, it is a widely held belief that there are training and weight loss advantages to working out before Breakfast. I wish I were a morning person, but I definitely am NOT! Good luck and I will be rooting you on to pushing through the "I don't wanna go!" phase! It's a killer, I know!

What are bicycle crunches? Sounds intriguing! Wow...pushups. I can't do those yet. My upper body strength is so wimpy compared to my lower body, it's sad!

whos, did you eat any?

bicycle crunches, not really what they sound like, and I hate them but my trainer is making me do them. Lying on your back, knees bent, arms behind neck, bring your right elbow and left knee together, then left elbow and right knee together, then repeat for 50, then take a break, then do 50 more. My trainer tries to get me to do 200, but I've only gotten up to 150. Never let your feet or head touch the ground during the set (well, your not supposed to, when I'm not with trainer I take a break).

Sorry, not the greatest description...

Good for you, WHOS! You are rocking today! (Ooooo! Hot tub! Yummy!) Hey, I know what you mean about the MP3...it took me a while to get one...but I am so in love with my IPOD now! Here's one that might be good to get you started, though, and it's 1G under $30!

OH! And good news! I can move this morning! I guess my legs really CAN take the beating so much more than my upper body. My arms and chest are still so sore from Monday and Tuesday...and we are doing biceps and triceps today. I think I'm in trouble.

      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.
