Hi guys--

Ya know how the docs want us to exercise after our bands? But all I wanna do is sit in front of my puter on lapbandtalk.com? How about putting a generator on an exercise bike attached to the computer so the computer will only work when I'm riding the bike? Hmmmm...maybe I should patent that...any investors out there?:biggrin:

You know that is so funny cause as i read this & type I am on my bike!!! I have not been banded yet still waiting on insurance approval but i am trying to get myself in the habit of some things now. I made it up in my mind that for now on i will not get on my laptop unless i am on my bike. Good thought uh! lol

Funny you should post this yesterday at lunch my friend told me she rides this thing all day called the Stamina InStride Cycle. She sits at a computer all day and just cycles. I was going to try and find one she said she got hers at Walgreens.

I actually walk on my treadmill with my laptop on the tray and chat on lapbandtalk, while walking for 30-45 minutes.

I play guitar hero when I'm on the treadmill!! Makes 40 minutes go by way faster!! Took a while to get the hang of it but now I'm rockin out pretty good!

Yep they have em on their website InStride Cycle XL | Stamina | Walgreens

thats the XL version they have a smaller one that is cheaper also

Now all i need is someway to be able to use it and have my keyboard in front of me at the same time. lol

O.K. there are some talented people on here! I have trouble typing while at my desk. I can't even picture me trying to cycle and type at the same time!:smile:

Awesome idea! I just ordered an elliptical with a 7-inch TV screen.... I will only watch TV while working out during the first month so I can get in the habit!
