I saw some of you talking about the trikke on here....it looks like fun.

I looked at their web site but KNEW y'all could give me more info on it. What are the pros & cons? What are your experiences? What equipment is a must have....well besides the obvious, a Trikke!:)

On the trikke discussion board (I can't remember the name of the site) I saw a lot of people talking about falling off, breaking ribs etc....yikes! I hope that is becasue they are going really fast or that they are doing extreme stuff.

Thanks!

Elizabeth

i dont have one, but know some people that do and love them. It is all personal preference

The guy I know who has one has fallen, but not seriously hurt himself by any means. At least it is shorter to the ground than off a normal road bike...:)

I use a road bike, but had started with a hybrid bike. If you get a bike, have a great time on it and make sure you get you a helmet....

Hi,

I was just looking at the videos on the trikke.com website and it does look like you could have some fun while trying to get some weight off. I think I might ask Santa for one - I have been a good girl this year:thumbup:

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
