Riding While Fat



Recommended Posts

Should I ride my motorcycle now that I'm 270lbs?

Okay here is my story, a few years ago I purchased a sports bike (which I love to ride):lol:. I was about 200 to 215lbs when I got it and I rode any chance I got. It was like my therapy and it worked every time. Well about two years after I got it my then boyfriend, now husband took it for a ride without my permission and crashed into a wall head on :crying:. He was fine but my bike was not:mad3: . It was going to take $2,500 to fix so we kept putting it off for other things. This past weekend my husband decided to surprise me and take it to the shop. It will be ready next week, but now I'm having second thoughts about riding because I have gone up to 270lbs and my riding gear doesn't fit. It's not just that I have to buy a new jacket it's that I don't want to look like a circus attraction! :laugh: I can just picture me on my bike and people looking at me all weird, trying to figure out why there is only a tire sticking out of my fat @$$!! :) I mean I really, really, really want to ride and I don't think I can wait until I lose weight after the Lap-band surgery. Any suggestions?

:drool::hi:

Yep, my mind went straight to the gutter with that title! LOL! :cool2:

Now to your question. RIDE YOUR FREAKING BIKE!!!!! Who CARES if they think ANYTHING about it? :lol: You want to ride, then ride! I have ALWAYS admired women who ride their OWN motorcycles. I have never once paid attention to their size, I'm just thrilled to see 'em out there!

And a side note:

I would have KILLED the boyfriend for taking the bike and WRECKING IT!!! :thumbup:

I'm shocked he became your DH and without even having to fix the bike first!! Must be love! :party: LOL!

I would ride it. To ride heavy isnt the end of the world. Too many of us put our lives on hold waiting to be thin enough to enjoy life . . . but why. If you love to ride, just do it.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
