  2. Did you hear the music too?
  3. Oh I took it off to do something else to it. It has to go through the song three times...I want to make it only once.
  4. three more pages....just sayin
  5. Yes, I agree. You don't want to be able to touch the ground necessarily. We get taught that as kids and it is hard to get out of our heads!!!

  7. Anyone ever planned an anniversary party before?????
  8. ZZ, I am so veeerrrrryyyyyyyyy proud of you!!!! You have made the biggest step ever!!! Getting back into exercising after not doing it is hard to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BB, I have a trainer for my bike and I hate it too!!!! It is not anything like riding outside...
  9. We use to have 4 wheelers....we sold them....
  10. I actually talked to JC the other day and he is fine but very busy with work!!! He is still getting his band filled from his near losing it awhile ago. He is a very good guy and I miss him too!!! C, you will get there too. It is hard to ride when it is hot....
  11. Not only did I get on the scale three times in 5 minutes to be sure that is what it said, but I will have to wait until tomorrow to see if it is the same. I truly doubt it will be. Seems to never stay the same day to day!!
  12. I never change mine either J, that's why I sit at the same number for so long!!!! I lose, then I gain back a few, then I lose it, and then I gain it back....it sucks. I am calling 170 goal for now. But the lower I go, 150 might be it for me. I made DH promise to tell me when he honestly thinks I look the best, and even if I have to put on 5 pounds to be there, I will. I think someone else looking at us, sees better than what we see. Unless of course we are in a 14 swimsuit in the changing room. Right, J????? I would like to think I will have this ridiculous pannus taken off and some rework to my chest....I have always been large on top and they just keep getting smaller and smaller, with more and more loose skin hanging around everywhere. I wonder if someone would of shown me what my body would look like at 37, after having bariatric surgery, and losing a lot of weight, if I would of taken better care of myself? I doubt it. I really doubt it. Thanks for the shout outs!!!
  13. HP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been missing you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am not riding tonight either...I have not been on my bike since Saturday....talk about withdrawals, well, I was on it in the house.....but that is NOT the same thing. Thurs, Fri and Sat.........I am hittin' it hard!!! JC has a Trikke????? I wonder if it is hard??? It looks plain fun...not something I would want to do 50 miles on.
  14. I am thinking the Trikke looks like a lot of fun!!!!
  15. I would love to be a mentor and friend to you!!! I am 37 also, with two kids, 20 and 13. I am in school now and looking forward to graduating this December!! If you think you might want to talk some more let me know!!! Deanna
  16. I had the gas pain but up in my shoulder area. Mine was so bad one night I ended up in the ER. Now, the ER doctor told me to do this and it worked. I still do it, if I get gassed up and can't get rid of it. Get down on all fours. Then lower your upper body down till it touchs the floor. So, now your butt is up in the air and your head and chest are on the floor. This lets the gas bubbles escape somehow. You might have to stay like that for a small amount of time before anything happens, and sometimes it doesn't happen until after you get up, but it does work great!!! After every fill I have had, I have gotten gas that night and am in a lot of pain. I use the position and soon the gas is gone!! Good luck and let me know if it works for you!
  17. I forgot to tell everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY SCALE WAS 199 TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will not change my ticker unless it is the same tomorrow...I am super pumped now!!!!
  18. HAHAHAHA....thats why I love this thread..we can be as silly or serious as we want to be!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I bet you are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo excited to get back on your bike. I know I am and it has only been four days since I have ridden, not by choice though!!! I am ready to turn the phone off so I don't have to do things instead of cycling!!
  19. J, your the one who made a comment about the million years...just sayin'
  20. Larry, nice to see you on here!! We have another recumbent biker on here as well.
