Yeah Cindy, just hang in there. I was like that when I first started back riding on July 1. This weekend I did a whopping 11.7 miles.

I'm trying to strictly keep this one on pavement. I found that my area has quite a bit of nice paved trails. I rode 11.7 miles on Saturday -- all pavement.

Saturday, 7/29 I went bike riding and I did 11.7 miles.

7/31 B - Coffee S - 5oz yogurt L - avocado & smoked oysters D - Garden salad

T, Now all we have to do is convince you to get a bike and come ride with us.

7/27 B - Coffee L - Shrimp and crab pasta D - Wendy's chili 7/28 B - Coffee L - Thai food, not sure what D - Steamed fish and salad

LisaG, All I can say is that Cannondale is nothing but the truth!!! I understand it was specially designed by women, at least the one I have which is an Adventure 400. I cant wait to get it out on a trail and really put it to the test.

Hey I gained 2lbs but I am hoping thats muscle I am gaining from all the exercise I have been doing.

My new NSV is I am in a size 18/20. Whoohoo:clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

Thanks Tricia, how much of a gain should I see??? I like the scale going the other way.:omg:

My hubby and I started riding our old mountain bikes on July 1. We did that for about 2 weeks and then we broke down and went and bought us some comfort bikes. I bought a Cannondale and hubby got a Trek. Now all it has to do is stop raining on the weekends so we can go on one of the bike trails. We have just been riding around the neighborhood doing around 8 miles.

Did any of you notice when you first started your regular exercise routine you lost a lot of weight but then gained back a few pounds? Is this normal or am I doing something wrong?

Yeah Nochoice, glad to hear you have a date. I sure wish you well on that long ride home. I had to ride from DC to Waldorf and thought I would die. Good luck to you.

Gonna do my weight machine during the week and ride the bike again on the weekend. We try to get out early on the weekend before it gets hot but yesterday we took it to the limit and were out til 8 pm. My legs are feeling it too.

Wanted to share the trail with you all http://www.aacounty.org/RecParks/Parks/aacotrails_park/bwitrailmap.cfm

Did the bike thang all weekend!:cheer2: Went to the BWI bike trial on Saturday and did 4 miles. Went to Haines point on Sunday morning and did 7 miles, then went back to BWI bike trail and did another 4 miles.:cheer2:

Hey Jamie, My band sister you lookin pretty good over there. Congratulations on your 100 pound mark. You look absolutely fabulous, darling!!!!

I have been working on the weight machines to tighten up my arms and thighs. I also went bike riding on Sunday down at Haines Point.

Hope you had a Happy Bandiversary Teresita. Sorry I missed it. I have been on vacation since June 29 and had not logged on to a computer til today.

I just sent her a private message.

Hey T, If you need some kisses can't you find someone to do that to you rather than eat them!!!!! :kiss2: :kiss2: :kiss2:

Good luck BarbaraC and I wish you a speedy recovery.

HunnyBun Dont sweat it that he has not done a lot of lapbands. I was my doctors first and he got it in perfect. The question I would ask him is if he has done a lot of bariatric surgeries before. Remember if he has done the gastric bypass surgery that is a lot more complicated than the lapband. It's not like the guy just got outta school!
