OK, but I have several bikes if you change your mind. :-) I have two very good friends that when we all get together it is like a three stooges reunion! Separately we are fine but the combination causes danger. We used to bike ride, mudsling 4 wheel drives, boat, jet ski, camp, fish, if there was an outdoor activity that had the potential to hurt you we did it. Now they are no longer into that kind of stuff. They would rather get together at one of our houses in the air conditioner and talk about what we used to do. I don't mind doing that, but I would like to add a few new stories to the book every now and then. I chose to focus on biking to get in shape because of the lesser impact on joints while losing weight, I have some recumbent bikes that are very easy on the butt, which allows for longer rides without the massive pain. I then added walking. Once I built up to walking 4 miles I stayed at that distance and started adding speed. Now I jog, I still do 4 miles but I jog most of the distance. I bought a kayak because my sister and I rented a couple to checkout Calladesi Island. After that trip my arms as well as my abs felt tighter. JC -
BG, What the heck is this lotion joke? JC

D, first of all WELCOME BACK WE MISSED YOU!! You are not weak, I think I can help you understand where your brother is coming from, guys deal in weak and strong, we are almost always in competion with each other and are taught at a young age that we are SUPPOSED to be stronger than any woman alive! The lucky ones figure out this is bullshit, but it is instilled in our brains. Part two he has no idea what kind of struggle this band is so he can't really comprehend. I think you said what you did in order to diffuse a situation, you were probably also hoping deep down inside that he would have enough compassion to not agree with you. He just has no way of knowing that this thing is a true honest to God struggle. So in order to get back at him on a level he will understand, you should, the next time you speak to him, make him aware that you now possess own and have a F-ing tool that he does not and that he cannot even borrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Welcome back! I mean it! JC

I do some extreme stuff that challenges me to not just complete the task, but also to survive, so most of the time I go solo. I don't know many people I could take that I would not be concerned about their saftey or ability. On the more tame outings I will take my son,as long as his mother cooperates. Thankfully that issue is soon to be over, he turns 18 in September! I have met some people on the exercise thread we are trying to get a biking get together going. Do you want to go? I sometimes have trouble doing things with my son because I have no parental rights, he is technically my stepson however, I will never ever treat him as anything other than my own flesh and blood! I am the only father he has ever known. I always make sure to let him know that I love him and believe in him. He never even had a chance to develop a relationship with his paternal grandparents. They seem to be very self absorbed. He lost both of his maternal grandparents when he was young. So he is stuck with me, the poor kid. :-) JC -
I'm crushed! Wounded! Defeated! (DeFEETed) :-) God you guys make my day so much brighter! We may need to change BG to GM (Google Master) JC ps (IKYLM) LOL

J, I was just curious if you were following some sort of workout plan, you seem to be plugged-in and up to date on the latest info when it comes to fitness. BG seems to be a master at finding cool rides though. BG, J may have a GF but she digs my feet! Go figure. LOL LOL LOL LOL JC

Hey Yvonne, you are not destined to be alone. The fact that you are actively trying to improve yourself says a lot about you. One thing I would say is this, patience will be your friend even if it does not feel that way right now. I would suggested focussing your energy on yourself your whole self. Weight loss will improve your mood and self confidence, but I can tell you from experiance that excercise with set goals will improve your feeling of self worth and you will start to believe in yourself more and more. Remember this, it is difficult for someone to like you if you do not like yourself. I have said this before and I believe it and do not mind saying it again, there are some great people on this thread who will help you, support you and be your friend without ever having met you! Take comfort in that and welcome. JC -
I have found that fart lighting is not as effective when you were a thong, granny panties are best. I would do a ride if the doctor clears me for such a thing. Unfortunately I would have to drive up instead of biking. Hey J, are you training with free weights at the gym? If so, are you following a set plan: light weight high reps, intermediate, full on heavy stuff? Inquiring minds want to know. psycho dude is going to attempt stadiums this afternoon before jogging, we'll see how that goes. It kinda reminds me of a famous saying "a journey of a thousand miles sometimes ends very badly" I think there was a picture of a salmon jumping into a bears mouth or something like that. JC

All kidding aside I do wear two pair of shorts. One is the old form fitting very elastic biking shorts and the outer a regular pair of jogging shorts. The seams from underwear cause too much pain. The opening in boxers can wreck your unborn children's day.

I never wear panties when I work out

4Miles tonight I wish I would have timed it, because it was my fastest pace yet!! BIG BIG BIG HUG D!!!!! JC

I know DerbyGirl my toy chest is getting full! Most of what I was buying was for that 1100 mile bike I have been planning. It looks like next year before I do that. I talked to my nephew Sunday and it looks like the 100 mile Everglades trek is on for October! That will have to do, I guess. Denise, it is good to hear from you, sorry you are having to endure library p.c.s. I had a slip this is the second time. The doctor I am seeing is pretty commited to saving the band if it is possible. I threw a little fit when I realized there is a real threat of losing the band. I have decided that negativity is counterproductive, so I am focussing on excercise as well as smart/wise food choices. It would be very easy for me to say I now have no help and start going back down the path of huge weight gain. I prefer not to, so I am going to get as much exercise whenever and wherever I can. I am also restarting my food journal and tightening up on the types of foods I surround myself with. JC -
Can't talk right now my ass is on fire! Who's idea was is to light a fart??? You guys need to grow-up !!! LMAO :-) JC (yes J ,I am often accused of talking out of my ass)

J, you are going to be hell to keep up with when you get some restriction! JC
-
HP, you can do it I know you can all you have to do is get on that bike and go! I can just imagine how well this little group would do if we all lived closer to each other! We would be a hell of an awesome force as an exercise group! JC

D, where the heck are you????? I hope you are just busy! JC

Jumping Boobs and Bone touching! Do you guys don't know how (HARD) it is to keep from making some off-color comment about touching (BONES)? lol But I have been doing the same thing so I will try to behave! What's really neat is I can feel an old ribcage break. I haven't felt that thing in years! BG, I bet it will take less than a year for you to be able to smoke my ass on a bike. I have been talked into showing up a little later today at the track where I jog. When I first started walking I would try to keep up with these two long legged girls. They said that I could walk with them but they didn't invite many people because of the lack of commitment. Wellllllllll apparently one of them has been slacking and the other wants me to show-up, then blow by them like they were standing still, in order to, either shame or inspire our slacker friend. The one who invited me was on the trail the night I smoked out that three miler with a hardcore sprint at the end. So HP, to answer your question, I have been taking it as easy as one JC can! :-)

There is not a whole lot I can add that hasn't been said except for one thing and it is HUGE. When you choose to fight this thing with exercise added in, you can back up the fact that you not only look good but you are getting fit. I would challenge anyone I know to a bike ride or a foot race if they tried to tell me I took the easy way out. Then after I smoked their ass I would come back and ask them how the EASY way out gave me such a high level of FITNESS!! Way to go BG!! Congratulations JC
