And the return trip is done for a total of 3 hours, 43 miles, 2200 calories. I am sitting in my easy chair sipping a Protein Shake. I think I will rest for a while ;)

Sure felt like it this morning, the return trip at 67.8 degrees was much more pleasant.

Catfish is the one we have to catch. He takes what ever I do and adds 10 miles on it just to show off :lol:

I remember the first time I went 5 miles, I was so proud of myself, and once you get the first 5 miles down the rest is a piece of cake. I just set a goal of every time I went to go 10 percent farther. You will be amazed how quickly it adds up.

So true T.Pops! A little bit at a time.... Just about 18 months ago, I started cycling for the first time in my life....it's not an "exercise" to me. It's an enjoyment!

Inspired by you guys. Did 12.5 miles in one hour on the local trails today. Haven't had this much fun biking in 7 years!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
