Mountain biking...



Recommended Posts

Anyone else out there into mountain biking? Being almost 100lbs lighter now I am a bit faster. I usually do at least one race a year but I am already on my 3rd with 2 maybe 3 more this year to come. I am actually riding Expert (level below pro/elite) which is far past my expectations. Between the gym and riding with only 1 off day a week my fitness level has sky rocketed since surgery. God bless the sleeve!!

Congrats!!!! That is awesome! My husband and I would like to get into in. Right now we are walking & sometime running. We started looking at bikes and it makes my head spin! Didn't know there were so many options someone told us a hybrid would be good since we r just planning on doing neighborhood and bike trails. Any suggestions?! Thanks

YES YES YES.

Love to hear things like this. The clothes, the compliments, NOTHING compares to just doing things, just being out and being awesome. I have been a yogi for 20+ years, but after surgery I have totally redefined my practice, and will begin my Yoga teacher training about this time next year. I will be riding 40 miles in the Livestrong Challenge on my 40th birthday.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
