I WENT MOUNTAIN BIKING!



Recommended Posts

I'd say you're an official mountain-biker now that you have the scars :)

Lol! I was just thinking that being morbidly obese was dangerous for me...

But now getting healthy is going to kill me! :P

OUCH!! Glad you are ok. I had a nasty spill one time while test riding a bike I was thinking about buying. The chain broke when I shifted gears and wound up in the rear wheel. They were shocked at the store when I walked back up with the bike and was bloody. Needless to say, they did't care about the bike...just me. I guess if I was thinking right I could have gotten a deeeep discount on that bike...lol

Maybe so but you'll be hot and sexy right up until the day you ride your bike into one of those redwood trees.

Lol! Yes I think I need more practice before doing crazy downhill single track again.

Oh my shifting is getting better though.

And as hard as the uphill is its not as scary as barreling down (And over the handle bars) :P

Laura' date=' glad you're not hurt too bad. Wait until you switch to a road bike and start riding clipped in. There is a learning curve. I fell on day two and rolled in a ditch and didn't clip out. My ankle to this day still acts up sometimes. It was 101 yesterday and felt like 98 today. Shooting for 20 miles in the a.m. tomorrow.[/quote']

Oh and 20 miles! That's awesome! I will be with you in spirit, while I nurse my boo boos!

      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! 😞
