I lived in D.C. for a while and did the ride to the wall, man it a great ride. There is a Law Enforcement ride on Mother's Day to the LE Memorial. Not as big but it is a great ride, tours around DC and ends with a wreath laying in honor of fallen motor officers, at the LE Memorial. I envy all you guys heading to Sturgis this year. I have been three times, I love the roads there Custer Nat'al Forest was a nice ride. I don't think I will be making the trip this year, due to being banded on the second day of the rally haha. May plan something for next year though. Just wanted to drop note saying hi, I haven't been on LBT in a while.

macacoza, well bettca wish you were in Texas sometimes again huh,do you still have somewhat of a southern accent? I just had cousins that had to move from Colorado here because of his job works for the energy department , they had a rode awakening .Or rsther is daugther did. They had never seen so many mexicans lol.Said he was going to have to take up spanish. They moved to the Nasa area and went to the Almeda Mall area UG for there first mall experience don't know why my mother didn't have them call me.I could have sent thme to a much better side of town,but oh well.His daughter was scared to death.I was laughing at your eamail about your husband bless his heart .. my BF is just about to retire from law enforcement 30 years in Houston and he promise me we would start taking some road trips so I'm holding him to it. We have been pricing some good used 2 axle trailers that will hold at least 4 bikes. Seems senseless to buy new so many people go buy new and keep a couple of years and then sell them. I can't wait until I can wear a siz 6 chaps Girly. I went ahead and purchased my first pair from Fox Creel up in Virginia they are a great place to buy leather from they custom make chaps. But i was same way about has wide has tall I hated giving my measurements - YUK ! I'm hoping when I drop some pounds I can send back and let them size them babies down for me. I bet ya'll love living there . I want to be able to visit Colorado sometime and Spartanburg,SC where I was born SOME DAY. Its great reading everyone's stories. Keep posting.

And like you said it's just getting use to eating and living with the band sounds like yo have done great.

I hope I can do good. The one thing I hate is people asking me on a weekly bases how much weight have you lost !!! I want to punch there lights out lol .

Be Safe take care ,Sandra:rain:

Hey Carol, did you make it? I did!!!! Made the whole trip by my lonesome. Four days up, one day to sightsee, two days back home. I did Devil's Tower, Sturgis, Deadwood, Mt. Rushmore, Crazyhorse. Rode thru Wind Cave Nat'l Park. Saw the Bison, prong-horn antelope, deer. Won $150 in Deadwood. Got all the pics, pins, Patches and keychains. Total miles for the trip were 2972. Left out Friday the 3rd and got back Thursday the 9th. I'm tired......

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
