No you didn't! Yes you DID!!!! You go girl. It whispered your name and you got it! Oh, I'm so happy for you!

Good news on the fill too. Were they able to do it without flouro? Or were you poked a million times with it?!

Congratulations on the new baby.

Just a comment, because I can't seem to leave this freaking site alone........

Do you realize how active this thread is compared to all the other exercise threads? It's freaking insane.

I heart us.

YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN SMOKIN THE TREAD TODAY THAT IS FOR SURE.

I hadnt checked it since 1040am, and there were 3 more pages...LOL

Yea, J.....It was kinda awesome...I was a little uneasy about the fact it was a FX which they call a High Performance Hybrid...but he promised me that all it did was add the different style handelbars, and he told me If I wasnt comfortable on the road bike, I wouldnt ride it, and this is still a road bike, but just with the MB handelbars.

So.......

I cant wait....I am so excited......

My DH may actually be getting the Speciliazed....not sure..well, I have to get to bed...

Nite everyone

How cool y'all met up for a ride! I'm jealous!

B - Well, I hate to see ya go, but I'm glad you two are going to be where you want to be right now. I'm also glad the decision is that much closer to "done" for you. The rest will fall in your lap when it's time. In the meantime, you better get your house on the market. I have three that have been on the market since summer...one of them since June! There is about a ten-month backlog of homes for sale in DFW right now...terrible. I will hold down the fort here until you realize you can't live without "BIG D" any longer!

J - OOO-OOO...gonna have to google me some Gantt!

Nite, y'all...this chickie is wupped and sore from the gym! See ya tomorrow!

Isn't it funny that when something is in reach we just want to get it sooner!!!!!!!! HP and her new bike, me and my bodybugg.

Other question about the BB, is the software web based or is it software that you download to only one computer?

Cool because I want to log stuff in while at work. It's basically the state's computer but I can put stuff on it, short of porn...or at least I think I can. I have friends in IT who will do Admin password if I bake the cookies...(and explain what I want to download if they deem it safe...we aren't too strict around here.)

TX - Thanks - I'm glad that some things are kind of settled. We at least know that we want to move back to Boston for now. But, to paraphrase the last stanza of the old Mac Davis song, "Happiness is [Fort Worth], Texas growing nearer and nearer," so I'm sure we'll be back someday. Very nervous about selling the house, but we don't live in a regular subdivision, so it will either be easier or harder than average. Our neighbor is a RE agent, so we're going to sit down with her when we get home. Most of the jobs that I'm looking at will offer some relo assistance, so if the agent's commission is included, we can sell for less than we paid, if necessary, and still walk away with some money.

HP - CONGRATULATIONS!!! I would be so dying to just pay it off & ride. It's hard to have fiscal discipline sometimes. You'll get your bike soon enough and when you do, you'll be riding with a big ol' smile!

J - Thanks for the rockstar! I'm so about to break down and buy the bodybugg, too! I was planning on getting a Heart Rate Monitor, but I might go BB instead - I like the graphs and charts!

Alright, off to go drive by some houses here that we might be able to afford - it's sad that a 1200 sq foot house here costs 2-2.5x as much as our McMansion on a heavily wooded acre in dallas costs. On the other hand, these 1200 sq foot houses have 10-20x as much character as ours....

Have a great day, everybody!

Small house = better house. I think. Less to clean, less to heat, less to leave an environmental footprint.

And being a girl who cooks, a smaller kitchen is better (if it's big enough and well laid out) than a huge ass kitchen where you have to walk 15 feet to get a something turn around and walk another 10...blah, blah, blah....

I have a tiny house which fits me and my daughter perfectly. I'd be happy with something newer and not falling apart, but I love my little house. 1150 square feet, little!

Ok, I don't pretend to understand all the business stuff that you guys talk about, because, I DON'T. BUT, I do understand something. You are all getting BB and now I want one. I don't want it to be something that is exciting for a few weeks or months and then I don't use anymore though. I like to track some stuff but when it has to be done every single day and all the time I get tired of it and I stop, that is why I don't track my food. I get tired of it. So, I don't know if the BB would be a good thing for me or not?

I have 1300 square feet and wish I had more room. I also have myself, 2 adult kids, and two child kids. And my kitchen is tiny. I wish I had one of those big kitchens Juli.

If you know you would get sick of it then don't get one D. It is a pain to log stuff but i think it will be worth it if I can get myself out of this rut I am in.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
