Hello there Band fans....I got banded March 28th-2007.

I told myself....Bycyling would be a very good choice. Fresh air, muscles working for the sake of "Cardio". After one week passed--in April. I purchased three new bikes for me and my two sons. I have defeated many things doing that. No more not riding with my children--we ride as a crew (family). We could not conquer the hill on my street. We used to stop 3 to 4 times before getting to the top ( I did). So now the wheels have turned. My kids ask me---"Daddy can we stop--our legs are burning". Thank God I am doing well now. Now with 21 pounds gone---but just riding bikes. I am ready for the next Journey...The 1st fill--I am looking forward to the next 4 to 6 weeks--maybe 12 or 20 pounds gone...who knows...:faint: this is how I feel on many days after my ride. Today--(8.5 miles) It was walking, riding around the fair in my town--but that is what my speedometer said when it was all over...

JC look at you all up early lol.

I have to go pack the girls lunch and I just don't wanna move. Long day for me today.

I am thinking if we bring a tv we can witness the insanity this weekend! LOL

Too early. I gotta run so I can do the jobs I was supposed to run yesterday!

Ugh. Another day another dollar.

Good morning everyone.

i was up at 430 too JC...WOWO.

Trying to eat something this morning, not going down real well...LOL you would "think" I had a restriction...NOT!

D...where you hiding out at???

Had a blood draw at the surgeon's this morning. They are so slow there. Just take my blood and let me get on with things. I didn't even want to see the doc. I'm doing good.

I've got my TO DO lists made for the week. It's going to be busy for me as well....good thing I'm under employed at work. I can get things done for my real life as I sit here getting paid.

BTW, Chicken is the food of the DEVIL. I've not been able to eat it for a full month! My restriction is loosening so I'm trying it again. ACK, not working! I am thrilled to be eating veggies again though! Woo Hoo!

BG you are just a big o' kid, hanging out with the old people this weekend. Can't wait to meet cha.

That's for all of you. JC and HP. D and B, wish you were coming as well. But we'll get it together one day, I'm sure.

Only 4 More Days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey....are we going to eat at the campground sat night??? We could do hamburgers or turkey burgers in foil in the fire pit, with potatoes, and veggies???

I am trying to go cheap if I can...HAHA

I need to change my ticker, I lost 4 lbs!!! Finally!!!

I also changed my fill from this week, to next week....just easier...LOL

Hi Gang!

Looks like everybody had a great weekend. WooHoo HP!!! Sounds like a great ride, and great pics, too!

J - Wish I could be there, too! I agree, though, we'll all have another chance to get together again.

The wife, the dog, and I walked in the 3.5 mile American Heart Assoc Start! walk in downtown Dallas on Saturday. It was fun, except that I walked on pavement in my trail shoes, so my legs hurt like a mofo... There were ~25,000 people walking, so the dog had a wide variety of folks to sniff...

Spent the rest of the weekend getting ready for school, which starts on Wednesday. While you guys are peddaling the highways and byways of Indiana, I'll be getting started on the joyously exciting topics of managerial accounting and managerial finance. Yippee effing tah...

JC - Glad you got the truck back - and just in time for the big trip!

Hope everyone has a great day!

First of all how do you write, "babe magnet"

Babe-Magnet or Babe Magnet? Hyphen or no? I need an answer quickly. I've printed all but the dude's shirts.

Secondly, I'm not prepared to eat at the camp ground. I am going to a restaurant. Sorry, HP.

Even if I were home the idea of a huge ride, then showering then cooking in a decent kitchen wouldn't appeal to me. Eating camp food is even less appealing. I'm going to be hungry and if the food is tough or burnt or gross I'll be more pissy than BG when Michigan loses.

I appreciate the idea of being cheap, but those cost savings are happening for me by camping and not staying at a hotel. However, we don't need to do EVERYTHING together. If it's a burden to eat out we'll just go seperately.

And B-

I have my finance final on Thursday! I can't wait! Holy crap it's been a long 6 weeks. I'm going into it with an A, but it's worth 300 points. I could lose a lot! And probably will!

This school and work stuff is nuts.

HP,

Congrats on the 4 pound loss btw.

I know it's coming off slowly and you don't feel much restriction but you are losing! Woo Hoo!

Off to the gym.

J -

No hyphen...

We need to get BG back into working on winning the lottery so this school and work crap can go buh bye....

B

No hyphen it is.

the iron ons are done.

Yeah HP!!!!!!! Awesome job on the 4 lbs.

Good job on the walk B!

I don't care how or where I eat. I am however bringing ground bologna. That stuff is scared and a must for all camping trips. Yeah it sounds gross but it is delightful. I am even willing to share hehe.

I am working on it still.
