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...

You guys just don't know how tempted I am to drive back up to Indiana and re-ride that course on the new bike.

D, I will give you one guess as to who was the first to spot the bra and panties!!!!

So what is it like??? Is it easy to get use to?? What kind of pedals do you have??

you know, if I could stay longer I would take you up on a ride and rent a bike in a few weeks...but o well...

Kickboxing is super fun and an amazing sweaty workout. The morning after kickboxing....not so much fun and not so fascinating sore muscles.

Someone please, please put me out of my misery.

Ticker change...........Damn it is getting so close.

way to go staci...excellent loss this week. you realize how close you are to wonderland>>>>>>

WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

BG, I think you and kickboxing were made for each other! Pickle juice or time will ease the pain. Way To Go on the ticker move you are (kicking) ASS!

HP, the new bike is amazing. It has a lot of carbon fiber so its light, but it also has vibration dampers throughout. The handle bars are what will help me ease into road bycyling. They are at a neutral position right now, like a mountain bike. When I get used to this adjustment from recumbent, we will adjust the bars down into a more aggressive posture. Once I get used to that we will put road bike handle bars on it and it will be a traditional road bike.

The pedal are the toe clip deals I don't like the straps and will eventually take them off and put a set of the click style pedals on. I am going to have to wait for a couple paychecks to come, I just bought a Honda EX Four Wheeler.

I know HP, I can almost smell it.

JC I will take time over the pickle juice. If I drink that I am going to retain at least 21.4 pounds of water and I would rather be in pain.

I have to go get my wench costume this weekend.

and the smell is growing sooooo badly!!!!

JC....you must be made of cash...good grief.....now a new 4 wheeler???

LOL

Hi all

CONGRATUALATIONS on the 2 pound BG. I'm envious of the workout. You can keep you sore muscles though. Wench outfit? It's a little early for Halloween...are you into role playing or something?

JC

Damn man, you buy lots of toys! Holy Crap. But you have fun with them too, and that's what it's about.

HP

Glad to see the fill and the doc visit went well.

Hey B, Hey D!

HP, I make a fair amount of money, but I save in a lot of ways too. Both of my vehicles are older but they are paid for and I could live in a bigger house but the one I am in will be paid for soon as well. I am concerned however that I have traded eating for spending and I do need to get a grip on that, but this new 4-wheeler is soooo cool. LOL

BG, I know where you are coming from on the pickle juice thing, but it does give relief. I think you are just into the pain thing. Remember, happiness is someone leaving a Mag Light in your chair! LOL

I also think a wench is a good choice, or.... a Detroit Linebacker.

On second thought maybe I should have said tight end! I don't want you kicking my ass for suggesting the wrong position.

Good morning J, I didn't see you hanging out or I would have said Hi sooner.

JC

I just got here.

I've actually been doing a little work at work, in the kitchen.

Do you all realize I work in a mother effin kitchen?! I know you do because I talk about it all the time, But for f's sake...It's a perpetual struggle.

Really, it could be worse, there are many times I don't care, but today the smell of bacon is in the air...

Complaining is over.

You know if you give up carbs you can eat bacon....

Hell no I do not do that role playing shit. The wench outfit is for a wedding. Dan's weird friends have decided it is a renassaince theme so the guest have to come in costume. I am waaaay too cool for that but hopefully I won't see anyone I know lol jk. At least the corset will make me look thinner with huge boobs. I need some boobs. Or a mag light in my chair...

You guys crack me up!

J, I would be a binge and PB fool if I worked in a f-ing Kitchen. You are tougher than I am no doubt!

BG, This is for a wedding?!? WOW

BTW, BG Hearts Mag Lights. LOL

I have to get some work done around this house. Monday will be here in a flash and I am not ready to go back to that place. I should never take so much time off from work again, because I have no drive or motivation to go back.
