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...

D!!!!! Way to go.....see all the 200+ miles you are ahead of me is paying off....hahahaha!!!!

I am seriously so proud of you. You are working so hard and are a great inspiration to all of us.....

Awe, you two are so awesome!!! I needed a loss. I have been playing with same ten pounds since April!!!!

I went riding this morning by myself. No DH. Just me. SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Don't tell him, but I really loved it!!! I love riding with him too, but wow, it was so nice to be out there by myself. I went 22.85 miles in 1hour 24 min. I might just do this more often.

B???

JC?????

where are they?

Enjoying their new life I suppose.

D....I know...mine does not want me going alone either....LOL I even have gone some with just my girls....he was not too happy. Just having no one but you to challenge can be relaxing and fun...but......I also enjoy having all of them with us......We are riding tonight as well. It is nice, low 80's and low himidity. I am excpecting high 90's this weekend and high humidity...yuck!!!!

Hey guys.

Remember a couple months ago when I posted about the flip flops I was crocheting on? Yeah.. well. I have WAYyyy too many and need to get rid of them. I opened up a shop on etsy.com. If you get bored, check it out - then pass it on. here is my URL: Etsy :: suzzzie :: Fluffy Floppers

As for my food issues... I started with a cookie this morning... only to find that about 2 bites in I was stuck. I love my lap band! Lol. I just ate one mini cheese pizza, which was MINI - mabye 1 1/2 inches from top to bottom. Since it was bread-y I feel quite satisfied. Trying to work on my water now. I've been bad about that lately. Dinner will be a veggie "chicken" patty and some green beans.

(BTW, the last of the cookies are in the trash.)

Traci, I thought I was gonna fall on the floor when I saw what your exercise ticker said. That is so funny!!! I love it.

ZZ, I will go look right now.

Oh and ZZ, good for you on the cookies. Tomorrow is pay day if I remember right for you......NO JUNK FOOD. I WILL BE HIDING IN YOUR STORE WATCHING YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ONLY HEALTHY FOODS!!

ZZ, helping a fellow bandster and biker out. NOW, you have to get to the gym this week!!!! I did for you, now you do for me.....heheheheheh...
