Cool bike! I love bikes...still have my first mini-bike that I got when I was five! We have two now, LOVE to ride! Nice to meet another motorcycle friend!

Hey Thanks, It only just broken in. I am highly considering selling it for a sport bike as thats what ive always wanted but have always felt too fat to ride one. But thats changing.

2 hours with a partner is fine! I thought 2 hrs on your own. Phew.

I like that your addicated to exercise. Me too. Sometimes i think i am very obsessive complusive and thats one of the reasons i got fat in the first place. Better to be OCD about exercise than food !

I need exercise. It will help with my mild depression and I bet it will help with the stalled weight loss, too (I'm due for a fill this next Tuesday -- that will help, also, I hope). My problem is this: after I leave my office at night, I CANNOT force myself to go to the gym. And I LOVE my gym, my trainer, etc. I wonder how hard it is to start your day at the gym. Anybody do it that way? Any recommendations from the Vast Sisterhood?

Blessings on you all,

I only get time in the morning! No way i could fit it in at night. Works much better for me. I do have to get up at 4am though as i have to be at work by 7am. I workout 5am-6.15 6.20. Then shower get ready for work and go straight to work. I find i have more energy in the morning and i got used to 4am's after 2 weeks. I make sure i lay everything out the night before as i do not think to straight at 4am!

I forget to pack underware if i dont and it diesnt feel good at work going commando all day!

You like the sport bikes, huh? You like to go fast? LOL Around here it is nothing to see those guys doing 95 down the yellow line in between traffic...scares the crap out of me! Me, I'm a cruiser. My next bike (soon) is a Super Glide.

Yes, I work out with a partner, so it takes longer. He worked my arse off today! Really pushed my limits. We will see if I can move at all in the morning...LOL

A lot of folks get their gym time in in the morning. In fact, it is a widely held belief that there are training and weight loss advantages to working out before Breakfast. I wish I were a morning person, but I definitely am NOT! Good luck and I will be rooting you on to pushing through the "I don't wanna go!" phase! It's a killer, I know!

What are bicycle crunches? Sounds intriguing! Wow...pushups. I can't do those yet. My upper body strength is so wimpy compared to my lower body, it's sad!

whos, did you eat any?

bicycle crunches, not really what they sound like, and I hate them but my trainer is making me do them. Lying on your back, knees bent, arms behind neck, bring your right elbow and left knee together, then left elbow and right knee together, then repeat for 50, then take a break, then do 50 more. My trainer tries to get me to do 200, but I've only gotten up to 150. Never let your feet or head touch the ground during the set (well, your not supposed to, when I'm not with trainer I take a break).

Sorry, not the greatest description...

Good for you, WHOS! You are rocking today! (Ooooo! Hot tub! Yummy!) Hey, I know what you mean about the MP3...it took me a while to get one...but I am so in love with my IPOD now! Here's one that might be good to get you started, though, and it's 1G under $30!

OH! And good news! I can move this morning! I guess my legs really CAN take the beating so much more than my upper body. My arms and chest are still so sore from Monday and Tuesday...and we are doing biceps and triceps today. I think I'm in trouble.

      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... :(
