Hi guys--

Ya know how the docs want us to exercise after our bands? But all I wanna do is sit in front of my puter on lapbandtalk.com? How about putting a generator on an exercise bike attached to the computer so the computer will only work when I'm riding the bike? Hmmmm...maybe I should patent that...any investors out there?:biggrin:

LOL!!! that is hilarious!! what a creative mind. To bad I don't have any money to invest. All mine is in my gas tank!!

I love the thought! Lets see how much I have after I pay bills...mmmmmmm would 50 cents help? :biggrin:

lol nice idea

You know that is so funny cause as i read this & type I am on my bike!!! I have not been banded yet still waiting on insurance approval but i am trying to get myself in the habit of some things now. I made it up in my mind that for now on i will not get on my laptop unless i am on my bike. Good thought uh! lol

Now this is a good idea! I like the way you think.

I would buy that - let me know if you get any investors LOL

Funny you should post this yesterday at lunch my friend told me she rides this thing all day called the Stamina InStride Cycle. She sits at a computer all day and just cycles. I was going to try and find one she said she got hers at Walgreens.

I actually walk on my treadmill with my laptop on the tray and chat on lapbandtalk, while walking for 30-45 minutes.

I play guitar hero when I'm on the treadmill!! Makes 40 minutes go by way faster!! Took a while to get the hang of it but now I'm rockin out pretty good!

Yep they have em on their website InStride Cycle XL | Stamina | Walgreens

thats the XL version they have a smaller one that is cheaper also

Now all i need is someway to be able to use it and have my keyboard in front of me at the same time. lol

O.K. there are some talented people on here! I have trouble typing while at my desk. I can't even picture me trying to cycle and type at the same time!:smile:

Awesome idea! I just ordered an elliptical with a 7-inch TV screen.... I will only watch TV while working out during the first month so I can get in the habit!
