Keep riding the bike. It will all come back to you. I am wanting to get a

treadmill because I am an inside person. A friend of mine wants me to join his

gym but it is so expensive. I am a single mother of two. I cant afford the gyms

I have checked out. I will figure it out. I am 6 weeks post op. I have lost

38lbs so far. I have been walking alot and lifting some small free weights so my

arms stay firm. I think you riding a bike is great! I cant believe your honey

picked up the bike first! The mat is a comfort though. I hope you go back out

again. (dont worry about the neighbors)

Oh Im gonna ride that thing if it winds up being a peice of mangled art in

the yard eventually or I wind up in traction, lol.

I am just so excited for us...For all of us!!! Someone said yesterday not

to forget to be excited for the person who loses 5 pounds or even a half a

pound and I couldn't agree more!!! Some weeks all I get is a half of a

pound and the way I look at it is that is better than gaining a half a

pound!!!! I can't wait for the New Year!!! Just think we are all (even the

Pre-Ops) are starting a New Year with a New Attitude totally focused on our

health and we will be here for a few more years at least than we would have

had...had we not taken the plunge with this life saving surgery.

We are ALL truly blessed!!!

Candi

Absoluely Candi! God Bless us all and lets all be thankful for every effort

and stride that we have taken to make this work. Give the shoulders when they

are needed for those of us when we get down on ourselves and have the pat on

the back ready when the giddiness and happiness for doing so well is

acknowledged. We are pretty terrific if I must say so myself! TO THE BEST

SUPPORT GROUP

ON THE WEB...MERRY CHRISTMAS AND GOD BLESS YOU AND THE WONDERFULNESS OF WHO

YOU ALL ARE!
