Sustain it? Not sure. :) however, the plan is to try.

Well then you are a machine....I most certainly am not. I'm going to do well to get 100. My typical average is probably closer to 70-80...so just trying to challenge myself to do more than I have before.

Yes you can include all of that stuff...moving and breathing...that's the goal.

And damn...I have that song on my running playlist...but shhhh...don't tell anyone.

I think you can do it....honestly...I think you can do more. The way you've broken it down...I don't think 300 is going to be enough of a challenge for you. Come on slacker....how many can you really give us?

Just rode the recumbent bike 3.11 miles in 13 minutes averaging 14mph. That puts my total at 6.6 miles. I should break double digits tomorrow. My lower incisions started aching a little after staple removal today but feeling GREAT!!

I rode 14.2 miles tonight, popped my chain off (put it back on) and saw 4 deer. I now have a total of 41.6 miles leaving 58.4 miles remaining. I am waiting to hear from my doctor to see how long I will be out after a surgical procedure on Monday. Not my sleeve :-( I may have to switch over to walking if I don't finish by Sunday. Now hope the weather holds it has made it so much more enjoyable.

Thank you so much for starting this thread. Near the end of September, we will have to set up an October challenge.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
