You might be surprised in the next couple of weeks how your body responds. I say stick with both.

I'm sticking with both, Butter. Chugging along! I hope I start to see some changes in myself. Specifically, I'd like my butt to be in the general area in which it should be!

What is the squatober challenge? I'm intrigued..is it 200 squats/day? I need to do something like that!

My trainer put me up to it; someone started a page on Facebook called 'Squatober', and

The challenge is:

4,000 Squats (Beginner) (~130 Squats/Day)

7,000 Squats (Intermediate) (~225 Squats/Day)

10,000 Squats (Advanced) (~323 Squats/Day)

I'm aiming for 100 per day; so far, so good! Check it out, I think anyone can join.

My stats:

Today - 2.2 miles, 105 squats

Total to date: 4.6 miles, 305 squats

This comment might be in way left field but I need to ask... do any of you use compression garments for stomach arms or legs? Like the runners sleeves or runner compression pants...spanks anything.... do they help?

Shannon

I use something called Flexees ...it's a tank and I wear one every single day (and for workouts also.) They really do help keep everything tight and in place, except for I'm larger chested. No matter how tight my exercise bra is I'm still just not a fan of jumping jacks. <_<

Awesome job on the squats. I don't keep track of mine (maybe I should?) but I've done enough this week to feel the burn during and the pain after! :P

Great job, keep it up!

Current numbers: 35.8 (collectively from spin, treadmill, stairclimber, and running around the gym track.) My next big plan is to take it easy this weekend...

Hi all! I love reading everyone's progress...even if I don't comment on everyone's posts, please know that I'm reading and smiling at everyone's awesomeness! So..yesterday I got in only a 2 mile walk. This brings my total to: 14.13 miles. I have walked 6.3 miles in 3 days. The rest has been on my bike. I wish I could do more walking and running (can't run for my life!) but I simply don't have the time to do this challenge by just walking. I love my bike for this reason. Plus, I can really ramp up my intensity on my bike. But, now that the weekend is upon us, I plan on doing a fairly intense hike (for me)...the hike has a 314 ft gain from the lowest point. I start at 280 ft and max at 544 ft. I love this workout! I hope the weather holds up....good luck to everyone! Let's get the most out of our weekend workouts!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
