October 100 Mile Challange!



Recommended Posts

Got my first 20 minute walk in between the morning game and my beloved Cowboys game. I'm sure I will get more exercise in yelling and throwing my arms up durning the game.

Hello everyone. I got out and walked then my grandson wanted to ride bikes. So I got in a total of 3.87 miles today for a total of 8.61 so far. It was my first bike ride in well over 3 months. It was a short one, but was after a 2 mile walk. So I am good with it B)

Added a short walk with the husband for a new total of 9.48 woohoo. He is recovering from quadruple bypass and told me I could walk with him if I didn't walk to fast lol. So off we went slow and steady. Thanks for this challenge????

Everyone is doing so grwat! I feel like such a slug cuz I haven't had a chance since last Thursday to get any exercise. But we took a 3 me walk today so that puts me at 20.5 miles so far. I hope I can keep up. My work schedule has become a little crazy working two part-time jobs.

That's further ahead than I am! Enjoy your progress.

Hi Everyone! My name is Heather and I'm new to this wonderful site! Hope it is OK to do the 100 mile challenge this month with everyone since I do not have a surgery date yet. I am still waiting for everything to be reviewed by the doctor and then the waiting begins for the "approval" ! I figured this is an awesome way to get the ball rolling... :)

oooooh, I'm late to the party but I'm in!

I just got a new bike so I'll be logging my biking miles with an aggressive goal for me of 300 miles for the month.

I started on the 3rd so far I'm up to 34 miles so I've got some catching up to do if I'm going to make it to 300!

MY FITBIT BATTERY DIED. It logged NOTHING. I am a bit OCD so if it's not logged' date=' I cannot/will not guesstimate. I get a big fat zero for that day.[/quote'].

Lipsticklady, that seems like an awful lot of activity to take a zero for! You don't want to take an educated guess? Maybe based on steps or time or something? Just sayin, that would KILL me!

Kudos on your activity level, though. Pretty impressive!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
