October 100 Mile Challange!



Recommended Posts

What a day! Went to Dallas last night with the wife. We had to pick up her mom at the Dallas Airport today. That place is a zoo! We walked the entire Grapevine Mills Mall as well as a lot of walking around in the airport due to her mom's 2 hour delayed plane. We walked a total of 4.9 miles today. My wife did great! She is well on her way after her surgery. I am extremely proud of her!

That puts my total for the month at 92.60 miles! 11 days to go...No problem for another 38 miles.

3.0 miles walked today. The wife and I went and knocked out a little Christmas shopping. She took the new profile picture for me. We even picked up a little early Christmas present for her....a Fitbit Flex. No we are both tracking mileage!

So, that puts my total at 95.6 miles for the month. I should break 100 tomorrow easily!

my total is 40.25 so far. I know I am lagging behind. Been fighting fatigue the last week. My night shift and little sleep kicked my back side. I am happy that our park and lakes are back open so hope to pick up my mileage.

Another 2.1 today puts me at 42.4.

well my big achievement today was that I napped like a champion! All two hours between 11 and 1. Is there a challenge for that? One measly mile today for a 43.4

Wow! You're giving your new bike quite the workout! Good for you. It's all about starting out treating that b/tch the way you mean to go on! Don't let her get complacent. :P

Seriously that's very cool and it's not easy to do so good for you.

Hi everyone, I have logged another 14.8 miles which puts me at 47.2 miles. I will get my 50 miles in by Thursday. Surgery is on Friday so don't expect to get much more in for the remainder of the month.

      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.
