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.

I so love you. Lol

Got in a 2.5 mile walk yesterday. Haven't had much time to exercise since last Tuesday owing to work schedule. This working two part-time jobs thing is a PITA and I just need to rest a bit. Brings my total to 64.3. Not sure if I'm gonna get to 125 miles this month but this challenge helps to keep me motivated and more active than I would likely be otherwise. I am, by nature, pretty damn lazy!

So two more miles today and I'm not even home yet. But that puts me at 40.2. Original goal met, going for 60 now.

Also going to cancun tomorrow with my darling, much-loved husband whom I have missed lately due to work, house guests, kids starting school, and more work. I plan to snorkel every damn day I can and hang out with him as much as we can. I plan to come back next Thursday all rested and happy :)

Oh how nice! A much deserved break for you...I hope you have fun! And, congrats on meeting your goal. I knew you could do it!

Of course, you will! Besides the " hard cores" (y'all know who you are :) most are just trying to get more active and a challenge gets us moving! Ha!

Redbean, you don't have to get any specific mileage. The whole idea is simply to do more than you would otherwise. To push yourself slightly out of your comfort zone. By logging the miles, you know exactly what you've done. Then, next month, aim to do just a little bit more.

You can do it.

Well it's Monday and again my weekend was a bust as far as getting in my miles. I'm still under the weather but I did manage to get in 9.6 miles on my bike on Friday and Saturday. I slacked yesterday...This brings my total for the month to: 73.27. My goal is 125 miles...I have to get in 5.2 miles/day. I will do my best..not sure if I can do it!

      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.
