AWESOME day today! Just over 4 miles today including a great 1 mile walk with my wife at the track down the road. She walked the entire mile without stopping! I am soooo proud of her. Before her surgery she couldn't even go past 2 laps which is 1/2 mile. Tonight she walked 4 complete laps and wasn't even winded! I love it! Love ya baby!

So...this puts my total at 125.15 miles for the month.

My bike came in!! I got it put together and got in a mile before having to run my grandson and son around. Came home had leftovers for dinner and put in 2 more miles while watching the end of the biggest loser. So for now my total is 59.44 OMG I might make 60 miles!!! My bike is quiet and the seat is nicely padded. ps I'm gonna make 60 miles before I go to bed tonight!

Go, girl! I love my bike. Only issue is my dadgum tailbone. It is unbearable unless I double over a small pillow and let my tailbone hang off. Okay, I KNOW y'all all needed that info!! Lol. But it hurts!!! No padding left. :(

I can't tell you how many saddles I tried since riding. I like the one I currently have on my bike and it matches also. I found in the past that I had to keep making adjustments to it as I lost weight. A small sacrifice in my mind to reach the ultimate goal.

Keep moving if you are able to do so.

I went back to work two weeks ago, I work 12.5 hr shifts. We get two 15 min breaks and a 45 minute lunch. I jog walk the parking lot during my lunch for 15-20 minutes and walk 7-10 minutes each break. I don't know about distance but I know I'm not sitting on my butt my breaks, and I'm almost at 50 lbs 5 weeks out.

That's fantastic! Good for you on the weight as well as the jog/walk

OK, haven't checked in since I joined, but finally hit 100.6 yesterday. One day to spare haha!

Last month I logged 120 (no idea how I managed that) so I am going to make that my November goal.

Loved following everyone's updates! Great job to all!

Hi all! Even though I thought I wasn't going to be able to hit my 125 mile goal, I am right on track to finish up by tomorrow. Over the past two days I walked 7 miles and rode my exercise bike 9 miles. This brings my total to 113 miles...just need 6 miles today and tomorrow...woo hoo! This challenge is paying off...last night I had to buy a dress for my friend's wedding. I was able to get into a size 14...I haven't been a size 14 in 8 years! I can't wait to push myself even more in next month's challenge. Everyone has done so well...you all are my inspiration :)

      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!
