Today I will 460.gif in the office and do the 3 mile Walk Away the Pounds Tape at home. I am wearing my pedometer today. Hopefully I be donig a little stripperonpole.gif later. Burns lots of calories you know.

OOooooooo

Are you ..stripping? Or are you just going to dance... or are you seducing? I can't tell which one you are incenuating.:guess

Julie, that's great girlie. Keep up the cardio and focus on the muscle groups. Really take your time with the weight training. Don't rush it. Feel each muscle working as you lift. Concentrate on those biceps :eek: I hope you show us one day some crazy Arnold Schwartzneggar pecs and biceps! LOL

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!

You go get em BPM!!!!:clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

*Stands over BPM and frowns* "Get up SOLDIER!!! NOW DO 100 MORE MILES!"

Yes Drill Sergeant!

(Picture Bill Murray in Stripes)

My goal is to be riding 100 miles a week within about 90 days.

I am riding on pavement now so my Mtn Bike isn't the greatest choice as the tires are set up for off road and have a lot of drag but that just means I am working that much harder.

:heh:

Yeah, that's awesome! That just means you would do 20 miles a day for 5 days. That's not bad! You'll hit goal in no time at that rate.

Greatdame,

You have a whole new fitness center in your home. That's great! You should start there. Also, to switch things up a bit, if you want to walk outside for a few miles then that would be a great change of pace. A bike works the same way. I started my weight loss with my bike. It's all in my journal.. (biking 6.5 miles, working up to 16.5miles, then 31.2 to 35 miles) Lost lots of weight doing it but you can lose just as much with exercise equipment.

What I personally like about the bike is that it is low impact and you can stay in "the zone" for a long time so you will be burning fat rather than muscle.

Plus it's great fun...at least once your in shape enough to enjoy it. :heh:

Whoohoo, this morning I ran 5km in 30 minutes! I'm training for an 8km fun run in September so I need to work on both speed and distance. That's my best performance to date.

Another 10 miles today. We (wife and I) rode the same route.

I did it much faster but it hurt more. My seat makes my entire crotch go numb and lose feeling. My butt is ok....it's the other that can't take it. My bike has a racing seat on it and it's very small and points upwards where it seems like it shouldn't.

I am going to try buying a new seat today and see how that goes.

Oh yeah...... :faint:

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
