100 mile challenge



Recommended Posts

WHEW! I did it...broke the 10 miles mark today for the first time and I am whipped! I did a 2.56 mile ride this morning, walked 3.41 miles today as well and I just finished a 20 minute 5.4 mile ride on the recumbent bike. That put me at 11.37 miles for today and a grand total of 80.5 miles. I have to admit, I am amazed at myself and where I have come from to now. This challenge is awesome and exactly what I need! Thank you BTB and everyone else for the motivation!

Hey I'm new but I'm up to 7.5 miles toward my goal of 50 by sept 30th MY surgery date!

Great. Welcome aboard. Good luck on making that 50 miles. That extra push of fitness now will pay off in a better recovery later.

Update: mowed my lawn tonight for an extra 2 mile of walking. 1/2 acre - I think that distance is about right according to this link: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090605065701AAM0eaM

Gotta rake in the miles from any activity. :)

+2 for 112.5 total.

Sorry was flying yesterday... Total with yesterday and today, 81 miles! Woot!woot! Also an NSV... While I was waiting on my mom to land, I parked and went into the airport and walked around baggage claim, I had around 45 minutes, did over three miles, and as I was walking, I had to control myself because my body wanted to run....WANTED TO RUN !? what? I had to give myself a mental pat on the back... It was awesome!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
