100 mile challenge



Recommended Posts

It works. I think the key for me is keeping workouts between 30-60 min' date=' no longer, including warmup, cool down and stretching. I have on average 3 hours an evening to spend with my wife, less if I have dead lines to crunch through at work. I do try and get quality sleep at night so essentially retire at 9:30 pm and am up at 5:30 am to do a quick run and then start work at 6am. I workout mid morning and mid afternoon usually. Work is usually done by 6 pm for the day. Run after dinner is new, but I am going to try it for 30 min.[/quote']

So you are working out morning, mid morn and mid afternoon. Wowzers. I'm assuming from that you are your own boss!!!!! :)

Well, doesn't look like I am gonna get to much walking in today. I have had the headache from hell all day. I didn't walk the warehouse at lunch as planned. I plan on jumping on the treadmill for a little while tonight but also plan on crashing early. That just means more to do tomorrow but never giving up! Great job everone on your numbers the last few days. Very impressive. I can't wait to get back to full strength so I can get my numbers up there. Best news is, I get my staples removed tomorrow and move to the pureed stage...real food! I am so tired if sweet shakes. I will still have 3 or 4 small shakes to get my Protein but so glad to also have real food again. Remember, drink drink drink your liquids!

I'm with Laura-v on this one....I didn't start exercise of any kind until nearly 4 weeks after my surgery and it was done laparoscopically! I think you're doing amazing.

Ok' date=' Laura-Ven! LMAO. All that time for a response - I post it - and you got your answer in the meantime. Sheesh. ;)[/quote']

Lol! Well I know that you and fiddle should start your own challenge! You guys can do a 100 in 2 days!! :P

Maybe we should start a thread for 500?

The rest of us poor souls are going to suffer for that 100 :D

Except butter of course we all know he can.

Right butter? Out with the old in with the new :)

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
