Have you guys thought of creating a beginner's thread with a 50 mile threshold? I don't know if it would be redundant or motivating? I can imagine a few people out there wouldn't want to sign up for 100 right away, but 50 is easier to contemplate for someone who hasn't been active for a long time.

Thoughts?

It's just for motivation anyway! I never thought I would seriously be able to do 100 miles last month. My average was about 1-2 miles a couple to three times a week!!!! So.....

I say, just join in - kick it into gear - and do what you can! Nobody on here cares if it's called "100 mile" challenge! We are all just doing what we can!

If you do 50, that's 50 you didn't do last month!

True! and besides, this is my new mantra these days.

I do love it . Except I don't know if it necessarily calculates my strides 100% because I'm so tall . It's nice because I have the app on my phone I can track food ' date=' fluids , my weight , set goals for myself . I don't want something where I'm going to have to document my life in it if you know what I mean.[/quote']

Yes, I do know what you mean... I log my diet and workouts thru mfp. I watched the video on fitbit and was so intrigued!

Howdy and welcome. You don't need MFP for this. Just come to this thread and post your daily mileage. Keep your running total. Set your goal and go for it. We all root for each other.

Ok I've only got about 1 mile in to day but I caught somebody's stomach bug and have been sick of 2 days. But I got approved today so I'm so excited waiting for date to be set.

Just got home a little while ago. Feel fine as long as I don't move too much. Not sure how much of that is related to these pain meds but I'll take it. If this is as bad as it gets I'll be ok. Worst part is I'm already bored.

Damn....edited to say...thanks very much for asking.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?

      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
