November fitness challenge



Recommended Posts

I walked 2 miles at lunch. This weekend I'll figure out the bike commute - there was a trailer truck on fire on the side of the highway in rush hour last night, further cementing my zeal to never again use my car to get to work.

I upped some of my weights last night at the gym - fueled either by road rage, sugar or increased strength.

OH! And I ran last night!!!!!! Not much, but I really really want to start, and so I did (stressed sugar imbibing at work that day may have helped the run as well as the weights :-)).

I plan on a ride when I get home tonight. Had a crazy busy morning right up to going to work @ 3 pm. I may just take today as a rest day. I'll check in tomorrow with miles:)

I'm in. I'm Carson and I didn't "officially" join for October even though I am trying for the 100 mile mark. I am at 93 miles and some change so far so I should make it, I started out strong but then we got some rainy weather and had some busy days at work and blah blah blah. It doesn't matter. I'm shooting for 125 miles walked/run/elliptical (I'm doing couch to 5K as well, just can't seem to get through the week 1 completely and I alternate that with my elliptical). I also am going to shoot for a resistance work out 3 days a week. Let's GET IT y'all!

Hey a neighbor! I am in Haughton right down the road. I grew up and work in Shreveport. Welcome aboard!

First day of the new month is now in the books. 3.85 miles walked. Knee has been feeling pretty good the last few days. I am hoping to get a ride or 2 in this weekend now that all the rain is gone. Let's have a great month everyone and welcome to all the new faces! Come on in, do what you can but most of all...have fun!

I did 4 double unders in a row which is 4 more then I have ever done :) working towards 100 in a row by end of month.

Today: 2 miles, 195 GHD sits, 182 back extensions and 22 double unders in a 9 min workout. My infantile skill at double unders held my total reps back. Tired and aching after this week...

Still am trying to do a single overhead squat and failing. Will keep working at it. On my 6 month plan to do 1 - lol.

30 min on the elliptical today and almost 2 min plank last night- my penance for the crimes I committed yesterday at the company potluck. Working out with my trainer tomorrow so no gain but no loss expected. Going to a wedding tomorrow and I have house guests this weekend. So not good eating likely to continue. So glad I am upping the exercise this month!

Thanks Butter for the challenge :) Ok time to jump back in. Threw my back out about 6 weeks ago I think and have been rehabbing I have slipped discs that act crazy sometimes worse than others. Pretty intense pain sometimes :( I was riding my mountain bike 4 x week before that... I'm gonna jump back on the bike and work through the pain! My goal for November is light for what I was doing before but chiro says to ease back in so 5 to 8 miles a week walking and biking this month to get things going again.

      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?

      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
