Can I ask what brand?

Although the rate this is going' date=' I'll be bald from Hair loss pretty soon and won't have to worry about it anyway. Sigh.[/quote']

Biolage is the one Im using now. It's the Step 3 impurity remover. I also will use one called Bumble and Bumble, and also liked Paul Mitchell's Step 3 Impurity remover. I find my hair is more responsive to shampoos if I switch them up, so I pretty much rotate between the 3.

I'm going to go with 150 miles on the bike, AND logging in frequently enough to actually participate in the thread.

I think I would like to start running this month as well, if I can get the courage up to actually get outside and do it. Kinda silly, I guess, to be scared of running but I am!

Check into the C25K app if you want to start running. It's a great program for a beginner.

I actually just finished downloading that app! It looks totally doable to me, I might actually give this a shot. :)

I got in 3.2 miles of bike riding today. I thought good for 9 days post-op. I really wanted to get in one more ride. My ride today will probably be my last ride of 2013. After surgery tomorrow I am restricted from riding for 6 weeks, and unsure how the weather will be after 12/16 release date. Any rides after that date will be restricted to weekends and holidays since it is dark by the time I get home from work.

I start my walking program later this week. Depends on how I feel after tomorrow's surgery.

Hi I'm in but only for the next 17 days... My surgery is on November 21!!! I plan on getting my miles in by heading to the gym and walking on the treadmill for 30-45 min a day. And then look out cause I can't wait until I get cleared to head back to the gym after my surgery! Good luck everyone on the November challenge!

Today was another spend day with kids day. Went to church, played littlest pet shops and made bracelets. Only 2 miles total of 10.21. Getting a bit anxious about surgery on Tuesday spending time with my girls feels right!

Gamegirl,

Haven't you heard of the surgery of the month club? Lol. I had this one originally scheduled in September and it had to be cancelled. I had to get my sleeve surgery and another doctor's visit taken care of before this one could happen. Last week my social calendar revolved around seeing doctors. After tomorrow, I don't have a scheduled doctor appointment until November 19th.

Thanks,

Rita

5.5 miles today for a total of 12.5 miles. That was done on the exercise bike. I didn't make it out for my walk today. I was having tummy issues and took a nap after work. But that bike is sitting right here calling to me to get up off my back side! The bike won! Ha! Sent from my iPhone using VST

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
