November 2009 Mile Challenge



Recommended Posts

I just found this challenge, did not get my goal in at the first of the month. I am a walker, aerobic in the morning, and then track with my Omron pedometer through the day. I started parking at the far end of the parking lot at work .7 miles from my truck to my desk, and another .7 back in the evening. So far, I am at 91 miles so far, well on my way to the 100 mile goal I have for the month. I am going to hold it to 100 miles for Dec also, but may have to get some "mall walking" in if the weather turns cold.

Total for the month 40.50 miles

.50 over goal...

I did very well on Thanksgiving. I did not go for seconds and I only had one piece of pie. Last year I would have had seconds and tried every dessert available.

November was a disater for me. Its gotten colder here and barely did any walking. I finally saw the movie Mamma Mia, which got me to dig out my Abba Greatest Hits. I've been dancing to it for 30-45 min 3 times a week, so at least I'm burning off calories, plus having fun.

Congratulations to everyone who made their goal, or at least tried.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
