    2.79 today in my first stint back in the gym since being cleared to do some additional structured workout beyond cardiac rehab.

    33.309 miles completed which is 3.309 over my goal for the month. Perhaps I can hit 40+ by the end of the month.


    A couple of NSVs in the last couple of days ... just had my third night of being able to sleep in a bed on my side/stomach. After spending the last six weeks sleeping in chairs/recliners waiting for my chest to fuse and the hinges to heal and despite the fact that it hurt like heck the first couple of nights, last night was almost "normal" and I'm not nearly as sore today as I have been the last two days.

    Went through my closet today and tossed all of my short-sleeved XXL shirts in a box to donate them. Didn't even worry about having to see if any of them still fit. XXL is officially "too big" for me in shirts.

    You are awesome and I'm so glad you stuck around the thread even with limited abilities while recovering. It's people like you that keeps us "regular" folk going. You rock my friend. Great great work.

    Things have been busy for me. I've kept up on my miles, but have been only been reading here but not posting. YOu are all AWESOME!
    @speedy: What an awesome time on that run! Woot!
    @foxbat: You are an inspiration.
    @Janet: Your endurance is incredible!
    @vhuber: You are still the Iron Woman!
    And everybody: You are doing GREAT!

    Yesterday: 5.5 miles on foot, including a 3-mile run. (Haven't gotten beyond running 3-3.5 miles yet.)
    Today: My legs are tired, so I thought I'd rest today. Ended up walking 8 miles.

    I'm hoping for at least one day of decent weather in the next 4 so I can make my biking goal. Predictions are for cold temps, wind, and possibly snow coming up here. :grumble:

    It goes both ways. I found great success in getting motivated at the start of this year when I stumbled upon this thread. Seeing everyone else working toward their goals got me to the point of pushing to meet a goal and then surpass it.

    When I had my bypass surgery, it was seeing everyone else on the thread pushing through that motivated me to stay engaged. I had originally planned, right after my surgery, to just take off the entire recovery period and eat whatever and not worry about any exercise. Instead, staying engaged via everyone else pushing through on this thread made me decide to do the best that I could to stick with my pre-surgery motivation. As such, I've been able to actually continue to lose weight during the recovery period by watching what I eat and also meet my limited miles while recovering. I think sticking with my diet and being motivated by fellow MFPers to stay active have contributed to my continued recovery and progress. Looking forward to getting through this recovery and getting back to seeing how much more I can continue to set new goals.
