    OMG I do NOT feel good, more like death knocking!! But I MADE myself complete my weightlifting schedule from ChaLean Xtreme AND I walked 1 fifteen minute mile and was toast!!! This is a wicked flu, lets you feel pretty good then it sucker punches ya! Nasty cheater but I am fighting it!!!!!
    Good job EVERYBODY!!! We can do this!!!! I set my goal for only 60 miles cuz I new with all the Turbo Fire and ChaLean X that it would be tough to wedge in miles like I did in the Dec. challenge!! But anyway sick or not I WILL hit that goal!!!

    First of all, vhuber: I hope you feel better very soon! I really admire how you persevere and workout even though you're sick!

    Okay, update to me: 4 more miles on the treadmill for me today.

    I hope I'm not being premature with this, but I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that I will make my goal for this month! (And I'm a rookie, too!)

    Are we going to do this for Feb? I'm way too late to do this for this month.

    @ cjsgrimlin: Nice, you are moving for January already. Well done, I'll add you to the spreadsheet.

    Even if we all stopped moving today - which doesn't seem likely - it would still be a successful challenge with over 1,500 miles logged. There's a good chance that about 20 of us will reach our goals the way toots99 already did. :drinker: .

    My new year resolution was/is to move 2011 miles, so I'm going to keep logging my miles for the next months anyway. Now, if there's going to be a February MYA Challenge I'll be glad to join. I can also keep keeping track of the miles if you want me to.

    I was too tired to post last night after I got home from the gym, but I updated my ticker with my 4.3 miles on the TM...and I've reached my goal! I was going save some for today, but right about the time I was ready to hop off, Van Halen came around on my playlist and told me to "Come on, Baby, finish what you started...!" :-D

    Going to continue and see how close I can come to last month's goal I was short on...75 miles.

    Good luck to everyone still moving! You can do it! :)

    I ran/walked 6.5 miles today in 1 hr 15 mins.
    Temperature 4C/ 40F but felt a little colder due to the northern wind, clear skies. Perhaps this is no big deal for the US mainland, but for Athens its considered cold.

    are you talking to me???
    if you are...here is the directions for how i did it...

    First i used www.mvm.com to make the models at 10lb intervals from my high at 254.8 down to my goal weight of 145 and then saved each picture to my computer. Then I opened a word doc and placed the pics in order from big to small. I ended up taking out a few pics to make my 1/2 point right at my approximate 1/2 way point.
    Then I saved it as a PDF and the exported to a jpg. Lastly I uploaded it to the MFP website.

    Let me know if you need more help.

    hey, sorry I was MIA.

    My goal, for January, was to walk 50 miles and I have achieved my goal. I might still walk since the month is not over..who knows.

    Have a great evening!
