i am up to about 75 miles.:bigsmile:

I can now add more miles to my total 49 miles. That's almost halfway. Not to bad for starting late. I should be able to do this. Some of have gone above and beyond, keep up the good work. I forgot to add a 20 mile bike ride last week so that's a total of 69 miles if I'm not mistaken.

I am now up to 39.68 miles total so far. almost half way. I still have a ways to go and a short time to go. We can do it.:smile:

I know I'm late but i went 15.68 miles on my bike today. The weather was great, I dressed a little over worm but its better than under. Several dogs chased me while there owners stood in the yard. I think it is so ignorant when they do that. I start yelling at the dogs and there owners. I passed by an accident that had…

I just tried to fix my bike and bought the wrong size part. So that being said i will begin this challenge late and by walking. At least for tomorrow anyway, I bought an app pedometer for my Ipod touch so this will give me a chance to break it in. Good job everybody that has started and for those of us who are late…

Hey this sounds cool. I have to fix my bike this weekend than I'll start on Monday Nov. 1. I usually ride ten too seventeen miles and when i walk i go four miles. So i usually do something five to six days out of the week. A hundred miles is a great goal. Thanks for presenting your challenge.

Hello ! I am part of the over 300 club part two club. I don't know your situation and that's OK we have people of all sizes on there and we all keep track of each other and share up's and downs with each other and that way our moral keeps up.It doesn't matter when you start as long as you are enjoying it and it helps you…

:smile: Hello everyone, it looks like a lot of you are doing great even with a little pain but you no what they say "no pain no gain" and for us that means increased workouts and more weight loss. Good job! As for myself MFP just told i have hit a mile stone and it shows. I am now running around with my kids more and…

Hey Kristi the weather up her has been fantastic. Glad to see you've reprogrammed,So have i.I learned a number of years ago to use citric concentrate juices when frying things like pork chops, steaks and so on, or use water with a hint of BBQ sauce.Glad to hear your outside.I love to garden although i am not very good at…

Hey guys just checking in. :smile: Big welcome to all newbie's . I just recently lost a few more pounds.Im so excited, My wife and i started eating more fruits.I had heard that if you eat pine apple after a meal it helps you digest better. I think its working, I also believe that more fruits and fresh veges can help. Well…

Hey another no no I'm finding out is even if you lower your caloric intake like i did you still have to balance you're diet.See i lowered my calories but i haven't balanced carbs and proteins.So I'm fighting an up hill battle, what i need to do is balance and a little more fruits and veges.Anyway keep up the good work.

:smile: Hey everybody.Looks like you're all moving along well.I am doing OK. Last night i was having some stress and went into annal fa lactic shock, that;s were you start swelling and itching all over.If it weren't for my wife i would have passed out and who knows what would have happened.All i did was eat dinner and go…

I did half and half over the weekend.Saturday we did house chores oh! and went to a youth soccer game.Then Sunday came and i decided to veg out and watch movies all day by the time evening came we were so full of junk i barely could cook dinner.(my turn to cook.):laugh: Now that its Monday i am regretting the weekend.Now…

Hello! and welcome back.I too have not been very good at logging everything but i have still been strive to be more conscious of what i put into my mouth.The only time i have to log food and everything at the end of the day and when i get to busy to do that i wait until the end of the week when i have free time and by then…

:bigsmile: Thanks Stillkristi.That article makes since.As for Cardio and strength training, this karate class i am in really covers all that and to boot the instructor is a registered nurse and Ive been asking him for advice and stuff.Its funny that we all know what to do but like this article states that you need…

:smile: Thanks for the advice and encouragement.I definitely look forward to the down hill side.So moving forward is the best thing.Talk to you later.

:glasses: Hello ! every body. Ive doing OK.I had a case of the blah's for a while. Now i am feeling better.Sometime it takes all the strength Ive got to get through the week.My weight hasn't gone anywhere for a week or two.Ive stayed with the same program i just think that my body is playing cat and mouse with me.Ive…

:glasses: Hello and welcome. Ive found with portion control that this website has worked for me.Logging my calories has made me conscious of my portions and while logging this information i pay attention to how many calories each item is and then start staring towards lower calorie d items. Good luck and keep doing your…

Hey thanks for the article it makes much more since to me now.I can tell when i haven't had enough water before my work out. I just started a Tae kwan doe class three months ago and if i dont drink enough i get so dry and it takes forever to rehydrate.The cool thing about Tae kwan doe is it's aerobic and strength training…

:love: :flowerforyou: :heart: Thanks for the encouragement.Sometimes that feels better than whats physically going on.Its nice to your out there giving such support.

:laugh: San Diego is so beautiful. We took the kids to Sea world.I thought oh yea whatever but it turned out to be one of the greatest vacations ever.Cool pics. by the way. Also getting back on track is a part of life.I start and stop a lot.The thing is not to revert to the old ways.That is what Ive recently learned.Good…

It all depends on how your body digests. I have found that if i eat a decent meal about two hours before a work out than i am OK.If i eat to soon before a workout i get sick to my stomach.Also depending if my day is too busy than ill eat a light meal afterwords.I try not to eat after nine o'clock at night so i don't store…

I have had 100 + forever.When i am feeling down i turn to my family especially my wife.If your husband cares about what you want in life than you should be able to talk to him about it. Good luck!:smile:

The way i look at it is if i don't eat the hole batch of cookies or cake.As for the rest of those items its OK to cheat ten percent of the time and diet ninety percent of the time.Its all in the head and gaining control is the key.It's not the cookie that will kill you it's the amount of cookies.:laugh:

:glasses: Cool thanks for the welcomes. I am looking froward to the challenges, and finding the new me in the future.

I haven't read the witch books yet but i intend to after the vampire chronicles.I have looked into to those a little bit and it looks like there as good as the others Ive read so far.

I'm with you.I love Anne Rice. My wife read the Twilight series and from what she described to me it sounds OK. I am half way through the vampire chronicles by Anne Rice.She has kept me mesmerized.I have had a hard time reading.So these are great for me.:smile:

Well I found a measuring tape and the inches are moving slowly but surely.My waist hasn't moved but my neck and hips have at least an inch less in the last two weeks. Maybe the pounds and inches don't move at the same time but there moving. I'm happy.:smile:

I would like to measure myself but the kids lost the tape.So soon as i find it I'll come back and tell you. For now since i found the scale i have lost eight pounds total. Three pounds since last week. Hopefully that will convert to inches lost.:laugh:

:smile: Hey that's cool. That is exactly some of the thing i am working on. I'm not a trucker but a forklift driver and sit on my butt all day. So i have to burn lots of energy to lose weight. Now i have something to look forward to. Thanks!:drinker:
