Your story made me cry- sad tears, then happy ones. God bless you, and I wish you a happy, healthy, long life!

Thank you!

I'm in again, with a goal of 200 miles this time. Good luck everyone, and happy cycling:) 2/2: 31.2 miles 2/3: 18.06 miles 49.26 cycling miles so far this month

What a nice thread! I have been having car trouble frequently over the past few months, and have sometimes been commuting to work on my bike. Recently two of my coworkers had car trouble as well- the expensive kind. I joked that we could all ride our bikes in, and they said, "We can't possibly do that! We don't have your…

Hooray!

You are making amazing progress and have changed your life so much in a few short months, all the while remaining positive and upbeat! I am so proud of and very happy for you!

I'm in again with a goal of 250 miles and determination to make it! (Fell short for December with 209.06 miles.) Thanks for doing this thread, CricketKate!

UGH! Goal was 250 miles, but I am falling way short this month!!!! 157.06 cycling miles- may still make the 200 mark. Merry Christmas to everyone :)

Goal is 250, and I need to step it up big time to get there! There are some super miles being posted here- good work everyone :) 12/1: 14.76 miles 12/5: 22.42 miles 12/6: 10.18 miles 12/7: 3.77 miles 12/8: 11.51 miles 12/11: 7.25 miles 12/12: 22.9 miles 92.79 cycling miles so far this month

You can add me if you'd like to! I'm planning to commute to work on my bike tomorrow. Cycling has recently become a passion for me, and I would LOVE to have more cycling friends!

Hi everyone, and thanks for doing this CricketKate! I'm in again, and setting my goal at 250, gulping as I type this and hoping to make it. Joining this challenge last month for the first time helped keep me accountable, motivated, and inspired to reach my goal. Happy cycling :)

Thanks for doing this! I'm really looking forward to it!

Glad to see all the nurses! I've been an RN for about 22 years now, 20 of them working in transplant. I'd love to have some MFP nurse friends, so anyone can ad me.

Congratulations! Good work!

Thanks Djcon!

Hi Mat, Sorry that something happened to cause the rant, but I just wanted to say that I LOVE fellow cyclists who are more experienced than I am. The few times that I have struggled through the MS 150 bike ride, I have received such great support from the ones like you who are far more experienced than me and in much…

Hi CricketKate! It's hard when you have little ones to get in all that you want to do- I remember those days :) Thanks so much for starting this thread- I made my goal of 200 this month

That is absolutely fantastic RaNae! I'm so proud of you!!

Goal is 200 miles. 186.02 done for the month as of today! I was worried I couldn't do it, but am almost there (hooray!) Onwards and upwards! Happy cycling everyone :)

This just made my eyes fill with tears! Big congratulations on the "real" jeans! You have truly made this a lifestyle change and are making great choices every day. I'm so proud of you and am honored to be one of your MFP friends :)

I have creaky knees too, and lunges will probably always be out of the question for me, but working with a trainer has helped. When I first started with him, he had me do sit squats with feet out wider than the shoulders (just going low enough to touch my behind on a bench or chair) then getting back up again. That allowed…

^^^^^ Yay!! That's the spirit!
