All my "fat" clothes were getting too tight again. I think I finally got my calorie intake regulated again. I did lose a couple pounds last week. And I'm not riding my bike every day anymore. Mostly because I've been too busy, but I do get on it 3-4 times a week. My husband put more cushioning on the seat so it takes a long time before my butt starts getting sore. Keeping it in the living room helps. I watch TV, read or just listen to my Ipod and watch traffic go by.

The bike definately helps add a ton of miles! Nice work. Have you adjusted the calories you need to intake (to accountant for your lost weight)? I went through a period also where I started to gain, but didn't "see" it in the way my clothes were fitting, so I figured it was just the difference between muscle and fat...

WRITERMOMMY3 - We used a generic 13 minutes = 1 mile formula in the beginning to help log activity time versus a mileage.
Nice to see you back!

I increased the resistance on the bike, so the milage has dropped a bit. I am continuing to track daily, and will get back to checking in every week, on Saturdays I think.
I think before we had also used a formula to turn total fitness minutes into miles, right? I can also keep track of that if I can remember how to figure it out. On the days I don't ride it is usually because I spent the day going crazy with the kids or the yard, so the fitness minutes are there, I just haven't added them.
So anyway, from the last post: 140,866.9 - 149 _________ 140,717.9 Miles left to get through MT
I will check in again soon to see if you come up with a challenge number for the month. I will put in as much as I can.
I want to inspire by my actions, not by what I say I want to do.

I walked 1421.1 miles in one year (4/2/08-4/2/09) so I guess we can figure on doing that many miles plus yours and maybe add another 10% to the total to come up with a target mileage. Would we be posting in a different place? I want to continue subtractig my miles here, too. I have to see this one to the end.

I got feedback from the other MT team: They are doing a similar challenge and the leader thinks it would be fun to join groups, but they have broken it down by monthly goals. I can do the math, I just need feedback to we want to do one year from June as out "desired end date"? That would be one year to finish the mileage? Let me know.

So, miles from 04-28-09 to 05-10-09 = 305.5 On Stationary bike, nothing else added. 141,427.9 - 305.5 _________ 141,122.4 Miles left to get through MT

TOPIC: 
Total for this week, like I said, just stationary bike, 173.3 miles... hope it starts to show on the scale a little more *fingers crossed*
great minds think alike. 
I thought I would add some miles to this since it's been over a year I think. Sorry it's been so long.
