I have done one 5k a month starting in October, each month my time has improved! I have my first 10k next month and am shooting for 66 minutes! In September I didn't…

short term rewards
My wife suggested that I come up with some rewards for when I reach my goals: smaller rewards for short term goals, bigger for long term goals. Not really sure what I should "reward myself with" - I'm only a couple of pounds shy of my first short term goal (which is a 15 pound weight loss). Ideas? If I were a woman, it…

Not much, but I'll take it!
So, I have been morbidly obese for most of my adult life and I have been obese almost all my life. I had a small victory today while I was at my gym. For years and years, I have not been able to take my blood pressure in those machines you see all over because my arms were just too big for the cuff. I have had to use the…

How Long Have You Been Here?
I'm just wondering how long people have been involved with MFP for? I've been here 8 months now, have a few friends that have been here over a year. Anyone out there that has been here over a year and a half and is still an active participant on the site? I also wonder what the record for log in days is? Anyone know?
