I still feel blah and am working on getting back into a routine after the holiday. I did really well to stay away from the sweets and stay active dispite the 8+ hours spent in the car.
In other news, I am out for c25k for the next 4 weeks while I deal with my bad hip. Dr says walking and low impact are OK as long as I don't have any discomfort. I will need to up my nutrition game to offset the restricted exercise.0 -

@SweeteeBri, @Serendipity0913 Thank you so much for the advice about C25K, I'm definitely not doing great when it comes to pacing myself and it definitely needs more work, it probably doesn't help that the manual treadmill I'm using to complete the program has pretty much a permanent incline lol. That being said, as long as there is progress, I don't mind taking longer to complete the program.
As for my last couple of workouts, yesterday I did 45 min on the elliptical and today was gym day with a full body strength training program. Tomorrow is my swimming day and C25K W1D1 version 2.0 lol
@GrandmaJackie I weigh in on Sundays Australia time, aka Saturdays US time0 -

I'm trying to get back into pt. Waiting on insurance to see what they will cover. I am 5ft and my 9lb son sat so low during my pregnancy he almost completely separated my hip and I couldn't walk for 3 months. Fun stuff. He's 3.5 and I'm still having issues.0 -
Hello all!
My name is Amy, I'm 40 years old. Married and mom of 3 kids. I'm at my highest weight ever. ..not counting pregnancy. I'm 190 lbs. My ultimate goal is to lose 40ĺbs and build muscle. I want the strength. I had a personal trainer for a while and was seeing results, but my 11yr old daughter was diagnosed with leukemia at the end of summer 2015...I packed on the weight.
So looking for support, food ideas, workout ideas. If I could lose 10 lbs in this challenge it would be a great start! !
Hello everybody! !I'll join you guys for the c25k...however...where are you getting the program? Is there a website or something to get you started?
Hi Amy!! Please forgive the late reply. Hope all is going well with your daughter. Looking forward to having you in our group. I too am looking for food ideas. I love to experiment with food. Hopefully we can challenge of posting recipes or picts of meals we've prepared Were you able to start the C25K? How is it going? 0 -

Yay!! I love our team.
I'm ok with however you do it. That leaves us with 4 Fridays. It would be nice to have a different person choose the challenges each week. I'm down either way you work it.

I don't have a sweet weigh in day.. Really just anytime I remember and its within the weigh in window! Sorry to be unorganized haha0

This next week I will be doing both challenges again. I am going to be changing the nutrition times a little though. I have FAILED it this week. It's too busy at work and I am starved when business dies. At least I have been making better choices when I do get to eat on the run.0

When it comes to nutrition, how does everyone do it? Do you plan your meals ahead of time or do you just grocery shop and choose from what you have? I am trying to work harder at getting this meal plan thing down and prepping as much as I can on Saturdays as that's when I grocery shop. I created a meal template and I try to map all meals out. It's kind of easier that way as I can just look at the menu and know what to eat. Makes it easier for me to stay on track, and I can plan around my families meals when it's something that I shouldn't have.
