    I hope I did that right..I'm such a dork. :)

    Can I share a little secret? One of my goals is to be able to run a race someday.. a 5K. I have never wanted to do a 5K, but since I have been on this journey, I find myself thinking about it more and more BECAUSE I never thought I could do it... and what if I could?! WOW! I don't even want to enter to win... or be the fastest or anything.. I just want to finish. And there's a race right before my birthday in April!!! WOW! It's definitely a goal to shoot for. Once I hit the 50 lb mark, my plan is to do the Couch to 5K program... with this much weight, my knees are not gonna do so hot with me trying to run. I do run some on the treadmill, but I want to be careful. Anyway, listen to me blabber! :)

    Here's to a great week everyone!

    Best,
    Marci

    EDITED: Thanks Susan... see, dorkiness abounds today :) Yes, 145 lbs in 6 weeks is probably a little steep :)

    Marci,
    It looks good, except for I think the Sixers post their Goal Weight for the next six weeks (not your overall goal). Hope that helps.

    GOOD MORNING SIXERS. oops almost put sizzlers. we will be that someday.....:wink:

    boy so many people hard to do personals. so welcome everyone...:drinker: :flowerforyou: as time goes on it will be easier. i guess that means i have to check in more than my 50xs a day i do now. LOL. i do read all the post.

    marcie....i am doing the c25k now. just finished wk2 day2. cooling off than to the shower. there is another one pdxmom who does it also. she didn't join us this challenge :cry: . she is doing great at hers. we also had another one who did or is going to run a marathon. i believe she did the c25k. lauryn can correct me.

    doing great in my neck of the woods. need to shower and get to the store. dogs seem to think they want to eat. i just don't understand that. oh well.

    Lauryn, that is amazing that you drank that many fluids (see below)! I'm impressed.
    I got down 6 cups and thought I was doing good. 2 cups were forced. You'd think I was on a "Survivor" gross food challenge, I was making such a big deal out of it. It just doen't have any flavor! :laugh: And I'm just not thirsty. :laugh: :laugh:
    I promise to do better today.


    [Lauryn's] liquid plan for the day [Tuesday] (haha):

    Morning -- coffee (about 2 cups)
    Morning -- diet green tea (counts for me for 2 cups of water)
    Lunch -- diet Cheerwine (it's a soda for those not from the South wink )
    Afternoon -- 4 cups of water (Nalgene bottle)
    Dinner -- 2 cups of kool aid (counts for me as water)
    Bedtime -- 2 cups of water (straight water..... I'm gonna force this issue with myself)

    Thanks Susan! I use to drink 10-12 cups of water/fluid a day and work out 5x a week (on my lunchbreak, M-F). I lost my job in May and allowed everything to crash down around me. I'm slowly working to rebuild. I'm starting back at the gym next week, I believe. (Gotta make sure the money is there.) I'm working on getting my fluids back up now. Baby steps, baby steps. There is no deadline, no finish line to my weight loss. It's not a race. It's a long term health goal. :bigsmile:

    Welcome Tami!! No worries with the 'late add'. Really, anyone can join anytime they want, they just need to adjust their goals to allow for however many weeks are left in the challenge, you know?

    I hate water. I really drink it though if it's got some Crystal Light-type stuff in it. I call plain water "health juice" in my house to try to make it sound more appealing. As in, "Want some soda with dinner?" "Oh, no thank you, I'm having a big glass of health juice." I'm amazed at everyone who can drink so much water. I used to be so good at it, but it really takes a lot of effort for me to get used to drinking so much plain water every day.

    I do, however, love the couch to 5k program. I broke my foot when I was 13, and C25k is really the only way I can get up to some pretty substantial jogging without hurting myself again. I did it a while back, when I was losing this weight the first time, and it was amazing. Me, a few friends, and our little dogs (only about 15 lbs, but they sure can walk!), were doing 5 and 6 mile walks with a lot of jogging thrown in. I never got my 5k time down to what I wanted it to be (under 30 minutes), but I'm sure when I get down to a better jogging weight, I'll start up on C25k again, and get that time down.

    I hope everyone is having a great day!

    Maggie, What a beautiful picture of your daughter and son to be. You must be very proud. I don't think my daughter will ever get married...(she's 27 and the only one of her freinds with out a husband and child). Me I am the only one of my friends that don't have grand babies. I am sure that this is a good thing.

    To everyone else Hello and hope all is going well today.

    Hello Hello Sixers! I'm glad to see so many new members and WELCOME. We love to listen to your stories so keep them rolling! As we promise to tell you many details in the next 5+ weeks!

    Maggie.... your daughter looks gorgeous and soooo happy. Congrats

    Lauryn- YAY... how is your water drinking going today. I did do my 8 glasses (which is my minimum) today! Thanks for making me be committed to this again. I need this kind of challenge. And to think water drinking used to be a given!

    Cathy- Glad you are still doing the C25K program. I know many members here have tried it and they say it works wonders.

    Slightingscale- I see you have been posting alot. THANKS we need people like you to keep us going! How was your day?

    As for me................................... I think I might have to be Tammara this challenge bc I dont want to confuse anyone. I think we have a few Tammy's this time. However I will probably still sign TAMM, its just a habit! I was running around like crazy today but I did get some things accomplished. I still have decided not to buy halloween candy until the day of event. That way it won't be looking at me every evening! LOL:laugh:

    I hope everyone is doing well and Best of luck!

    Take care,

    Tamm :flowerforyou:
