    OMG Best afternoon ever!!!!!!

    I slept in this morning because I was feeling really tired and decided to workout after work instead of before work. I was a little nervous that it would be a half *kitten* workout but I pushed myself. And what do you know- 3.62 miles in 41:52 seconds. I did the 5k in 36:01 which is at least 12 minutes faster than my 5k that I ran in September. I am soo excited I really feel like I can accomplish my 5k that is on June 25th with some solid results. Just so excited and had to share!!!

    Well, I never set goals for May!! :ohwell: Was too afraid to disappoint myself but also didn't have anything to hold myself accountable. However, I will be setting goals for June!! And I am fully prepared to blow them out of the water!! :bigsmile:

    shelsab-keep up my 10k running schedule, lose 5lbs, strength training 2x week, 3 yoga classes.

    AFM: Here was my May goals. I didn't get to keep up on my 10k training due to my pulled muscle. I will continue it this month. I lost 2 lbs this month. Strength training was good, but zero classes for yoga. Overall it was a good month, would have been better if I had not pulled a muscle, but it was a good lesson. Now I will post my june goals!!

    Ok well here's my "official" update... Time's still tight tonight but I'll see what I can fit in. Your goals are so inspiring! Welcome to all the new ladies and welcome back to all the returning challengers :bigsmile: So happy to see you all here ready to kick *kitten*! I'm definitely going to need all your help to keep this thread going this month, since I am totally swamped with life. So please keep it up! I know we can keep this thing moving - It's really worth it! :glasses:

    Here are my May goals...
    meagalayne - get back into my maintenance range and stay there, log food no more than 5 days/week, complete weeks 2 and 3 of the push-up challenge, make it to 4 spin classes, increase H2O consumption, and find ways make each day great!

    I weighed-in in last Friday 1.1lbs under my maintenance range, which is a success in my opinion since I had been down about 2.5lbs from my range the week before. I am definitely struggling with body image, and feeling really conflicted about weight vs. appearance, and how it's possible to look emaciated and flabby at the same time (yea, I know, I'm hard on myself - live with it!) but overall I think my weight is pretty stable - so NO weight goals this month!

    I definitely logged a LOT less than anticipated. I even took a full week off. It resulted in a slight gain but I needed it. I'll continue to take my weekends off, and just "list" the foods I eat.

    The push-up challenge sucks. I must have forgotten how much it sucks. I bailed on it - totally not a quitter but I definitely quit that garbage after week 2. Just not for me.

    I think I made 3 spin classes, but with all the work nonsense, I'm calling that a win. I'm going to try and maintain a spin-class-schedule with work but we'll see how I can manage. Next week I've got a race mid-week so it could be tight. Only time will tell!

    WTR water, see my push-up comments. I despise forced h20 consumption. Eff that. Never making it a goal again - I just can't do it! Summer will be much better - as the weather heats up I'll be drinking a LOT more. My new job should help too.

    And lastly - Trying to make every day great and put myself first. That, unfortunately, includes cutting out my MFP time some days. I hope you ladies understand :flowerforyou: It's not personal! :tongue:

    June goals:
    Angela4Health -run 60 miles in June and eat clean for 29 of the next 30 days
    CCSunlight- Drink at least 8c of water a day, lose 8 pounds, and make sure to stay on track as I move and settle in

    Mariababe81 (Mariam): I want to keep up with c25k and get to week 8 by the end of june, to continue zumba once a week and shred on days i cant run, get back to my clean eating!!!

    kafoteh (Kristin): *Lose 2-5 lbs *Workout at least 4x a week and at least 45 mins each session *Go to the golf driving range at least 3 times this month
    guamgrly (Bethany) - no scale!! Focus on the lifestyle, the routine, and meal planning. Work out 3x per week. Drink 8 glasses of water per day. Eat more fruits and veggies
    shelsab (alexis)- lose 5 lbs. Strength 3 x week. More veggies. Read more. Find some new healthy meals to make.
    tjradd73(Tara)- lose -6.0llbs, follow my new workout plan every day, try 2 new recipes, <1400 cal avg/week, and <4 days over cals total.
    meagalayne- get settled into a fitness schedule that works with my new job and stay accountable, continue logging only 5 days/week, drink at least one cup of your coffee black every day (trying to cut back), make 3 spin classes, and make fitness social at least once a week (cycling, running, walking, something - not including baseball games on Wed night)

    My biggest struggle is balancing my desire to train HARD and still spend time with my family/friends. I'm hoping that I can settle on some social fitness vs. hard training without feeling like I am really letting myself down. Once a week seems like a reasonable accommodation.
    Some of you who have been around for months and months may remember that I cut out sweetener entirely in March - Still haven't had a single instance of relapse (woot woot!) and now I am tackling the soy milk in my coffee too. Trying to get to a point where I can drink it black 100% of the time. We'll see how it goes - I still LOVE my soy! :heart:
    Lastly, I am going to try my best to continue experimenting with food when I can but this will have to be mostly on the weekends because I just don't have the time during the week... I really need to figure out some good, healthy, low-GI and unprocessed/clean lunch options OTHER than salad for work. Making my lunch at night is becoming a HUGE hassle because everything is a) the same and b) very labour intensive to make. If you have any suggestions I'd love to hear them.

    OK I better get going. I hope you all are having a great start to June. I'll try to keep up, but I really won't be posting as many direct responses as I used to. Please know that I AM reading all your posts :flowerforyou: Keep it going, ladies!!

    just a quick post to say welcome to all the new members, and i'm looking forward to seeing how everyone does this month.. i know we'll all rock it!!
    Tara- i was at 149.0, which gave me a loss of 3.5 since my last WI... just hoping i can keep it below that number this time!

    ugh i was so stressed out today between work nonsense and now dealing with grad school admissions BS that instead of emotionally eating, i emotionally struggled TO eat lol.. was a bit low in the cals today, but oh well.. just gotta get through my shift tonight and then hello vacay!!

    Morning everyone! Welcome to all the newbies!

    I weighed myself as a starting point for June and I was the same as last week ,thank god. Now if only I can get it lower by july haha.

    Woke up this morning and did a 45 minute jog, only burned about 300 calories but since I am training in a zone 2 right now it is good for my endurance. It will be nice when I have much longer distances.

    Have a great day peeps!

    Good morning! And welcome, everyone -- new and returning!

    June started off not-so-swell yesterday. I got up early in hopes of getting my run in before the heat, and it was miserable. I just simply couldn't run past 25 minutes. It was so hot (90 degrees at 9 am!) and humid and my route had absolutely no shade. So I need to figure something out in terms of how to get runs in when it's sweltering hot out there. No treadmills, though. My eating has been really good this week, though! I went to Atlanta with husband this past weekend and there was no stopping me... I ate anything and everything and didn't think twice about it. Luckily though, my weigh-ins haven't shown a gain this week.

    I'm loving everyone's goals this month. They definitely give me some good ideas for coming months!

    Hello Ladies!!

    Shannon- the heat can be a total killer on the workout. I'm sure it was just an off day and that you'll figure it out and be back to your 30+ min runs in no time!!

    Aly- I can't remember if you decided to do the no scale challenge as well. Either way, now that your celebrations from getting engaged (YEAH!) have slowed down I am sure you will get everything worked out to perfection and drop some l-b's in no time!

    Allie- I am glad you were able to avoid the stress eating. I have found myself having to give myself a little reminder that stress does not equal stuff your face. In fact I now would much rather go for a jog on the treadmill!!

    AFM- did bootcamp this morning which was kind of tough seeing as how I really pushed my legs yesterday with the 3.62 miles. I am trying to remember if I ever ran that far when I was in high school and I don't think I did. Either way I am so proud of myself and can't wait to run again tomorrow. I'm not sure if it will be 3.62 again, but I feel a full on 5k coming :)

    hey everyone!

    rest day today! had to improvise yesterday with my run as hubby was at a work meeting and i wasnt able to run outside! instead i jogged on the spot for 36 mins whilst catching up on telly! lol! was also using 3lbs weights! worked up a sweat and i have horrendous DOMS today! lol! but i was sooooo pleased! i jogged for 35 mins flat! no stopping! yay! will have to see if i can do that on the ground now! im going to do week 4 tomorrow. atm i can just about manage 2 days running, work is sooo busy as we have a project finally coming to an end. so life should get easier! being a full time working mummy is hard work at times! lack of sleep doesnt help when my little monster wakes up in the night lol! so having a much need rest day today!

    oh small nsv- my pair of size 8 and 10 shorts (us 4 and 6) arrived today! so pleased with them as they fit! the 10s are a bit loose! lol! but im such a prude, ive not worn shorts before so feel a bit self conscious and not sure if i can carry them off!

    oh and day 2 of no scale challenge done! yay!

    Mking- Sorry I am really bad at remembering names. At first I wasn't going to check the scale at all until the end of June. But since I feel like I can really get a hold of it this month I think I am going to keep checking weekly. It is only about 8 weeks until my race and then I can get into real weight loss mode, it is just tough with all the training I am doing.

    I am starving today! It is the fiance's birthday today so we are going to go to a german restaurant. I think I am going to stick to the saurkraut dishes and only have 2 beers at dinner. I am glad i ran this morning so I can enjoy it. I also have a long swim tomorrow 1750 yards, so it should be ok. I hope everyone is having a good June so far!

    Ladies!

    I have a feeling June is going to be a good month! Looks like everyone is excited to jumpstart the summer. Since I've gotten my gym membership, I've gone ever day except for 2 days! Today, I went to the gym for my lunch break and I plan on returning after work since I'll be at a birthday celebration dinner and going away party. I'm also going to Bourbon St. this weekend, but vowing not to drink a Hand Grenade (the number 1 ingredient is High Fructose Corn Syrup...GROSS)

    Have a great Thursday!

    Oh my word - Today has been CRAZY! Love to see all the action here but I just can't comment today. Hopefully Ill be able to sneak on tonight before bed, but I will definitely be posting tomorrow. Weigh-in tomorrow AM should be interesting. I've been feeling so down and out on myself regarding my body lately, I'm curious to see how much I've gained/maintained/lost.

    Got in a run this AM bright and early before work. and it was pretty miserable. I used to love running in the mornings and I think I can get back into it, I just need to start getting a better night's sleep...

    That's all for now. Heading out for the night to run errands, return a few items, and start to enjoy my summer hopefully. Talk to you ladies soon!
