How did the buddies go everyone?
Please tell me if it's working out or not, I wanna help you guys. I am really loving the buddy idea, but I don't know if everyone else's partners is going good.

How many of you run? I was thinking this week we could do a mile challenge and see who racks up the most miles. This includes running, walking, swimming, biking etc

From Today until next Wednesday.

AND GO!

    OH! And I started my running tonight! Half mile without stopping, slowing down a bit... But no stopping.

    Yay! I love running (or rather, I love to have gone on a run). I did 2.5 miles tonight, including some devil intervals at the end. It will be cool to see how many miles we can do as a group.

    I WAS running, but two things contributed. One, my iliotibial band started bothering me, and I decided not to push it. now, it only starts hurting again if i try to run. The other was that the next book in a series that I am addicted to came out, and i've been going to the gym to read on the stairmaster.

    I LOVE the buddy idea!! It seems to be working out pretty good for us.

    3 miles of dog-walking last night, a 4 mile run this morning...Woohoo. So, so far I've got 7 miles for the week. Hopefully I'll be able to go to the gym tomorrow and do some biking after weight training.

    2 today on the treadmill. I swam too but I have no idea how much. I need to find a way to calculate the distance I walk during work. I have 5 miles so far!

    I'm leaving on an apartment hunting trip tomorrow, so my weight for this week is 134.4. I did 6.5 miles officially this week, plus 90 minutes of soccer, 4 hours of carrying my friend's belongings from one apartment to a moving truck to another apartment, and half a dozen dog walks. Good luck, all!

    Probably walked about three miles at work. I went outside a lot to get carts. Then me and my sis were in the art museum for a good 4 hours, I'll say maybe a mile. Probably more because we never took the elevator but I'll keep it at a mile. So I'm up to 9 miles this week. I had one night of AWFUL food binging. I was frustrated with things, and I was out with friends. It wasn't a good combination. I had some mcdonalds yesterday. ick. But I think I didn't fairly well, they were out of parfaits which is what i wanted instead of french fries. But I think I burned a lot off at the Kings Of Leon concert :D:D:D

    Hey soc friends.. I've been so out of it for a month now. I got a job as a manager of a brand new restaurant opening up, and I've been working 70-80 hours a week. I haven't tracked my food in weeks and haven't exercised either. I've been very physical on my feet every day and haven't eaten too terribly, so somehow I managed to maintain my plateau of 140, however I think I lost some muscle mass. Today im going to the gym and I plan on recording my food. I really want to get back into it!
