    My wife and I started our SL 5x5 last night

    I've been lifting on and off for about 5 years now, and I think SL 5x5 is a solid program. the app is great for keeping track. Just be careful to learn good form, especially on DL, before adding a lot of weight, in order to prevent injury. Practice at home with videos, in front of the mirror can help a lot with getting your body used to its new kinetic patterns, but you probably knew that if have done a lot a research!

    Good luck, I'm planning on getting back into weightlifting soon but I find it makes me very hungry so sometimes its an either/or situation for me.

    4/8: 111.9kg/246.7lbs - I struggled to post last round as I was so busy but fluctuated below and above what I finished on, but was a tab frustrated not to make a loss overall but I am very happy it didn't go up!! Good start to this round, hoping to drop some more tomorrow.
    4/9: 110.6kg/243.8lbs - Oh my god wow, I have not been this light in a very long time. Went for a 14km run on Saturday and a 4km run this morning and worked on my speed/pacing however my shins were causing me quite a lot of discomfort. Let us see if I can keep this weight off!
    4/10: 110.6kg/243.8lbs – Well it didn’t go up? 8km run this morning and my shins were on fire, eurgh. Now just to plod through the day, gym tonight and hopefully a drop tomorrow!

    4/14

    Funny how our perspective changes... Yesterday your weight got a "wow" today that same weight together with the amazing loss got a meh... ;) I'm waiting with baited breath to know how the marathon goes? It's my ultimate target to run the Dublin one next October but I'm still struggling to get through c25k.... :|

    I think I just fell out the wrong side of the bed haha, that and I cannot wait to say I've lost 50lbs!! The Marathon isn't till October, so plenty of prep time, I am running Leeds Half Marathon Next month though, so hopefully that'll give me a good idea as to where I am. You can 100% do a marathon and c25k is a great place to start!

    We all have those days, this whole thing is just so much about the psychology of eating isn't it?!
    Ah... My bad! For some reason I thought you were doing London! I'm on a running challenge on this so all the marathons have me all confused! I've done a few 10ks but normally I train for the run then stop after running it! :D

    I'm sure you'll hit the 50lbs in no time at all! :)
