I second logging EVERYTHING and being honest! That's the best way to measure progress and to know how you're doing. You've got this!!

Hey Joe! I'm jealous that you're living in England! It's on my bucket list to visit there one day. Good luck on the transition!

Hi! Welcome!

Hey hey!! I've been doing Keto for about a month now. I'm doing pretty well and have only had two occasions where I fell off the no-carb wagon, and honestly my body felt awful afterwards! I'm 30 years old and work in a state prison as a mental health counselor, so that keeps me pretty busy so I do a lot of meal-planning…

I'm late to the party but I'm open to FR! I've been doing keto for a month now and I've lost almost 20lbs, and feeling great!

Welcome!

Hey! I’ve lost 14, have about 140 to go. Everyone add me! I’d love to be friends with people on similar situations so we can encourage each other!

Hey I'll add you!

Definitely soul sisters!! <3

Can’t go wrong!! Well you can... but you know what I mean haha. Smart choices!

Hey! Adding you :)

Hey! I’ll add you!

I’ll add you! :)

Hey! Welcome and good luck! I also have over 100 lbs to lose, I've lost 17lbs so far and hoping to get down to 160. Anyone feel free to add me!

Hi! Feel free to add me. I'm also doing this for the 1000th time and have over 100 lbs to lose. We can motivate each other!

I would definitely get lost in a forest haha. I walk/run a trail, which I actually discovered by getting on Google maps and looking at the area around me to see where sidewalks were, and I found it. I would also try just searching for walking trails online. I believe their are websites online where people list places to…

Before trying c25k, were you doing any other exercises? I would start by walking every day and build up your endurance. Before I began c25k, I walked 5-6 times every week for a month, and then I slowly began using the c25k program. The run 60 seconds/walk 90 seconds is the standard for how it begins. You absolutely have to…

So this is going in the opposite direction, don't hate me, but I've actually found that listening to talking works better for me than music. I either listen to a comedian 'album' or a podcast. I think since I don't know what they are going to say next, I have to focus more which takes my mind off my body wanting to quit…

Bored at work and wishing for Fridayyyyy!

This is me too. The last time I went to Six Flags, which was about 10 years ago, I couldn't fit on the rides and had to do that embarrasing walk off the platform after being told the bar wouldn't lock on me. Sooo when I reach my goal weight I'm going back and riding everything!!!! Along the way I have smaller goals, like…

Good to know! Thanks!!

I have a question about the 3days a week. Today was my first day doing C25K and I see that there's only 3 days per week. Do you stay on one week just the whole week? What I mean is, let's say I complete W1D2 tomorrow, and W1D3 on Thursday, should I go ahead and move on the week 2 before this week is up? That may be a silly…

You look fabulous!! And I kinda definitely want to steal that top you're wearing in the 2nd set haha. Keep up the good work!!

I'm soooo grateful for all of this information!! I just wish my computer at work (that I'm currently using) was modern enough to let me read/watch the links that have been suggested. Unfortunately it is quite a dinosaur so that part will have to wait until I get home. Do any of you have any experience with Bodypump and…

Another question: I know that I won't get HUGE muscles without taking some kind of supplements, etc., but I still hear this debate about women lifting and doing lighter weight/more reps vs. more weight/less reps. Can anyone shed some light on this and why there's such a disagreement about this? Even my husband is "team…

That's good to know. I'm just really clueless about this so I wasn't sure if lifting was going to be one of those things that "my body wasn't ready for" like me trying to go from no exercise to running 5 miles lol. Is there anything I can read to learn about a good starting point, as in how many reps/weight I should start…

I can't wait to experience this. The last time I tried (about 10 years ago) I was too big for the bars to lock over my chest and stomach and I had to experience the embarrassment of being told I couldn't ride it. I've still got a long way to go, but once I get close to my goal weight I'm going back to an amusement park to…

I really loved doing Bodypump in the past, but is it sufficient for lifting or should someone do supplemental lifting as well? I've never done lifting outside of this class but I'm wanting to start.

I'm interested in the answer to this because I'm also thinking of working with a trainer. Good luck on your journey!
