I am having trouble disconnecting my Fitbit? I can hit disconnect but it seems to be automatically reconnecting? Any suggestions?

What do I do? Well it seems I trash talk myself, eat chocolate, shame myself a little more, eat cake, feel guilty, eat chocolate to make myself feel better, go to bed vowing tomorrow will be different, turns out it's not..... I'm trying really hard to break the cycle so I hear what your saying.... it's hard. Today I'm…

Here is mine....feeling brave lol I don't know what to describe my tummy as other than a hot mess really. I hate that my upper belly sticks out further than below my belly button. I have lost about 25kg half way to goal, it's shrinking but will never be gone, I'm ok with tucking a little in once shrunk but I have to wait…

25kg difference, 25kg more to go.....
-
Me too LOL

This, I'm in the same boat. I have a new, very new, found belief in myself. I held myself back from so many things and never finished anything ( sewing cupboard full of UFO's!!) Never believed I could do anything. I stopped believing in my body when infertility became an issue and I hated my body because it could not carry…

Way to go, I finished the program today and like could not have imagined running 3 mins let alone the 30 I did today. Keep going

WOW I have never heard of mountain unicycling!! You must have great core strength? My mind is even strggling with the imagining that. Go you :)

I use "in built storage " too lol, my tights, like robbies have a small zipped pocket at the back. I'm running in a top that is also zip front and has an inside pocket that I zip my phone in to so the head phone cord does not flap around, I was forever pulling them out when worn outside top.I use my phone for the app and…

W9D2 today, 1 run left till graduation :) had to do some serious self talk to keep going this morning !! I was thinking I must be tired or run down ( new job great but some days the brain stretch is exhausting) I went bit further than my marker today and was puzzled till I got home and downloaded the run, no wonder I was…

Swim :)

@ftrobbie. Thank you your encouragement always helps :) I will look in to the program. I am still super slow but have come to terms with it for now. Time is my enemy, I get up really early to run now and it's heading to winter so getting cold out ( and I lost my running gloves the other morning, ggrrrrr) I have to catch a…

Finished week 8 today, my program is a nine week program. I can not believe I am here. I am a purist and have done the program exactly as prescribed, no extra running, pushed myself to complete the minutes even when it seemed impossible. I just really wanted to prove to myself the program would work for me if it has for so…

Started week 8 today :-) starting to get stiff and sore in my hips :-( think it might be my shoes, so I bought a new pair today. Went and got fitted at a running store. Can't wait till Wednesday to try them out!!

W7D3 complete, can see the end and can't believe it !

Oops that should have been in Daily Check In...Sorry
-
W7D2 today. Feeling proud. Having a problem with my app however. Have noticed it is out of sync, the screen will say I am supposed to have started running but the voice has not told me to start, then when it did I had been running for three minutes, 10 minutes in, then skipped the first 5 min prompt and was pretty close to…

Week 7 Day 1

WOW you are my new inspiration. I'm 42 and dream of looking like you at 45!! So much Congratulations :) I started at 125kg, currently, 107.5kg, pretty happy with the way things are going. Not ready to post pics, but one day....

W6*D3 done.... Woo hoo. I was slow but comfortable, now I know I can comfortably do 25 mins I will work on picking up my pace.
-
Ohhh I know that movie scene. One thing that has really helped me with lungs was learning to belly breathe while running, well by some accounts on here on pace, I am barely moving. I did W6*R3 today, 25 minute run, my fastest km was at a pace of 9.12km/hr. But I managed to complete the whole 25 minutes, that was my focues.…

Road, going to do some trails when I have the 30 min run down.
-
Eat less, move more..
-
W6D2 today, changed my route and went a bit later today as I did not have to get going to work. Earlier is defiantly better for me I think, I feel like I struggled more today. But that also seems to be my pattern, day 1 I feel invincible, day 2 I struggle, day 3 I kick myself in the butt and get it done. Need to keep my…

Week 6 underway :) did day 1 today. I seriously can't believe I'm here. I am sure I am not the first person to be in utter disbelief, 5 weeks ago I struggled through 1 min intervals. Its still not "easy" but I'm doing it. I got a fitbit surge for mothers day. It's interesting to see, where I went in a picture form, what my…

The other day I was walking to work and saw a guy running, all of a sudden outside a building he threw his arms in the air and pumped the air a little, I realised he must be home and had made his run. I smiled and thought, way to go. I then decided that as my next run was W5D3, 20 min run, if I made it, I was going to…
-
W5D2 done!! Next run is the big W5D3 20 minutes run. Mind/Matter. I am trying not to let the number intimidate me. The first 5 mins I will probably be convincing myself I can do this but I know once I relax in to it, hit my stride, I will be able to do it. See, talking myself in to it already and it is only Wednesday lol

I did one of my week 4 days in bucketing rain, thought it might rain but not like it did. I wore a baseball cap, so glad I did because at least that kept it out of my eyes. That was the point I actually felt I could call myself a runner, I figured if I'm up and running in the rain, left the house knowing it would rain,…

I just wanted to pop in and say YOU CAN DO THIS. I BELIEVE IN YOU. Hang in there :) Best advice I have read on here is... Go slow, and if you think you already are, you can still go slower.. Get some proper running shoes. Belly breathe. Run with music, it seriously makes a difference. I downloaded some beats per minute…
