Okay all, I'm back for a quick post. I found a job and started last week. Working as Case Manager for Regugee Services for non-profit in Savannah. So far I love my job, but the commute and hours are long. Haven't had time to exercise or eat well. Weigh-in today was 129! Yippee! I hope to get a run in shortly. Will need to…

Wow! This morning I weighed in at 130! I've lost 47lbs to date. Yippee! I may try to lose another 5 lbs; not sure yet. Aliem, hope you're feeling better!

So glad you both are back at it! Wonderful! I ran my track workout last night. 5200 meters total. Today is my weights and yoga day but I've been really slack about getting it done since my mom died. Just hard to find the motivation. Hopefully, I'll dig deep and get 'er done. Hope you both have a great day!

Glad you're back as well, Aliem. So sorry to hear of continued nausea, but it will pass. Congrats on your marriage! Way to ring in 2017! Welcome, Humble64! I didn't exercise yesterday. It was my day for weights, but just didn't get around to lifting. Tonight I have my track workout which I definitely will do! Lost a little…

Welcome back, Becs! So happy to read your post and excited for you to be exercising again!

Ran 4 miles on Saturday. Forgot to take meausurements and weight for end of month records. Eating has been way over board the past week, but weight remains at 131.8, the same as last Sunday. Just took measurements. Currently, 35-28-36. Lost an inch from waist and hips. Lost 5.6 lbs for the month. Goal was 4 lbs so I'm…

Didn't make it to track workout last night, but ran 3 miles today. No problems with quad muscle so looks like I'm back on track. Yippee!

Haven't been exercising at all due to muscle strain. Going to go to track workout tonight and run for a bit. Been eating a lot but hopefully I'll have another good weigh-in on Sunday.

Down to 131.8! Hooray! I'm so close I can't believe it. I've lost 45.2 lbs! Hurt my quad muscle, however and have missed some running days. Hope to run again on Monday, but it still hurts.

Weigh-in this morning was a surprise. Lost another lb so I'm down to 132.8. Yay!

Ate over my limit last night and a tad over tonight so I may be putting on a little pre-Christmas weight. Didn't do my weights and yoga today which didn't help matters, but am looking forward to tomorrow night's track workout.

Didn't realize I haven't posted since the 15th! Ran 3 miles on Friday and was supposed to run 4 on Saturday but just had no energy so I only did 3 and made up for it today with a 4 miler. I'm getting somewhat faster but having a hard time finding a slow pace on the days I'm supposed to take it easy. Next run is track…

Hope you're getting your rest and feeling good, Aliem! Had track workout last night at local high school. Ran a mile warm-up then 6x 400 meters with 400 rest in between for 4 miles total. Ran faster than regular runs. Felt good to pick up the pace a little and stretch out my legs. Supposed to do weights and yoga this…

Ran my 3 miles in yesterday in 34:57 for 11:38 per mile avg. Did my weights and yoga today for hour total. Eating on track. Short report!

What the heck? Getting married, moving, and baking a bazillion cookies? Gees, you are one busy woman! Good on you for getting any exercise in with all you have going on. And congrats on the marriage!!! Wonderful! I had breakfast/brunch at a friend's house this morning. Ate almost 1000 calories, but my oh my was it tasty!…

Weighed in this morning as well and down to 134.4. Wow!

I did it! Got up and ran the 4 miles. Plus, I weighed in this morning at 135!!!! Yowzers, I'm at my goal!! So happy for both accomplishments.

Time for bed and I forgot to post earlier. Did my speed workout this afternoon. Was fun but I ran faster than I was supposed to, which isn't such a bad thing to me. However, trainer wants me running intervals at a certain pace. Going to try to get up early tomorrow am for group run at 7. Weather report says it will be 31…

That seems strange that you would be down after eating more. Of course, I've been eating more since I last weighed myself and I'm down, too. So who knows? It is a tad odd for both of us. My trainer gave me my new schedule today. Yippee! I'm doing a speed workout tomorrow (if you can call it that) and 4 miles on Saturday.…

Couldn't wait till Friday so I weighed myself this am and I'm down to 135.8! So happy!

Yes, being pregnant does put the lbs on. Think I gained 30 some for my first and then 40 for my second. Didn't have any trouble losing the weight, however. Glad you're enjoying barre so much. I tried it at home a few times. Ran another 3 miles but picked up the pace a little today and ran over a minute faster than Monday.…

Finally back to weights and yoga! Yay! Did 36 minutes lifting plus 24 minutes yoga. Now just have to keep it up. Ate better yesterday and should be on track today. Haven't weighed myself since the 1st so I hope I haven't gained. Will weigh-in on Friday and face the music.

Oh. My. Gosh! That's phenomenal! Congratulations and best wishes! I hope you have a smooth and easy pregnancy. Wonderful news. Yes, the early bedtimes might continue through the first trimester. Hope you felt better as the day progressed. Today I ran 3 miles in a little over 36 minutes so that was positive. Wasn't my best…

I can sympathize with the 8pm bedtime. I've been feeling that way on and off for the past month. Went to bed at 9:30 myself last night. I'm glad to hear you're okay. I went over my calorie allotment yesterday celebrating my grandson's 13th bithday. Thought I had enough in reserve from eating low for breakfast and lunch,…

I did it! Ran my 30 minutes with no problems. Felt pretty good while running and even better when I finished.

Hope you're okay! Sticking with maintenance won't be too bad as you'll be able to focus more on gaining muscle mass for the time being and it will take the pressure off trying to lose during more holiday action. I've read that it's tricky, however, to lose fat and build muscle at the same time. I have no idea either what %…

Good Morning! I am so excited I lost my Thanksgiving weight plus a little more. Yay! Weight: Oct: 143 Nov: 137.4 Goal was 4lbs and I lost 5.6. I'm gonna stick with my 4lb weightloss goal for December. Although my original goal was 135, I think I'm gonna shoot for 130 now. That would bring me to 133 by end of December.…

Yay, I did it! Ran for 25 minutes with no problem. Much easier than Monday's run which I just slogged through to the finish. Now I have the confidence for the 30 on Friday. After that I'm going to start running mileage at a given pace plus some faster intervals on other days. Also adding another run day to schedule…

Oh my gosh! Totally forgot to weigh-in and measure this morning! What was I thinking? Will have to do it tomorrow and hope for the best. Definitely motivation for a light dinner. If I'm still at 139 I believe I'll hit my goal for the month so anything below is bonus. Still have to go running this afternoon and hopefully…

Way to go, Aliem# I ate under my calorie allotment for today, but didn't exercise. Tomorrow I'll have no problems with my run. Just can't seem to get in the rhythm with weights.
