I agree with the others. Be sure you can walk briskly for 30 minutes before starting C25K.

I still like their Canadian Maple doughnut. Surprised it's only 210 calories. https://www.timhortons.com/ca/en/pdf/TH_Nutrition_Guide_CE_2013_-_FINAL.pdf

@slimgirljo15 2 things. 1. You are a few days late. 2. Holy *kitten* you have a lot of posts!

Timmy's?

Yeah, but probably real Krispy Kreme's at least. They show up up here every so often. Usually some kind of fundraiser. Didn't like them only to find out they are not as good as the ones in the US.

So I can add my scotch to water? :)

Hah. Fit that into your 1700 cals :devil:

Just as an aside, 1-2 lbs per week is not slowly. 2 lb per week is about the most an obese person should lose. With ~25 lbs to lose, 1 lb per week would be the max. I only say this to help with expectations.

PT has me doing Sumo Squats as part of my warmup. God I hate those. He also has me pushing a sled around. It's hard but I love it for some dumb reason. Push it twice a week. Pull it once a week and not so fond of that I've seen burpees, yeah not trying those :)

I "think" this is my target for this year. If I do the math right, this would be ~25 mins for a 5K, or 5min/km for 5K. PB for me so far is 27:33 for 5K and my latest runs are ~28:15, but that is on snow and ice. Plan is to run a lot more. ~50KM per week, with a couple of the runs being speed work, and the bulk to be longer…

Bulletproof Coke?

Excuse my ignorance here. Wouldn't the milk products be considered non-vegetarian? Or are they just non-vegan? Just curious.

Amazing how that happens

I keep thinking I should rename my Snacks category as "The reason I'm not losing weight"

Even if he isn't on PED's, he is recognized as an outlier. That in no way invalidates the standard.

I know it's off topic, but this is interesting. Kinda my goal for 2019 until I train for an October marathon. 50km per week with one run of 20. Now if it would just stop snowing.

What have you got against the Quakers? And is it the oatmeal/breakfast cereal Quakers, or the Quaker religion? (sorry, just thought it was a funny typo) :)

I was the opposite. I didn't think I was cheating, I thought the damn thing was lying to me.

My way is easier as you don't need anything :) Either works. Hey 2 tenths is something :)

Your scale might be lying to you. Here is my experience with a WW scale. https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10485204/dumb-scale-question-weight-watchers-scale/p1 In short, the scale may be seeing a small difference and displaying the last weight instead of the actual current weight. To test this, on a day…

I'd suggest small changes to what you are buying. Maybe no mayo or oil. Might even need to skip the cheese. Just try to figure out where you can make a seemingly small change to what you are currently eating. Add to that a little more exercise, even just a daily walk or jog. Sometimes small changes are all that's needed.

I need a snack of some kind before working out, but can't have a full meal. You just need to find what works for you.

Uhhmmmmm :)

Yeah, like I'd notice a few more hugs, with all that @pinuplove and @quiksylver296 have given me..

Huh. They were handing out Nuun at the water stations on my half last Saturday. Never thought to not take it. No bad side effects so I guess I'm lucky, but I'll pay a bit more attention next time to what they are handing out and if I'm okay with it.

Keto/low carb. Drop the glycogen and the related water weight. Just know that it will be temporary and will come back once you go back to a normal diet. Low sodium and don't change your workout routine (or even cut back some). Goal will be to drop water out of your muscle.

I've just started on the 80/20 running, and have been taking it pretty easy, but my VO2Max dropped from mid 40's to 37 from the last few runs. 2 of which were half (in the snow).

So, just the mapping it can't do. Huh. Gonna have to play with it. I see on the 80/20 resource page that I can upload .fit files and have more flexibility than just run/walk with it so am going to play with that next.

Taller?? :)

Problem is, that you can't go by reviews for running shoes. You need to find out what support you need. So I run in Asics, but I have two models that are stability shoes that were suggested to me. I could probably find another brand that works as well, as long as they are stability shoes, but I couldn't run in other Asics…
