@kayjosh2422 Good job! Looks like you and I have about the same goals. Those who IF together, lose together. You are my inspiration on this challenge. Keep up the good work.

@TheCupcakeCounter , Barb around here running is usually done these days as the sun comes up. I think that's the part I dislike the most. Not a morning person, especially since retirement, so getting up early to run because of the heat, not my favorite. It's 7am here and I've already done my 5 miles for today.

Ok ladies, this almost 60 yr old lady is crazy...I just agreed to do a Road Race (five different 5K races) series with my daughter and granddaughter which will be run from May 27 to August 6, here in Arizona. So I guess I better start training and really glad I've been building my strength with all the challenges with you…

As of yesterday, I am at 100 miles for this challenge. My weekly miles will most likely increase, as my daughter and granddaughter have convinced me to register for a Road Racers (five different 5K races) to be run from May 27 to August 6. YIKES!!!

After being on the road all weekend, small loss, but I'll take it. Down only half a pound this week to 210.

@kayjosh2422 , you are beautiful. Very big difference and you should be very proud.

@kayjosh2422 , I'm back on track with IF today. Thank you again for introducing this process to me. It makes me feel in control again. I've got a lot of weight to lose by the end of the year. Thank you for helping me see a light at the end of the tunnel.

Had bruch while everyone was on their big bike ride here at the Ironman Race and I made sure it was full of the rainbow. peppers, onions, carrots, tomatoes, kale and I asked for fresh fruit on the side which was grapes and strawberries, throw on the scrambled eggs (and I made them regular instead of just whites and got the…

Day 6 is going to be a rest day for me. I got one in last night but just don't have the energy today. My daughter was talking about the Nike marathon today. You want inspiring, watch 1500 men and women complete an Ironman competition. That's what I was doing today. My kids rock I have three Ironmen (actually one Ironman…

@SmithsonianEmpress , @TheCupcakeCounter ; @hannahhooter ; you ladies make me laugh. You are working so hard and are an inspiration...yes, you too Hannah, even though you are late to the party. I thought today would be a slow workout day for me...but God had other plans. Drove 6.5 hrs to an Ironman competition (spectator &…

I was in the car for 6 hours from 5 am to 11 am (non-eating time) Did the best I could, drank ALOT; but gave into boredom (I'm by myself) so I ate some honeydew and some cherry tomatoes to keep me from eating the "bad stuff". Gonna just make sure I also stay within my calorie counts for today. Now off to Ironman Village…

Perfect. thanks

I'm on the road Friday thru Sunday, but I will accept this mini-mini challenge and do my best. Hopefully this will help keep me on track. Anyone have any suggestions besides blueberries for travel food that are blue and/or purple?

L1D4 shredded

Barb....again, you and I together through this...I am 5'10 and I'm with you, a long way down...knee push ups for this lady.

Good job, Jessica!!

I was really struggling, but am feeling really positive this week with your new IF challenge. This might be the one thing that really helps me. I am truly excited to move forward now. Thanks for this challenge and giving me focus.

It is really helping me @kayjosh2422 . Other than "clock watching", it doesn't seem too hard for me. It's helping me get control again. I am on the road Friday thru Sunday, so we will see how I can make this work while traveling by car (which is a signal for me to snack). Wish me luck.

I have the upmost faith in you ladies, @SmithsonianEmpress and @dmiller4129 . You will kick the "real" pushups out of the park!!! For me, this grammy with stick with the "Grammy" pushups and be happy I can get off the ground with them....We can do this. No matter how we get there, we just need to keep moving forward. Keep…

L1D3 shredded.

Good job! I'm focusing on the noon to 8 eating also, so I hope I see results like yours next week. Keep up the good work!

Good job MJT...way to lead by example!!!

L1Day2 shredded!!!

Jessica, you are so very right!! Barb you are so beautiful and look so wonderful.

Congrats Barb!!! Your hard work is definitely paying off. So proud of you, young lady!!

Barb- I love reading your posts. Your struggles are my struggles and I feel like I'm not in this alone. You are doing so well. Keep up the good work.

I'm in @kayjosh2422 . I've always said, my stomach doesn't wake up and want to eat until about 11am, so your noon to 8pm schedule works perfectly for me. I'm definitely going to try this. I've heard about the IF theory, but not tried to specifically try it. Let's do this together.

L1Day1 shredded

@SmithsonianEmpress , Jessica, reading your comments, I swear you are writing about me when it comes to the dieting and food portion. I'm with you...these next 30 days, we will kick it into gear. You are going to be my daily inspiration to eat properly and not eat that big bag of popcorn while watch the DVR. You, Trinity…
