  • I get the "how did you do it" one a lot. And when you say watching what I eat and working out, they look at me dumbfounded. Like I just spoke in a foreign language. Also, they continually refer to running as jogging. I guess it makes them feel better about the fact that they do nothing. Not quite sure why that one. My…
  • 5'6" Goal Weight is 135. I keep fluctuating lately because I haven't been as diligent. After losing a little over 50 pounds I have been maintaining lately but want to drop the rest. It's about another 20-25 pounds.. Depends on the day lol. If anyone wants to add me feel free. :)

Write it down in the diary before you want to do it. It helps to see it in black and white how many calories you plan to put in your body. (Set yourself aside a treat now and…
  • Maybe someone mentioned this already, but what is really sad is the livestrong charity and any awareness he brought to cancer research. What happens to all of that?
  • Think of it as warming up before you do your main workout. Even though the first two weeks were easy for me it gets you used to the program. Try it for one week and instead of jogging pick up the pace. This is my 3rd time doing c25k. Each time I do it I have gotten better at it and push myself hard, go faster and further…
