I started running at 242lbs. I could literally run for 1 min at a time. We're not talking one min then walk a min...it was run 1 min then walk 20 mins! I didn't know about couch to 5k. Well fast forward a few years later and i have lost 102 lbs. Only 88 on my fitness pal. I can now run for as long as i have the desire to…

I'm totally in love w peanut butter & co white chocolate wonderful.

Go.

Great job =D

I've actually skipped eating them on a regular basis and when I do I find I get more weight loss stalls. I calculate my weight x.63 then x that per mile of running and try to eat up to 1800 calls a day. On some runs I still bank 200-400 a day.

The recipe maker won't work for that?

I love the yogurt parfait, oatmeal, sausage egg and cheese mcgriddle, and now i love love love love love love that triple cheeseburger =) I actually go out for a long run just to eat one after!

I hate my rest day just for that reason =(

You look amazing =)

I notice my weight loss stalls if i don't eat enough calories. So i do in fact eat a large portion of my exercise calories back. Love me some extra nom noms =)

I love the extra sweet strawberries at trader joe` s and the packaged fresh pineapple. Peaches and apricots when in season. The brussel sprouts, English peas, and roasted beets are yummy to!

Why do you care if a stranger gives you a scowl? Maybe their trying not to fart. Not to be mean or rude but don't make every look about you. I run on the treadmill and sometimes i see people looking all kinds of weird ways. Maybe their pushing themselves, thinking or mentally working something out.

I eat carbs and protein in a nice balance =D i ate two ounces of flank steak, a mini naan bread and a tablespoon of hummus and waited 1.5 hrs and then ran seven miles =D You will know what you need by the way your runs feel.

Harney & son blueberry green tea......sooooooooooo yummy!

If your not counting calories by weighing and measuring all your food then good luck. I run 30+ miles a week and can easily gain weight when i don't watch what i put in my mouth. Its about the calories not the gym. Calories are more important then working out =)

Chocolate milk :)

Put helmets on the kids and have them ride bikes while you run/walk. You can do intervals also. Slow and steady wins the race.

Congrats :)

You must of really trained your butt off! Awesome job =)

My hubbys making a apple pie w crumb topping and caramel sauce!!! He increased the insurance pay out on me!!!!!!!!

If you really want your cake then eat a smaller portion and workout longer. If I know I am going to have a sweet I earn it first w exercise....although I do save my daily dog walks for a nice treat once a week.

My husband went to a zombie run w me because our friend guilted him into it. She told him her husband supported her in all her runs.....honestly i didn't care if he went. Her husband never showed up. I also want to say that it sometimes costs money to get into these events even if your just watching. I run everyday by…

I've been on levo for years. I am on a very high dose. No side effects for me =) I've lost 100+ lbs also.

I started running at 242lbs and my miles were about 14 min miles when i could finally run a whole mile at a time. I started running one minute at a time =) I've been running outside for over two years now and my endurance has improved which also translates to a faster mile. I ran 13.33 miles on monday and my avg pace was…

I take a nap then get a awesome workout in. If the naps not refreshing you then workout tired.

LOL!!!!! Such a kind guy ;)

just cook your salmon in a skillet and get it nice and crisp then add your favorite bbq sauce. Yummy.

you realize also that the more you weigh the more calories you burn? So i run a lot and now that i lost a decent amount of weight i burn so much less per mile. You need to weigh/measure everything you consume. if you don't your really not aware of your calories.

Good job on 40 lbs! If your losing weight for yourself who cares if your mom praises you. Praise yourself :)
