I am a little thick sometimes, but what is WATP. As soon as you tell me, I know it will be too obvious. I am just having a brain blip.

I was hoping to do a good LS walk before dinner on Thursday and an outdoor walk after dinner. Crossing my fingers!

I completed the 5 mile Walk today. I must have done something to my right butt because it is sore when I do the kicks. I'm sure its nothing a few days of rest won't cure.

5 Mile Leslie Sansone DVD Walk. Wish I could go run on this lovely day, but I am nursing a fractured shoulder which requires something with less impact. (SSSSshhhhh...I have been on a few runs, but don't tell my husband or Doc!)

Hi All! I am Lisa, from Colchester, Vermont. I have been running for three years and started with a 5k and worked my way up to Half Marathons. It helped me lose 40 pounds! This past Fall, I got a bad case of Achilles Tendonitis, and on top of that, fell on my Mountain Bike and fractured my shoulder. Unfortunately, I had to…

I'll start...I did a brand new video to me today. It was the Walk it Off and Tone it up 5 mile DVD. It was more challenging then the other DVDs I have, but I needed that. I like to watch the group walkers and was disappointed when I found out it would just be her on the DVD the whole time. But I did it all...about 70…

I struggled with this when I began. I coach a cross country team now and these are great suggestion already. Here is my advice: ~Ice, Ice, Ice to get inflammation down. ~stretch, but don't overstretch to make it go away faster (I did this and it made it worse) ~strengthen shins only after the inflammation is down (If you…

I am glad someone finally asked! I didn't know either, but was too bashful to ask!

I had gotten down to 129 (57 pound loss) before I injured my achilles and fractured my shoulder this summer/fall. I have gained 10 pounds due to activity restriction and emotional eating since the accident. However, I am right back at it now! I am hoping to be at my goal again by Christmas!

I have always been a bit scared of Zumba, but its free and no one can see me, so why not give it a try?? Thanks!

Struggles this week seem to be eating the sunlight I am not getting! When it gets dark out so early, I turn to comfort food. But its still dark out when I finish eating, so I look for more comfort food. Although I celebrate my sons 17th birthday today, I can't help yearn for the past when he was a baby. It seems like just…

We could be twins! Our struggles are very, very similar. Glad there is someone out there that can relate!

I sooooo want to join this group. I need some motivation. I am on a yo-yo cycle right now and I want to get off this ride! SW: 139 CW: 139 Goal weight: 128 Goals for this week: ~Drink more water (I am so bad at this!) ~Balance my eating/exercising. (Last week, I got in a cycle of overeating and then compensating by…

Same here...its 70 calories well spent!

I also used to eat a ton of calories in the evening. Mostly out of boredom and loneliness. Then I would go to bed feeling worse physically and mentally. Even if I haven't eaten back my excercise caloriess, I will not eat after 8pm anymore. That way, I don't trigger the same behavioral pattern. My decision has nothing to do…

love this response! It says it all...thanks! :flowerforyou:

so that I don't see the muffin top over my jeans. After having 3 kids, I wear my weight in my tummy. I have a few tops that make many rolls above my jeans. These need to go bye-bye!!!!

I really started to love running when two things happened. One, I joined a 5k running class at a local sports store and was able to run with like minded people. I still have great friends from that group! Two, I ran my first 5k and felt the awesomeness of achievement. I now have the running "bug" ! Running helped me lose…
