Thanks! I definitely hope to see more muscle and definition this time around. I guess I just have that 140 number in my head, but I know it may not be the same goal with this different approach.

I have a 4 1/2 year old. I also gained 50 lbs. I didn't start really trying to lose until he was about 6 months. I started running and eating right, and I ended up losing almost 80 lbs. I've gained about 20 back because I've slack, but I'm back on track to getting back to my happy weight. After losing 80, 20 doesn't seem…

Oh yeah! I love my evening glass of wine, but then I want another.. ;) So, I've just cut it out completely during the week unless there's a special occasion. Honestly, once I decided to do it (and I don't have it in the house during the week), it just happened. But I don't see the harm in moderation either. Just count your…

I'm in! I lost about 80 lbs, but I've backslid a bit. I need to get this back under control and ready for the summer!

Do you know about thredup.com? You can sell your good shape namebrand clothes and buy like new or new ones. The prices are awesome!!

Awesome job!! Keep it up!

Thanks everyone! I'll check out that thread and look into a heart rate monitor.

OMG! Yes! I remember when this happened, and I still marvel at it now! Congrats!

Thanks guys! I think I'm going with the 310. It sounds like the recent softrware update helps with the swim issues. Running is my first love, but I do plan to do more triathlons. I've only done a sprint so far. I'd like to do a longer one in the future, but not sure about an Ironman ;0)

Thanks guys! I just wrapped it and elevated it. I'm crossing my fingers that I make it through on Sunday.

You guys are all so awesome and supportive! Thanks so much. I'm starting to feel better about this thing.

You guys make me feel better. There's a Tri clinic on the course a couple weeks before the Tri. I'm definitefly going to attend.

Perfect! Thank you!

I've recently started using spaghetti squash instead of pasta. It's a great substitute, and I don't feel like I'm missing out. Good luck with those last 10. I'm in my last 5, and I've been stuck since March :0)

Awesome NSV!

Since you're OK, I'm laughing at you! haha Actually, that would have really freaked me out. I'm not a fan of trail running either. I love to run, but I can be a bit clumsy, so I'm always worried I'll trip over a root and be out of commission for a while. Not worth it! Good luck on the hybrid race. Can't wait to hear about…

I'm so scared of the swimming! The friend I'm training with is really good at it, so she'll be coaching me on that. Didn't I see you post that you're using swimplan.com? How do you like it?

I am loving all these responses and tips! Thanks guys! I'll let you know how it goes. It's an open lake swim, so I plan to try it out several times this summer.

I just started killer buns and thighs yesterday. I'm so sore today! I really liked what I've done.

That brought tears to my eyes. What wonderful NSVs!

Definitely rest it. I think that was too close together for those long runs. I usually try to give myself at least 5 days. I did 11 miles today in prep for my second half, and I'll give myself at least one day off and only do shorter runs for at least a few days after. I hope you're feeling better soon. Congrats on your…

It's apple+q on the mac

Oh and I'm wearing mostly 6s, some 8s, some 4s. Clothes sizes are CRAZY!

I'm 5'9'', and I started at 225. Right now I'm 139, but I'm shooting for 135. That being said. I'm completely fine where I am now. I just want some wiggle room.

That is awesome! I noticed the same thing. I used to always have my Zantac with me, but I haven't had the first cast of heartburn, since I've lost weight. It's great!

Feel free to add me. I'm training for my second half that will be in the middle of April.

Olive oil + balsamic vinegar + a little dijon mustard. So good! I always use a little more oil than vinegar, and it definitely matters what kind of balsamic vinegar. Trader Joe's is my fave :0)

I'm back to say, I'm half way through my first round with the Shred, and I'm seeing awesome results. Not really a lot of lbs lost, but I see a difference in my stomach and how my clothes are fitting.

I largely attritbute my weight loss of over 80 lbs to it! Running rocked my body!
