OK so I have a real 5 K today! I had hoped to run it but I think I will run 5 walk 5. I just hope to cut some of the time off of my last one. The last 5 K I did was in September and I did it walking in 50 min. Wish me luck!

HI everyone! Sorry I have been MIA. My hubby got home two nights ago. I just wanted to share with everyone I was able to get a pair of jeans in a size 12! I was so excited I don't think I have worn a 12 since middle school.

Where is everyone? I know it was kinda hard to spot the thread just cause I always look for pumpkinheadsmomma in the posted by section. Come on everyone! Also Ariel I am totally happy with 2 lbs. I just feel like maybe it could have been more if those factors weren't there. Good for you with another 2 lbs.

HI guys it is officially Tuesday here. I am at 187. So I am down 2 lbs from last week. I am expecting a visit from AF and had a bad Friday and Saturday so I am ok with that. Hope everyone else has a good week!

Sorry I have been missing in action. I am no drill sergent. I would love a work out buddy though. I work out by myself and it is so lonely. I used to work out with a group of friends when I lived in NY and it was so motivating. You know the crazy thing is I stay in my calories but I eat everything I want. I do not cut out…

So for losing so much weight I treated myself to a haircut and highlights. I had not had highlights since before I got pregnant. So almost 2 years. I love the new do! I just thought I would share. I could not get a great pic or I would post it.

Bump it's been like 11 hours since I last posted and no one has posted. I am sad no one is posting.

Hello everyone! Happy TGIF! I have was at the store trying on some new jeans again since all my 14's are huge and baggy in my butt. Anyway I tried a pair of 12's on and they fit. I have major muffin top but they fit. I didn't buy them yet I would rather wait till I have less of a muffin top but I am so excited cause I…

Congrats! Plateau's can be very hard to get through. Lots of people give up but you stayed strong and made it.

OMG! I have not even gotten a chance to look, I did not even read I just saw th picture and was like who is that? I think you look great! I am glad you took some pictures and shared with us!

Down 3 lbs from 192 to189! I am so excited. I am not longer a 190. Glad everyone is having a good week so far!

Ariel, I love your new pictures! You look great!

I am getting so sad! I know we are all busy but where is everyone? It has been 11 hours since my last post and that was a nothing post to bump us back to the 1st page. It is almost weigh in day!

BTW Europe does not change time at the same time as the US. So for the next few weeks I am only 5 hours time difference from Eastern coast.

I want to see pictures! I wont be posting any for a few weeks. I take mine every four weeks. I am on week 10 now! It makes me excited that I am motivating though. I can't believe the difference. My size 14's are actually getting big and slidding down and are really baggy at me butt. PS My hubby should be home this week!…

Where is everyone this Sunday?

I say it is all about your body. I know that someone will post witht he thread about going into starvation mode. I hate that thread. I understand starvation mode and I understand the eating of the exercise calories. I really do. I also know many people that it works for. However I follow my doctors orders to a 1500…

So I feel like crap today! I started feeling yucky two day ago but now I have a full blown head cold. I am going to be a bum today. Happy Sunday!

Unless you want to give up an activity I would not add anymore cario in. Maybe in a could weeks when you have been going this for a while you could switch it up and stop p90x for a little while and do couch to 5 k. I know I was doubling up on my workouts in the beggining to boost my metabolism but then I was not losing as…

If the weather got nicer I would try it ourside cause I do not think you run the same outside vs the tredmil. It rains ALL the time in Germany and I am not running in the rain. I also do not have a jogging stroller so that is a big part of it. I do not use a HRM. I bought the Polar F11 and used it for like 2 days and…

Where is our Mr Sister I want to know how much he lost at work today. I just think that whole things about the work competion it great! I want him to win so bad!

Hey I bet that was more calories burned than you think! Let me know what you think of the Walk away the pounds dvd when you try it.

Hey I give you props for doing the couch to 5 k outside. I am not that motivated yet. I keep thinking I am going to try it outside and then always change my mind. Good luck!

I hate when we get to the second page! Where is everyone! TGIF!

I have like 7 of the Walk Away the Pounds and Walk Slim dvd's. I like them cause they are easier than some videos and fast so I can pop them in when ever I want a quick workout. Which one or how many miles did you get? I have two 1 mile, two 2 mile, a 3 mile, a 4 mile, a 5 mile and a 1 mile jog. Let me know how you like…

I know it can be different for many reasons, scale, time of day, clothes ect. When I met with my trainer the other day I said oh I weighed less this morning but I was naked and had not eaten yet. She said well let me check and she just put a 5 lbs weight on the scale and I thought that was genius. I should do that on my…

Yay! I am glad you weighed on your scale. It is always best to weigh consistantly on the same one. I am in need of a new scale but scared it will tell me I weigh more than the one I have. I dont want that. Anyway congrats!

That is so funny! Sorry your lo's are still sick. How many lbs would that mean you had to lose? I think you can do it! You are doing great. Don't you love seeing measurments change. I think they change way faster than the scale sometimes. I had to change my goals a little and then I actually lowered my goal. I was 190 pre…

Congrats! I have lost 29 since the 5th of January and no one believes me when I say it. I am sure people can't believe you saying 50! That is amazing I would say some hard work on your part!

Yay Congrats! I know how much it means to see the scale move. So did you weigh before your cardio or earlier? Just curious if that is the difference. Also looks like you and your Mom had fun walking in the snow!
