Thanks! I went out for my run and it was "okay." Not the worst but not the best either. Took it slower and only did about 1.50 miles. Hopefully by Saturday, I will be back to normal! I'm so looking forward to this race!

Thanks! :smile:

Absolutely! Especially since I feel like being sick has screwed my training up!

So, if this is pretty much the first time I've ran all week...?

Thanks! Hopefully I can just let my worries go and enjoy the race!

Oh, I know all about that annoying cough as well! Lol. Thanks for this advice! I will definitely keep that in mind for Saturday! I think I just have in my head this idea of how I want everything to go and I'm now a little frustrated that my "plan" has been thrown off. Oh, life... Haha. I will definitely be counting on that…

Glad you're feeling better!! Thanks for this advice! I try to keep reminding myself that this is only my first of (hopefully) many races and that there's always time to improve! I'll definitely have to keep telling myself "Let's just finish!" Maybe I worry too much? ;)

Thanks! I'm really thinking that the slower run would be great right now. I took a short hiatus from running when the heat got ridiculous in the summer and when I started back my running had actually improved. Maybe that will be the case today!

I guess I should have put in there, that I'm about 95% back to normal, just some sinus drainage and a random, annoying tickle in the back of my throat. :)

I was thinking the same, it sounds wonderful right now and lord knows my muscles could use some "loosening!" lol. Thanks!

Thanks! This gives me some hope! Lol. That sounds awful! Bless you for getting through those migraines and getting back out there!

Thanks! I opened my diary to the public, so feel free to take a look now, although it's been pretty crappy the last month or so. I am glad to know my run later on in the day will not hinder anything I did this morning. Also, what do you mean by not refeeding used calories? Burning them off and then eating the cals back? I…

I am still cutting some body fat, yes. My main goal now is toning and strengthening my body though. Does that help? Thanks for the quick responses, by the way!

I also want to note, my BC was Ocella, a generic of Yaz.

Thank for your reply! I had heard that stopping BC could keep me from having a period for awhile, but i guess I'm impatient. Lol. I just hate not knowing exactly when it will start. I was so used to a routine and now it's all wacky. If it really gets to be be a long period of time, I guess I'll just have to pay out of…

@RinnyLush thanks for your response! I try not too worry too much about it. It's just really bothering me that I haven't had a period since the end of January. I'm not at all concerned about being pregnant, I'm just really concerned about the long-term effects of not having a period. I never thought I'd actually WANT the…

Not trying to sound rude, but I'm aware of the cal deficit and dieting. I'm doing my best with that each day. Just wondering if anyone had seen results from diet and cycling exercise. I suppose I should have been more specific.

I'm in! But what is required for this challenge? I just got a bike and feel so unsure about it at the moment.. Lol

I saw pictures of myself from 5 years ago, before I started dating my current boyfriend. I went from this ridiculously healthy lifestyle to not caring so much about what I ate/how I looked. I never really thought it was that much of a difference, but when I realized I had gone up 4 jean sizes, I knew something had to…

Not the least bit sore today, but my arms feel like jello! I'm now another day behind the group but yesterday's rest was very necessary. Had some issues going on with my GI tract and honestly felt like I was dying. But, rest days ARE okay. It's just about getting back up after a rest day and moving forward! Have a great…

Day 3 was easier! Those static lunges with Bicep curls hurt though. The only thing I'm currently having to modify is the push-ups. Hopefully not by day 10 though! Keep it up y'all!

Hey y'all! I completed day 2 earlier and I feel GREAT! I have never felt this good after a workout! My niece came over (she's 7) and somewhat did the shred with me lol. We then went outside and did some cartwheels and jumped rope. THEN, we came inside and played Just Dance 4 on the wii for about 45 minutes. She and I both…

Yesterday was very eventful for me and with all that happened, plus working I did not get day 1 in with the rest of y'all. :( I did, however, complete my day 1 this morning! I felt like when it began that I would soar through it, easy peasy. By the time I got to the side lunges with a shoulder raise I thought I was going…

The first day ever doing the shred was awful! But, that was due to the fact that I was so out of shape and couldn't handle it. I did as much as I could and took a few breaks when I felt like I was going to pass out. Please continue this challenge with us! Don't be afraid! It sucks the first few days but if you're really…

So excited to do the 30 Day Shred this month! I completed it once before about a year ago and have since fallen off the wagon. Feel free to add me for support and motivation! I plan to make this a great month as I am hoping to be down at least 10lbs by the end of december! Here we go! Neck: 12 inches Right Arm: 11.5 inches…
