Spin, zumba, running, for me this week. Green beans are coming in so I'll be doing lots of squats the next few days!!

Ran a 5K on Saturday, did another run on Sunday and my last boot camp today. I feel somewhat like the tin man. My joints need some oil!! I really need to look in to some kind of stretching workout for tightness and hopefully to make me more limber!. One of my daughters and I are doing a 5K at the beach this Saturday so I…

Have you checked your running shoes? I was having similar problems when I started running and the inside of my leg just below my knee hurt so bad I was not sure I'd be able to keep it up. I went to a walk/run store and they watched me walk and told me my ankle was overpronating on the right side. They put me in a pair of…

Hi All, A very challenging boot camp for me yesterday. It was so hot and I had a headache most of the day so took migraine meds before I went. Not a very wise choice! :sick:

Hi All, Ran 2.5 miles with one of my daughters this afternoon. First run since last weeks so it was a little rough but I made it!

Sharon, I think you should go for it!! You are definitely a motivator and an inspiration! Many times it's the life experiences that enable us to reach people in ways a textbook approach alone can't do. I can tell you do have quite a bit of knowledge concerning diet, fitness, and nutrition and with your experience you'll do…

So glad to get back to working out today. Boot camp with lots of core work and then spin. It was challenging but the sense of accomplishment is worth it!!:smile:

Had family here all weekend so had a hard time staying on track. I just hate it when I have no willpower!! Tomorrow is a new day with boot camp and spin. Looks like lots of you are doing well and are an inspiration! Keep up the great work!! Becky

Looks like everyone is off to a great week. Boot camp and spin for me today. It is getting hot here in FL so the afternoon boot camp was very draining. Boot camp again tomorrow hopefully it we will get a breeze!

Hi Everyone, Did 3 mile run this morning with both of my daughters. I lagged behind a little but finished in 36 minutes. Hope to get it under 35 before the next 5K in mid-May. Have a great evening. Becky

Hi Everyone, Two mile run with one of my daughters this afternoon then a swim in my sister-in-law's pool. It was a wonderful afternoon!:smile: :smile:

Boot Camp today for 1 hour - lunges, medicine ball squats and arm curls, core work, and a 2 mile run for me today.

Hi Everyone, Boot camp and then a spin class after work today. It was very hot outside so I'm working on drinking lots of water right now. I can't believe how much I sweat compared to the other people in class. Wonder why? Becky

I would like to join the challenge!

I too have experienced difficulty in loosing weight. I had a hysterectomy at 26 and ovaries removed at 45. I do use a small dosage of a hormone replacement patch. When younger I did exercise some. I'd say in the last 7 years I have steadily increased weight and gained about 40 lbs. I tried dieting, and diet pills without…

This looks great! I'm going to the store tonight to get the supplies! Thanks for sharing!!

Thanks for your motivation Sharon. Really appreciate you!!

Hi Everyone, I ran/walked my first 5K on Saturday. Finished in 41.32. Have another one in two weeks. Still working through Couch-to-5K. I am now in week 6. I'm having some trouble with my right knee hurting so thought I'd lay off the running for a few days. Spin and Boot Camp tomorrow!

I am really liking C25K! Have a 5 K in two week to run and I'm sure walk some of it. I hope this doesn't last too long. I am going to take everyone's advice and take a few days off soak, ice, and hopefully get a massage :smile:

I got all my water in this week. Exercised 5 out of 7 days. I added the sodium on my tracking last week and can't believe how much sodium is in some of the stuff I've been eating so glad to see the challenge this week.

Hi my name is Becky. I would love to join if it's not too late. I have had some back and neck issues over the last couple of years and decided I needed to get off the couch and get myself back in shape. I started participating in a boot camp two days a week at my workplace in January, attend a spin class a couple days a…

I'm having my bowl of oatmeal right now with a little cinnamon added. You should visit the south! You can't beat a true southern breakfast!!

Wow! Sometimes people are just cruel! Keep up the good work!! You've worked hard to loose weight and the goals you set for yourself are your own.

Checking in. I lost 1.5 lbs this week. Exercised really hard. My legs are very tight. I really need to learn some stretches to help with that.

Thanks for the input. A protein shake it is!!

Thanks for the post. I don't really have swelling in feet or legs. Mainly in fingers causing rings to be tight. I'll check it out with my Dr.
