I'm in the Fort Wayne area.. :))

I started c25k last May. I was "running" at around 3.5mph when I got up to 8mins or more at a time. Not impressive in my book. THEN when I started running outside around week 8 of the program I was surprised that my speed was FASTER than on the treadmill. I am now training for a 1/2 marathon this September and I currently…

Maybe I don't know a back story to this, but it's just pizza... everything in moderation is my view!

YES, I have the same thing!! If I don't eat in the morning, I can go till noon or 1pm without eating and feel fine. BUT if I eat breakfast at 9am, I am starving by 11:30. It's annoying to me..LOL!

I use Runtastic for free on my blackberry. Love it!

Yes it's best to do it the first thing when you wake up. 2 lines means PREGNANT!! BUT I will saying if you are trying and thinking and worrying.. you might just be late because of that. It happened to me with my first time "trying" ... was late the first 2 months we tried but was pregnant the third month when I was late.…

I limit myself to 48 ounces of water a day. Once I drink the first 16-24 ounces, I start pee'ing.. then I don't stop it seems like. On a normal day (with 48 ounces throughout the day) I will pee 10 or more times. I just don't have the bladder size or control others have. I have seen people drink 100 ounces in a day on…

I have fibro as well (since 2003). I also have crohn's disease (medication causes severe joint pain) as well as degenerative discs in my lower back so I understand chronic pain. Some days it's a struggle to find the motivation, strength, energy, etc to exercise but in the end it always makes me feel better when I do. You…

University of Michigan all the way.. GO BIG BLUE!! (Married to a Buckeye fan.. things get interesting during football season! LOL)

Way to go!!! I have lost 21 and still have 61 to go and I'm almost 3 months into my journey. People like you are proof that it can happen!!!!! :)

I'm a D cup and I got a Champion sports bra from target. I think it was $18 or so. I don' t like anything that is SUPER tight and it's great... comfy, affordable and allows me to run without my chest hurting.

Already burned over 300 during my w1d2 of Ease into 10k this morning. Will do a 5k walk in the morning with possible zumba afterwards!!

I'm IN! Tomorrow is my off day of running so I'll walk on the treadmill and maybe do zumba for a change in workout. :)

I finished c25k last week. I run on the treadmill at around 4mph but outside I run closer to 5mph. For me being able to keep the same pace was more important than speed. I started at only 3.5mph running but built up to a little faster. I always used the incline at 1%. I am now running outside only until my first 5k on Sept…

You're doing awesome!! Keep up the good work!!!

I lost my motivation last year after losing the first 13 pounds. I started doing it because we were going on vacation for my best friends wedding and that was my motivation. After the wedding/vacation, I stopped working out. I stopped watching what I was eating as well. I gained almost 20 lbs since Sept 2010. One day I…

I'm on Week 6 Day 3 tomorrow of C25k. I am over 100 lbs over weight and I could barely run the 90 seconds of week 2 without feeling like I was dying! I am so proud of myself for sticking with this program. It's awesome! I have only lost 9 lbs but I have also lost 6 inches. I run on the treadmill because my crohn's disease…

If you search for walking it will give you various speeds and you choose how fast you walked and put in the minutes... that'll give you the calories you burned during your 1 mile walk.

Last year I lost 10 lbs with EA Active 1 (in 2 months time).. a few months back I got 2 and I love it.. I also have the wii fit balance board that I use with it. It really works you out!!! I don't use it as much now because I am doing a running program called Couch to 5k. Goodluck with active 2 :)

I am on week 5 day 1 (finished it this morning) and I plan to run a 5k late August/early Sept. It's a GREAT program!!! Goodluck!

awesome job!!!!!!

I agree with what everyone else said, there are more than likely more than 4 servings. I use manwich for sloppy joes and 1 regular can with 1 pound of ground beef (85/15) will make 6 big sandwiches or 8 regular ones. I would adjust the serving size for your recipe and it'll be less :) I LOVE THE RECIPE FEATURE!!!

I don't know what area you are in but I would be happy to support and encourage you. I am in North East Indiana. I am a stay at home mom to a 2 and 5 year old. For me, early am is the best time to work out. Sometimes I set my alarm and get up before my girls are awake. But most days, I find something to occupy them for 30…

I make a similar chicken in the crock pot.. chicken breasts, rotel and a taco or fajita seasoning... then top with shredded cheese before you serve it. Yummy!

I think the point of eating before is to give your body my energy while running. I like you, like to get up before my girls and get on the treadmill. But because I'm so out of shape and need all the help I can get, I am trying to eat some fruit and then 30 mins later get on the treadmill. GOODLUCK!

Turbo Jam is awesome! Chalene really kicks your butt and it's fun too!
