1. Run a 5K in October (2 weeks after my birthday, my college is putting one on. I'm trying to get my fellow weather nerds to participate.) 2. Run a half marathon by next year sometime (not set in stone, but I still wanna do it some time before the end of next year.) 3. Do a 90 day challenge.

I like this thread. =) Here's one of my best shots. You can check out more on deviantart.com: http://bowechomedia.deviantart.com/

I can't even begin to tell you how much I DESPISE my arms. They jiggle like jello and to me, it's sooo disgusting. I love wearing tank tops, but unless I have something over it, there's no way I'll go out in public like that. I feel bad too, because I have so many other issues, but it takes time, I know, and someday soon,…

I started at the gym for the simple fact that it's been too damn HOT outside to run. (I don't wanna kill myself.) That's helped me build up a lot of confidence so when I do start running outside, I can let it all out and have fun instead of worry about what people are going to think.

Ooh!! Pick me! Pick me!! I'm almost done with week 2! But I have over 100lbs to lose. I love running though. =D

I'd have to agree with you on that. I'm doing it for myself, just to prove that I *CAN* do something when so many people have told me it's impossible. I'm still trying to even get to my first race, but I can't wait for it because I know if I finish, I'll want to keep going, maybe to bring up my time, maybe because I'll…

I'm on a shorter goal of running a 5K by October. But add me if you like! Running a marathon is a loooong term goal. Maybe some time in the next year and a half. Also, I'm using the Couch-2-5-K app that's available on Android and iPhones. It's great for keeping a pace and training.

Multi vitamin, some extra D and B12. I'll be starting the fish oil when I find out which one my cousin takes because apparently it doesn't taste bad.

I'm down. Although I have double that to lose in order to get to 130.

I know what you mean. I had that same problem. So glad I got the HRM. Today's run was a good example. Treadmill showed 200 calories, HRM 303. BIG difference.

-I want to run a 5K in the next 8 weeks (even if it's on a treadmill, just so long as I can prove to myself that I CAN do it). -I'd like to be able to fit into a shirt I bought back in high school (10 years go) that I never wore. It still has the tags too. -I'd like to weigh less than 200lbs by the end of this year. -My…

It's happened to me before... It turns nearly black. Kinda scary the first time it happened, but after that, everything was fine.

My award winning storm photo. Probably one of the best shots of my career. :)

Daaaa Bears.

I remember I'm doing this for myself, but I also want it to be a big SCREW YOU to all the people who never gave me a chance because I was FAT.

I agree, too much sodium. More veggies and fruits need to be added to that diet, less lunch meats, and more lean meats like chicken and fish.

Knee problems. Friend problems. People saying nasty things behind my back (on Twitter, no less!). Sick and tired of being sick and tired. Mind you, this isn't the first time I've *tried*, but it's the first time I've COMMITTED. I've seen my fair share of bumps in the road (a 2 month "**** it" comes to mind from May to the…

See, I gained the freshman 15, then the sophomore 20, the junior 25... What I'd do is never find out where the vending machines are. That was my worst enemy when I was going to college. Still is the second time around, but thankfully my new college also stocks healthier options in its vending machines. Then find out where…

Ghost Adventures with a side of boredom.

Every single thing you just said (aside from Lapband surgery) resonated with me to the point where I nearly started to cry because I feel the same way you do. I have few friends, if any that really mean something. I'm too self conscious to date. And I feel that food is the only thing that makes me happy. I've tried to find…

Zak Bagans. So yummy...

When I was a little kid, I was stick thin, then I had my tonsils removed and my grandma/mom would constantly feed me stuff that was awful for my health. I gained a lot of weight and by 5th grade, I was a "fatty". By then, my mom got on my case about it, and it pissed me off, so I kept eating crap just to piss her off. That…

BUMP! Must read later.

I think I might get back on the wagon. Might as well considering I've got nothing to do as it is.

Bumblebee from the Transformers movies.

The scale doesn't mean jack crap. You should take your measurements because that's where it counts. Waist, hips, chest, arms, thighs, and any other part of the body you think needs work.

Oooh, gotta bump. That sounds yummy!
