  • Isnt that the truth! I just got back from the gym and finished Day 2 of Week 3 it went really well.
  • You can do it absolutely! I feel you on the feet pain. It wont stop us though ! HOPE THIS HELPS
  • Congrats on your weight loss so far. I am a mom of 4 and I have about 50 lbs to lose. Feel free to add me. :)
  • Hi! 37 5'0". I have 4 kids work 3rd shift part time. I'm down 17.8 have 53 to go. Always looking for motivatiors :)
  • I wonder the same thing. Not only 170 calories but 15 grams of fat. I know they are good fats but MFP doesnt have a good fat, bad fat logging. Does it count the same way towards fat and calories then?
  • I just finished Day 1 of week 3. I run on the treadmill. I actually hate running inside but read a few places for beginners the treadmill is better. Week 2 day 2 was the worst for me. I was nervous about today but I made it :)
  • Thanks for posting both of these. I think they are going to be a great help!!!!
  • I start week 3 today. Does anyone else experience shin splints or heel pain? I have both. A Mom I know from baseball is a marathon runner so I picked her brain over the weekend. She said investing in a good pair of running shoes is the answer! She told me of a running store where they look at your feet and do other things…
  • Wow everyone lives in such beautiful places. Would be so nice to be able to visit them all! I'm glad noone you knew was hurt in the earthquake Alex.
  • I am currently living in Tennessee, U.S.A. I am originally from the Chicago area of Illinois and will be moving back in about 2 years I cant wait!!!! So I will post a picture of both places :) CHICAGO'S SKYLINE Nashville Tennessee Country Music Capitol of the world And great idea to do this!!!!
  • So I decided since the Y is closed tomorrow I should make that my off day. Soccer and baseball are over so I figure I will go get some cardio in.
  • Woo hoo it's my off day today! :)) One soccer game and one baseball game today. So i will be getting a little calorie burn in cheering for my kiddies and their teams. Everyone have a nice Easter!
  • I just finished week 2. Day one of week 2 was pretty good. Day 2 I felt great. Today I was thinking of this group during my run to help me out. I just wasnt into it today. But I completed it! Nervous about week 3, I think I may slow down a bit. Tomorrow is my rest day. Next run is Monday. Good luck girls!!!!
  • Welcome. I'm 5'0" and my goal weight is 130. Feel free to add me and I will help cheer you on. :smile:
  • Awesome! Sounds like that margarita is well deserved! Enjoy your vacation!
  • I'm fine with posting here :)
  • I am so excited about this group I already have next weeks inspiration ready :)
  • I want to say first I'm so sorry! Not being supported by a spouse is diffucult. I have been on this weight loss roller coaster for years and what my hubby does is constantly bring home foods that I crave and have no will power over. Or he is always saying lets meet up for lunch where again I have trouble staying away from…
  • Thanks for this info. Already searched and found some in my area. How long have you used flax seed? Does it help with mood swings and such?

  • Ok I will do that then :flowerforyou:
  • Hello ladies! I have Thursday, so will I start a new topic or will we have one for motivation that we each add to on our day?
  • Question???? Do we come back to this post on our said day to post our inspirations or will you be making a group?
  • Hello. I'm Dawn and I claim Thursday! I sometimes need to be reminded it's ok if I am the slowest runner out there. I tend to beat myself up that I can only jog at a 4.5 to a 4.7 Wishing everyone the best of luck for the next 9 weeks! Lets do this!
  • Hi. I'm 37 years old. Just found your site thru a post I saw from someone else. I am so glad I found this group. I had an emergency hysterectomy in Oct of 08. I joined MFP in Jan and have lost 17 pounds. I dont think it could come off any slower. I am grateful those pounds are gone though. I have about 50 more to lose.

  • I've been in menopause for 3 years now. I have noticed losing weight is not as easy as my pre menopausal days. I have lost 17 pounds and it has taken 70 days. I don't take any hormones. Not sure if taking any would help. Good luck

  • I'm in......I love challenges. As for an idea however, I don't have one. I will keep checking back to see if you think of one or if anyone has a suggestion. Maybe I will search to get some ideas.
