My favorite quote is " no matter how slow you run you are lapping the personon the couch" here is the other thing - i am 250 pounds and I run 5k's - my favorite things is passing the skinny people when I run. I know people don't expect it - i have learned there are "fat" skinny people.

it is right if you are about 240 pounds. but you don't look like you are anywhere near that

I wear a heart rate monitor and I weigh 240 pounds - the more you weigh the more you burn - if you weigh 150 pounds and run a mile that might be true but I weigh 240 pounds when i run a mile i burn more calories due to my size.

1. Drop 5 pounds 2. if june 30 i am 5 pounds lighter - reward - (tattoo) 3. run 4 miles consistently by june 30 (currently at 2 - 3 on weekends) 4. Eat better -

please both of you add me i can kick butt but need butt kicking at times as well

i recently have been running them. I try to run 3 miles one day the other days i concentrate on doing a little hills or something - never know what route some 5k will take you. I rest at least the day prior. I find that if I do I usually do better. last week i had a 5k. I ran 3 miles on monday, did eliptical tuesday,…

I'm in APRIL 25 MAY 2 239.1 -1.7

i'm slightly off center but don't have an issue. I hold the board with my hands forearms ont he board and i have to wear sneakers otherwise i'm not as steady. I have progressed to the longer versions but I have a much much harder time holding it steady for those

yeah it has a chest strap - i checked with my personal trainer - she says HRM is likely more accurate but nothing wrong with logging the lower number. i got it so i could monitor and keep my heart rate up while working out

My recommendations to the HIgh fiber one as well - I like tht maple and brown sugar - i too hate the texture - the taste is fine. I mix with water but put it in a styrofoam cup and watch how much water i put in it. I pretty much swallow it whole. no sense in keeping it in my mouth longer than I have too. Its so good for…

thanks for all the replies - I do have a chest strap and was shocked at the calorie count. I will admit the gym and the heart rate monitor were both calculating the same heart rates while i exercised which was a plus. burning that many calories is just nbot possible. i plan on going with the gym equipment as it is lower…

1. Firework - Katy Perry Lyrics make me go a little faster - 'Ignite the light and let it shine" 2. Something in your mouth - Nickelback (just love it ) 3. Shake It - metro station 4. SEX - nickelback I love anything so thanks for posting your fav's - hopefully a few other people will and I can add to my running music

Write down the reasons you want to do it and post it on the same mirror you use to get ready in the AM - don't just post it READ it every time you look in the mirror. Make sure that your reason are for YOU not for others. you will be more successful if you do it for you! Motivation comes from knowing i"m making these…

my band i have to tighten and my cup i think I lost a half of a size and I have lost 28 pounds. my mom is the one who pointed out that I lost weight in my boobs! thanks mom. now I notice the cups gather in the front - not pretty for some shirts

we are using the powder form of wheatgrass - looking for it to mix with something. Wheatgrass replaces one leafy vegetable.

i run at 4.2 and 4.0 is a very very brisk walk - not sure who is walking but holy crap!! 5.0 is suppose to be a normal person run pace. i'm 5'7 and 234 soi thought i was doing great at 4,2

i'm game

what about wii fit vs EA sports. I have the original wii fit and I keep seeing EA sports and I am thinking this might be more entertaining and harder work. just thinking. any one got a comparision.

I rented the entire season of Dexter and stayed on for the episodes. I made it through season 1 - 4. I got bored with it too. counting down helps if you plan how long you will be on. The other options is too do some sprints. I also have done i will run till my washer quits - go throw them in dryer and then run some more.…

It's kind funny although only losing 25 pounds so far I use to hide myself behind the baggy clothes. I recently wore a tighter fitting t-shirt and I recieved so many compliments I was a little undomfortable. I find myself looking at even my t-shirts differently. My t-shirts now hang from my shoulders instead of getting…

I have a PROFORM 530x. I run about 2-3 miles a day and I have had the thing about 6 years - only one repair. I would say the first 3 years I likely did not use it - but this last year I have used it almost every day! good luck - go and find a place where you can test one - ****'s sporting goods, sears etc. I bought mine at…

I'm in all the way I have 6.8 to go in December _ i can do this!

I found it depressing - it is always nice to see the progress they make each week. One guy said he lost over 155 pounds in 6 months - i just don't know how you maintain that loss so fast like that. I have lost 24 pounds since August and I think that is good sure I would love to be at 50 pounds lost but I know i am working…

i wish i felt that way. I feel a difference in my clothes but not when i look in the mirror. still see the fat persona nd looking for the skinnier me. it annoys me because my clothes i see the difference but in my appearence I don't

Thanks for the feedback - i will be doing the one pill version and I am stopping after they are gone - we will see how it goes. thanks for the feedback

I am fine once i get started but the most enjoyable part for me in a run is competing in a 5k race. I never thought i would like it after all I'm fat. Once i did my first one I was hooked. I do one every month now. The best part is passing a skinny person and realizing that just because there are skinny people does not…

i buy the six star whey protein from walmart it's 17 dollars and that is exactly what I do - i drink it for breakfast. it's not bad i like the chocolate and the french vanilla. no bad after taste. it's only 150 calories. i have used them for a meal replacement as well. sometimes getting home late at night you want…

walk walk walk - you can kick it up by walking with weights till you get stronger. walk longer each time - keep your heart rate up. You can do it! i'm overweight - no knee problems but i run 5k's now - the first one I did i walked most of it - but i was 289 pounds then. now 245 and jogging a 5k. you can do it - just keep…
