  • I feel you. I started C25K a few weeks back and I thought I was going to have a coronary with just the thought of being out there. But, I went. I have over 100 lbs to lose so I am sure I am quite a sight. There ended up being quite a few people in the area I chose to go to, but it's still remote from the main road, so it…

  • As a morbidly obese person also doing C25k - YAAAAAY! We are a rare breed for sure. I was thinking about doing the zombie app but downloaded the traditional for now. =) I feel silly telling people I'm doing it they just look at me like I'm crazy but to be honest I feel really good. I kind of hate it when I first start but…

  • I'm on week 2 right now and have about 100 lbs more to lose than you - but I have learned when it comes to running - it doesn't matter how much you have to lose. If you are new to running it's going to take some time to condition the lungs, heart, and legs. I use my HRM but I mostly listen to myself. If I am going too fast…

  • Definitely call your doctor and let him/her know all of this! If a medication isn't working for you try another! If you don't feel right you won't function properly! Keep a diary of fluctuations (not only in weight, but mood, etc) and let your doctor know what's up. You deserve to find success and if you are going to work…

  • I see a few options for you. 1. If it is a walk around and eat appetizers party, find the smallest plate possible, and get one or two of everything you like. 2. Get a drink in hand it is hard to eat and drink while standing! 3. Look at your food options and see what you HAVE to HAVE and eat it. 4. Indulge, log, and move…

  • Order what you want, immediately cut it in half, and only eat one half? I do this often now and find I can still go out to eat and enjoy! My hubby (or whomever I go out with) and I often share dinner now too! We save money AND eat less. It's a win win!

  • Ugh! I've been sick for days, it's in my chest making it so hard to do much of anything. Tomorrow is my birthday - but I'm hoping to get some miles in. I'm rooting for everyone as I hack up a lung over here! =( I am antsy not getting my sweat on.

  • I would browse for awhile and find a style you really like. Then comparison shop different designers and shops. Also - talk to whomever will be doing your alterations and ask their opinion? Some dresses can be heavily altered for a dramatic weight loss - others cannot. Of course the first dress I tried on "was the one"…

  • I own zero of her videos - all You Tube right now. However, I have quite a few on my wishlist (for either me to buy post holiday and as gift ideas for the family). My favorite is the three mile walk with weights. I've done it with and without weights and both work up quite a sweat! I've also grown tired with the background…
