Yes! It would be an amazing accomplishment just to do it in the first place. I'm doing a 5k in September and I will probably do terribly, but I'm doing it anyway, and I'm going to be proud. Go for it! :flowerforyou:

I have wide feet. I have Brooks running shoes and they are extremely comfortable! I highly recommend them. I went to a running store (Fleet Feet) and they fitted my feet and suggested these to me.
-
I have found it to be extremely inaccurate. I use a heart rate monitor to track my calories burned, and that is much lower than what MFP says.
-
It's 3 pounds higher than my ultimate goal. :)
-
I second the MapMyRun. Really cool app.
-
I always trust mine... so I hope it's right! :smile: I use it for speed walking (usually 4 MPH though) as well as the elliptical, bike, etc.
-
I bought mine on Amazon. It comes with the strap and everything you need.
-
I also love my Polar FT4. It's awesome. My only suggestion... if you get one, make sure you have the strap on high enough. I had it on too low and once in awhile the heart rate reading would get whacko on me. Other than that, it's great! Highly recommend it!
-
Yeah buddy, you rock! You're killin' it! Keep it up.
-
Oh wow, lucky! My gym closes early on Friday and Saturday!
-
I'm also getting one for my 50 pound mark. It's going to be on my wrist. Not sexy, but I do like how it looks!
-
Tell her. Girls always want to know how you feel lol. Good luck.
-
Hey, I'm sorry to hear you're dealing with this. I also have anxiety and have been off my medication for about four months now. Not gonna lie, sometimes I still find myself in really high anxiety situations. I just try to rationalize the situation in my head, take a breath, and do something else. Don't really have a lot of…

Love, love, love! Some of the nicest doggies I know are Pit Bulls. :)
-
Oh my goodness, girl! Incredible! Looking amazing.
-
I liked reading everyone's stories, how nice! I am also in a long distance relationship and of course I think they can work! LOTS of people have made it work, so why not? I met my guy online, on this site actually, and we are currently in different states but he's coming in June to visit and it will be the best time ever.…

So freaking proud of you, love! :heart: :happy:

Brownies are my favorite everrr. Thanks for sharing. Will try! :flowerforyou:

I've seen this book around quite a bit actually (I'm a librarian), but I've never read it. It does sound good though, and I'm glad to hear it's helped you out! Some people on here are dissing self-help books, but I think it's great! Whatever helps you through, ya know? I too went through a breakup a few months ago... got…

Dakota! He is a four year old rescue. Bichon/Pekingese mix. He's way too cute for words. :)
-
Sounds good, thanks!
-
Haha cute! I hate those tanks with the built in bras. WORST EVER!
-
Rochester!

Love this, thank you so much for sharing it! I just started training for a 5K and I feel like I'm the slowest person in the whole world. Thanks for the inspiration! :smile:

When I first started working out, I only used my Wii. I played Gold's Gym Dance Workout for about a month exclusively. I don't play it anymore because now I just go to the gym, but it was great to get me started. I'd recommend it.
-
Adam, I'm super sad that you're feeling this way since we both know I would NOT have started eating better if it weren't for you telling me I really needed to three months ago haha. You have a lot to be proud of. You DO NOT look obese. You look really healthy and I'm sure your partner thinks you look fabulous as well. Just…
-
This is on my to-read list. I've heard excellent things!
-
I would really love to!
-
I wear a sports bra when I run because otherwise, yeah, not comfortable lol. When I'm at the gym though, I just wear a regular one. Probably shouldn't but oh well. I have a hard time finding sports bras too. Apparently they think people with big boobs don't work out lol.
-
Yes... or maybe fly. But I am a romantic and I believe in fate and all that... and what if, theoretically of course, this was the person meant for you? :) Gotta take a leap of faith sometimes. Go for itttttt.
