But.......take your time and before you know it you will look in the mirror and say wow...all this work was so worth it. Just keep…
  • I def would say 80 degrees, cold weather is what stopped me from running. I heard one story and it scared me enough to not run out of the cold..ha! I have t ran since spring 2013 and that was first time since fall 2012. I plan to get back out there and run no matter what. I can't say I'd never like running in cold because…
  • It's super cold here too...5 degrees but feels in the negatives...soup sounds lovely ;)
  • I also in 2012 just started running, I wanted to accomplish something for myself and running was it. It was torturous at first but got easier and I LOVED running. Then the cold set in and I just stopped unfourtantely . For some reason I can't run on treadmill. It's a lot harder for me to do treadmill. I plan to pick up…
  • I weigh myself every morning, it's the first thing I do. It helps me me focused during the day. I like seeing those small losses but I do not log it everyday. As if last 3 days my scale has been broke so I have to get a new one and it's OK. I'm not freaking out, I just been staying focused. There's no right or wrong here.…

I have had two and I have always heard it won't ever be flat...When I lost 52 lbs I don't remember it being a problem though but I don't believe it was 100% flat and well now I'm starting ALL over because I gave up and stop…

  • Oh man, where to begin. I started April 2011 on this journey. I had a great workout partner who kept me on my toes. She was always free to walk walk walk, run little walk some more. We always ate healthy together and we joined WW and I lost a total of 52 lbs. my husband took me and bought all new clothes and I dressed cute…
  • Hi! Today is only my second day back, yup that's right I said back. I started 2 years ago and logged in everyday for over a year. I was so proud of myself and met new people on here who also encouraged me. I lost 50 lbs. it's so easy to be down but try to remember it's a life style change and nothing happens over night.…
  • 1. I want to be able to walk into a clothing store and have no problem trying cute clothes on AND liking them on me. 2. I want to be active with my 3 boys and do fun outdoor things with them without feeling like I'm about to die. 3. I want to feel comfortable in my own skin, not be so self conscious with my husband. I want…
