I just circle the block until it is over... makes for interesting runs when I end up going a way I have not been before. :)

OH, ok. :) Thanks! I was hoping to be able to use it both ways... I will look to see where to turn the GPS off for if I run indoors. :)

I didn't know that the chases were linked to how fast you were running. I read in another post that folks who are walking can still get chased. or am I thinking of a different feature??

When it says Zombies aproaching, is that becuase you haven't picked up the pace enough? I have seen peple say they use the treadmill with this app, if youare running indoors how does that work? how do they know you increased?

I plan on starting my run when I get home. 1st mission.... My husband told me to start last night at about 8;30... I told him he was crazy... I could just see myself getting freaked out in the middle of the street because some cat or dog jumped out at me. Daylight hours only for me! haha!

Are you counting only your Zombies, Run! mileage?? I am just staring,,,so mine would be 0! haha!

Is this seperate from the 5k training app? I have that one as I am just getting back into running after a couple years off (only running once or twice per month). I actually want to do a 10K at the end of april.

I just got this yesterday and plan to use it tonight... will it use music off your phone or do you have toload it to the app?? I didn't see where you can load music. Thanks!

So what he loved about you was your weight??? Sorry, but this does not say "I love you the way you are" because the way you ARE is right now, no matter when NOW is... I love the way you WERE, is more like it. When I met my husband I weighed 155, by the time we married I weighed 200! (down from 225). He is always telling me…

What a difficult thing to be going through.... My aunt had breast cancer and had a mastectamy (sp) but she was 60 years old at the time... not much there to miss anymore, and now her breasts will outlive her! I have to agree that if your husband is truly preasuring you to risk the high probability of breast cancer (mother…

I too have been eating at TDEE - 15% for about a week now?? was eating TDEE sedentary - 15% and then eating back workout cals before that. I was hovering between 193 and 191 before this journey, and am now hovering around 191. (before starting this I had gone down to 190.5 for about a day and then back up to 193 and stayed…

^this^ I only comment when asked... Sometimes I want to comment on folks who are constantly under their calorie goal and everyone is cheering and I look only to see they are netting 1000 cals or less... but instead I just don't comment at all. I can't in good concience encourage under eating and they don't want my…

I guess it depends on what you are snacking on??? I eat almost all day... (in fact I am eating right now... blueberries... yummy!) Are your snacks interfering with your callorie goals? You could open you diary so that we can take a look and maybe help you out with alternatives, etc. :)

Exactly. :)

Honestly... I haven't found fast food to be very cheep at all these days. $7 for a meal or $5 for a hamberger? Unless you are eating off the dollar menu you are out almost $20 for 2 people. I have discovered that I spend less money eating at home than I did going out. a bag of burger patties is about $6-8 and the bag of…

:wink: :drinker:

I am 190 and I can burn almost 400 cals on the elliptical in 30 min of mod effort, so I think yours sounds about right. When my sister and I would work out together (she is heavier than I am) we used to compete to see who could burn more... I would ALWAYS have to work harder to catch or beat her cals burned. We both have…

:laugh: :wink: :laugh: :wink: :laugh: :bigsmile:

It seams to me that your husband may be afraid of being "left behind" in life. He said to you to get other interestes, but seams that he doesn't have many of his own? I could be wrong, but you mentioned he plays on the computer and watches TV and can't keep up in physical actities... so..... I agree with some of the other…

if it doesn't stay in it doesn't count... period.

Peanut Butter Baked Oatmeal 3 cups quick cooking oats 1/2 cup brown sugar 1 cup milk 2 tablespoons butter, melted 2 eggs 2 teaspoons baking powder 3/4 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons vanilla 1/2 cup peanut butter Mix all ingredients together and stir well.

^this^ :)

I have actually gotten back down to 190 even and have been sitting there... BUT... I am able to get into a size 14 so go figure! :) I am happy and I believe it is working! yay! And I found it helpful to get all my calories in if I make veggie smoothies. They are healthy and I get at least 4 servings of veggies and 2-4…

Glad to hear it! :) Feel free to friend me if you need encouragement. :)

I would eat more if I were you. I eat 2130 per day... I just started the eat more plan and 1200 cals in not eating more... (sorry, but true) This may have been asked before... Do you know what your BMR is? You should never go below your BMR for dieting. I have only lost .5 pounds, but my pants are falling off me now, I…

Needing a belt for my size 16 pants! need to get the 14s out soon~! whoot!

^this^ And When you realize you may have only lost .5 pounds, but you suddenly need a belt to keep your pants on and will probably go down another pants size as soon as you can afford to go shopping!

Anyone here is free to add me. :)

On my facebook I posted a pic http://www.facebook.com/nysia/timeline/2012/5#!/photo.php? (not sure the link will work....) They are rain gutters secured to a fence with veggies growing in them! :) I don't know how to integrate photos into my posts... anyone help me with that?

I don't find the chest strap a problem. It fits right under my sports bra chest elastic so sometimes I forget it's there. I wear it for hours when I am doing yard work and such.
