My current goal weight is between 135 and 140. If I happen to get down to 135 and think that I can go further than I will consider it. I don't want to spend the rest of my life fighting my body though haha. If I look good and can be healthy at 140, and my body doesn't want to lose any more, than I won't.

The first half mile is usually uncomfortable for me when I feel sore like that. Afterwords though my muscles loosen up and generally feel better.

I've been told I look like Zooey Deschanel. It's definitely the dark hair and the bangs haha. I also got Alexis Bledel when my hair was lighter.

I major in Biology. Queen because I thought it looked nice with Bio haha. I love me some biology.

I would love to join! I want to lose 15 more pounds ASAP. November and December have slowed progress for the last three years, but I always get back on track in January. I really want to be between 135 and 140. Right now I'm at 153 (gained 5 pounds over the holidays, just lost 2 of those haha) and I am ready to go! I've…

I would love one too, but it's not really for aesthetics. I HATE summer time when I have to always think about how uncomfortable I will be if I wear shorts or a skirt/dress. It's the discomfort I really want to get rid off.

I'm in. I am trying to lose another 15 potentially by summer!

I'm 21 and just finishing up my senior year. It's definitely rough at school with friends eating whatever and whenever they want haha. It is definitely doable though! For me I had to work on my priorities. I've lost 30 pounds in college, it hasn't been steady though. Feel free to add me!

College is definitely a difficult place to lose weight - I've been struggling with it for the past three years. I've lost 30 pounds, but its been a little up and down. You have to find little strategies that work for YOU. Sadly, I don't know how easy it is to motivate someone, but the main goal is to stick with whatever…

Hi! The same thing is happening to me right now. I just switched times! I'm not sure if that is an option for you or not. Since I am in school I have a hard time running during the daytime. I actually run at night between 6:00-10:00. It's still dark out, but I've been awake all day. I also think it's peaceful. I bought a…

Hi! I am running in NH and it is starting to get chilly! I bought the cold gear underarmor, and so I am happy just wearing that. I wear the regular underarmor pants that go just below my knees. Soon I'll probably have to throw on a light jacket too - but once I am up and going I'm pretty warm.

Mile 32! Just jumped behind a tree because someone was coming to get me.

Thanks everyone! And I know all of you who want to get there will! 100 % possible!

Yeah - I was thinking of doing maybe two, shorter runs a week in the Minimus and then using my Asics for longer runs until I can build up. I liked them a lot though - the running felt so different!

The particular kind I am looking at are the Vibrams!

I ALWAYS lose weight/inches the fastest when I am running. The elliptical doesn't do it... or the bike. Running.

This week I've run 17.5! So 431.69 + 17.5 = 449.19

Hi! I definitely consider myself a beginner runner. I started running in June at about 4 mph for only 15 minutes. Now I am up to 5.0-5.5 mph with long runs between 5-6 miles. I am pretty happy with the distance, but I really want to work on time! I would love to be able to run 3 miles under 30 minutes.

Ahhh this is so cool! I want to start (even if a little late). I've run 13 miles this week. Is there a place where you can figure out where you are at a given time? Thanks!

Studying... well, the stress that comes with a lot of necessary studying. It's my senior year at university and along with classes, research, and med school apps I'm always so busy. I am super-stress eater. Most of the time I am fine, but since this semester started I have had two really bad weeks. The rest have been great!

Thanks guys! That makes sense.

I don't log coffee, zero cal things, or gum. Also, if my roommates make something and I try a bit (the smallest one I can manage), I won't log it. I am usually under cal, so I know there is a buffer zone. It works for me and I find it maintainable. It may not work for everyone, and kudos to everyone who DOES log…

I eat 2 whole eggs (scrambled) per day. I might change to one whole egg and the egg whites. So far my english muffin with peanut butter and scrambled eggs breakfast has kept me full 100% until lunch time... which is awesome! So I will probably stick to it. I have no idea how my cholesterol is affected. I eat other foods…

I am a new runner too (I started this spring)! I would recommend starting on a treadmill, unless you get REALLY bored (I use music). The treadmill allows you to know how fast you are going and keep a steady pace. I then moved outside and I do like that more, but I know what I can and can't handle. I'm from New England, so…

I go out on my own all the time! I really like being by myself sometimes. I am a very punctual person, and I LOVE being on my own schedule. I also can do what I want, when I want.

I used to be the kid in high school who would only run three quarter-mile laps instead of four because I was embarrassed at my time and that I had to walk. I don't think I could even get around one lap without stopping for a walk break. I found that it is best to build up endurance slowly. I know a lot of people do a couch…

Those are US sizes, I can never figure out the UK ones! haha

I started out at a 14 (which was pretty tight) and now I am down to a size 10 (and possibly even an 8... some of my 10's are big on me). In most shirts I fit into a medium.
