Ok...I thought I was retarded!!!! I have been stuck on week four for 3 weeks and it was because i was so tired that I couldnt complete the last 5 minute run but now tha tmakes more sense because I was confused at the last bit of her "non verbal cue" week becuase it seemed to be too long! thanks for the tip. Im just headed…

I am going to spend one more week at week4 just to make sure i CAN move on 100% to week 5 but i was so excited to finish it. i went out and did the whole walk/run and then I timed it that i…

I am soooo diapointed in myself now :( I went to do run 4 week 4 but it was so hot and muggy that it was hard to walk for long, let alone run. i made it thru the first 3 min run and part of the 5min run bu tthe second time I didnt even run becasue it was so heavy feeling. I just dont know how to push through the 5min runs!…

No, you are not being unreasonalbe in feeling hurt. It never feels good to feel like you are not doing the duties you "should be". You are obviously a good mother, a BUSY mother and one who believe in herself. Maybe your husband just didnt realize how his response came off? I am wondering if while perhaps he DOES want you…

HOLY 6lbs, that is great!!! congrats on all yoru hard work. i wouldnt really worry about the "30 day" part of it, if you arent ready to move up to level 2 yet, I think thats fine because you want to get the best results possible and if you arent ready, thenyour form and technique could suffer if you do to much to fast :)…
-
Ok...so I had to work an early 4hr shift (and I like to run in the early am) and I wanted to run but it is usually really hot by noon so I am actually going to be running at noon today but I am facing another fear aside from the darn 5 min runs in week four..its raining outside today (mainly drizzling) but I am going to…
-
AWwww i am so excited for everyone for takign that first step yesterday (or today) and I think its just so awesome!!! I cant wait to see/hear about everyones runs each week! Week 4 is killing me! I am finding the 5min runs really hard. My calves kill by the middle of it, and i stretch after running so Im not really sure…
-
i enter mine by seperating the walking and running in the excersise section and then entering the minutes for each one and that gives a farily good aprox for me :) Hope that helps Oh...and week 4, day 3 was HELL....I think I am going to repeat this week a couple more days just to make sure I can run the 5 min well!…

Hi there, I just stumbled across this site and I think its amazing. I weigh 250lbs and need to loose 100lbs to be 100% healthy as far as my dr is concerned. Iknow its not quite 50% of my body weight, but is it ok if I still join? I have been at this weight FOREVER and need some motivation to keep trying to get where I need…
-
I am on week 4 of the program but is it ok if I still join too? I LOVE IT! I am struggling with week four and might end up repeating it but oh well. Suz's podcasts are AMAZING They are really easy to follow and the hip hop music is upbeat enough and has a strong-enough beat to make running more interesting! I am looking…

I have been doing the plan outside every time and i missed my run thursday so I had a break at work (I work in a fitness facility) I decided to do my run inside on the treadmill...NEVER AGAIN! the actuall running part was definately easier than running outside but I kept looking at the countdown every 20-30 seconds instead…

Ok ladies, I am taking the weekend off because i will not be around my house moer than a few minutes until sunday night at 9pm (and I dont like to do any exercise the hour before bed) so monday I am back at it HARDCORE and looking forward to it. I even got my fiance interested in it so we are going to do it together each…
-
Ok...I just found you guys! I was off thursday-friday for my 'weekend' and went away with the fiance and I fell off the wagon :( I dont know what happened, I think it was probably just me being stressed and eating my feelings because I tend to do that but yeah...not the best choices were made! the part that annoyed me the…

Hey Pet, I repeated week 2 because the 90 seconds was harder than the 60 seconds but now the 3 minutes wasnt to hard lol. Man my body is WEIRD lol! I am looking forward to pushing myself a little harder on thursday because i am away from tomorrow afternoon til friday afternoon so I'll get to run in a new area too lol :)

-
thanks pet!| Its good to know that Im notthe only onestill struggling with the longer runs. I might have to try your technique of adding a couple minutes onto it at the end beforewalking becaues I have a huge fear that I wont be able to run the whole 5 minutes! there is probably nothing wrong with doing that since its…
-
So I have to admit...Im a little scared now to try week 4. i strugglled a little bit with the 3 minute runs but i repeated it a couple more time and it didnt get any better lol. I hope that week 4 gets better....Does anyone else struggle wiht the longer runs? Im not sure if its just my weak cardiovascular or if I jus thave…

so the weekend is NOT MY FRIEND. I try to be good but I agree, I tend to undo what i work so hard for. I am just kinda feeling blah and down today. I have to get up at 5:30 am and go for a run and then do the shred when I get home. I just really need to kick it in high gear again soon!! I want to go wedding dress shopping…

We go up to the Niagara region in ontario every year for a few days and my favourite part is walking all the trails and then attempting the hike to the top of the tower at Queenston Heights! It took me forever a couple years ago, I didnt attempt it last year, and I AM SHOOTING FOR THE TOP again this year :) I love that…

I went for a run/walk (day 3, week3 for the couch to 5km) and then did the shred video.

Good luck to everyone today and tomorrow! i always find…
