Hi, I am Sheryl. I started C25K in January and have run a couple 5k's and a 10k, and now getting ready to run my first half at the end of October. Looking to run a few halfs in 2014 and eventually work up to a whole in the next few years. In less than a year I have gone from hating running to being addicted! I love the…

^^^ THIS!! I can not be trusted with potato chips in the house, so I eat them in small bags with a sandwich for lunch, or in a restaurant to feed the craving with built in portion control! Also pizza.... any size turns into a single serving. I have no problems with candy or sweets though...

I started with timed using C25K and it worked really well. Once I could consistently run several times a week I started going by distance.

I just signed up for my first half marathon on October 27th. I started running last January, and have worked up to a long run of about six miles, so I have some training to do for sure! Feel free to add me, the more support the better and would love to hear of your progress!

Canadian Bacon and a little shredded cheese... delicious!

I am 44 and the past year has been an amazing awakening for me in terms of fueling my body with healthy food (most of the time! :tongue: ) and starting running which I never thought I could do. Feel free to add me, always open for more support and friendship on this journey! :love: :love:

I love to run in the morning, and I never eat before I go. I will have a little water when I get up, then head out to run. Post run I will usually have a protein drink or something while getting ready for work, and drink lots of water, then have some "real" breakfast once I get to work.

I am just under 5'6 and my goal is around 135, I am currently at 142, down 28 pounds and it feels really good! But I would like to lose a few more and then focus on overall toning. I am 44.

That is awesome... thank you for sharing!!

I have had the FitBit One for a few months now and I absolutely love it! It motivates me to get up and move, besides my actually workouts! I think the biggest eye opener for me was seeing that if I went to the gym and did a killer workout, but didn't really move the rest of the day I wasn't really getting the calorie burn…
-
Great job on what you have already done! This site is wonderful for support and for really tracking what you eat and calories burned. Sending you a request now, looking forward to supporting each other!! :)
-
I used C2K as well and it was awesome for me!! The app that I used was by Zen Labs and it was free. Worked great! Just keep trying to do a little more each time. Don't rush it!! And agreed, proper shoes are absolutely necessary!! Good luck! :)

You are so not alone on this! I know that I am always going to want to have some beers on the weekends, and probably some not great food. I do log everything, or as close as I can get (I can't always remember exactly how many beers/how much popcorn, etc.) I try to keep it close to my goals, but doesn't always happen. A few…
-
I do this most of the time. I will plan what I am going to eat tomorrow before I go to bed so I can see how the calories are going to come out as well as macros and adjust accordingly. Sometimes what I end up eating will change slightly, but I just make adjustments as I go. I find I do much better if I have a plan for the…

^^^ THIS! If you have one now you will have to start over some other day and go through the hell of the two weeks smoke free you've already been through! I quit 14 years ago and my dad called it "the idiot factor" I've gone two weeks, I'd be an idiot to start again now. Keep drawing out the timeline... 2 week, one month,…

I just got my FitBit One about three weeks ago and love it! As others on here said, I still use MFP for all of my food logging, let FitBit track my steps/calories burned and it will sync up with MFP. I find the calorie burn numbers to be quite accurate. You can still manually log activities that the FitBit can't really…

Feel free to add me, 44 and on here every day!

Congrats on the 16, that's awesome! Feel free to add me, I'm always up for new connections on here. The support is awesome!! :smile:

My official weigh is first thing Friday morning, and I will record that weight if there is a change, good or bad. I will sometimes weigh myself at other times in the week, but I don't record those.

Love this... I have lost 10 dozen large eggs!! :)

LA Fitness. It's ok, best thing is it's less than a mile from my house so I am more motivated to go! Also my basement when I don't get myself up to the gym. :tongue:
-
Yes!! Love this.. Also Magic by Pilot and Don't Stop Believin' and many others I can't think of right now!!
-
Pizza and beer! I have cut out beer during the week, I may have a glass of wine or two, but no beer on school nights. I do have beer on the weekends, but I work out more and "save up" some extra calories during the week for it. Seems to be working out ok so far! Pizza I haven't touched in months... but I had a dream about…
-
Congratulations, you look amazing!!!!! Happy Birthday from one Pisces to another, my birthday was yesterday!! :smile:

You all are inspiring me to try and get my butt out of bed earlier and do morning workouts! I usually go to the gym after work during in the week, but go in the morning on the weekends. I always notice a huge difference in my energy level when I get there in the morning, but so far haven't found the motivation to wake up…
-
I generally prelog so I can see how my day is going to come out and make adjustments as needed. I either do it the night before (if I am super organized!) or in the morning. Sometimes things change as the day goes on, but at least I have an idea of where I am at so I know how it is going to impact my day if I eat that…

Count me in! I am down 11 pounds since the beginning of the year, and another 20 by April 30 would put me right at my goal!! :wink:
