Just got back in from my jog/ walk. Holy cow! I am not used to exercising this time of day! The humidity at this time of day made me feel like my throat was on fire! :cry: However, I got another 4 miles in. 9-1: 2 miles walk/ jog + 4 mile walk/ jog (6 miles for the day)

I am in again this month! Must say that I LOVE this challenge. It has kept me highly motivated through the past couple of months! Welcome back everyone, and welcome to the new ones. My goal for this month is 100 miles- walking, jogging, and biking. Already got a start this morning, but plan on going out and jogging after…

Woo hoo!!!! Next month I am not gonna separate walking/ jogging and biking... Gonna be lazy and lump it all together. Dinos, I don't know how you can keep track of everyone! I have a hard enough time tracking my own stuff. :embarassed: 8-1: 6 mi walk/ jog 8-3: 6 mi walk/ jog 8-4: 2 mi bike 8-6: 6 mi walk/ jog 8-8: 6 mi…

When you are on your home page, go into the goals tab and fill that out. It should help you determine the amount of calories you should be eating a day to lose the amount of weight you want to lose in a week (1-2 pounds, or maintenance). The calories that it suggests will already be at a deficit, so if you exercise, I…

Only 2 miles left... And I could have gotten that in this morning :grumble: but I was already pushing myself to just get up and do my C25K workout. Didn't realize that 2 hours of overtime a day could get you that tired so fast :noway:. But the month is not over yet and I have plenty of time to make up my 2 miles and then…

Fun???? What's fun? I think I work too much :grumble:. When I do have time, I like to read and listen to music. Luckily I can listen to music at the full time job :wink:

Sorry I have been MIA the past few days. Have mandatory overtime at the full time job and had to work the part time job this weekend. However, since the last time I updated I have moved 7 miles. Only 6 miles away from the overall goal :drinker: , but thinking I am not gonna hit the biking goal :grumble: . 8-1: 6 mi walk/…

I know that they say that a healthy BMI for my height (5'2") is 101 to 136, the last time I remember being in that range was when I was in 8th grade (131). Even in the "obese" category right now at 175, I think that I look better than I have in a long time. And I am healthier than I have been in a long time- and only…

I have been completely slacking on my biking... :grumble: That being said- I got out and rode a little today, and then walked when I felt like my seat couldn't take any more biking. :tongue: And it seems that I have 1 more mile to reach my walking/ jogging goal! Had I known that I may have added another mile on to my walk…

Great job!

I am on week 7 and am learning to love running. I have been more inclined to dislike it- even in high school. I just never saw myself as a runner. Like you, I had problems completing the first week- but I made it a pride issue and would not let it beat me or make me quit. Now, I am up to running 25 minutes. I run slower…

Set goals, challenge yourself. Don't be too hard on yourself if you don't accomplish set goals, just try again. Treat yourself when you reach a goal. Find healthier alternatives to the junk foods you are craving. Take a long look in the mirror and see the difference in your body. These are things that I do and that help…

Have to go in to work early this morning. Knew that I wouldn't be able to walk/jog my usual 6 miles this morning so walked 4 last night, and jogged/walked 2 this morning. Hopefully tonight I will be able to get on the bike and get some more biking miles logged! 8-1: 6 mi walk/jog 8-3: 6 mi walk/jog 8-4: 2 mi bike 8-6: 7 mi…

Couldn't get walk/jog in this morning due to thunder and lightning. Tried tonight and just wasn't feeling it. Plus, strapped for time because of training. So, up early tomorrow (weather permitting) to try to get back on track. Need to get more biking in :grumble: 8-1: 6 mi walk/jog 8-3: 6 mi walk/jog 8-4: 2 mi bike 8-6: 7…

It really depends on what you like to do. I used to use drawing and music as a stress relief. There is also exercise. For every negative thought you have, try to think of 3 good ones. Sounds corny but it works.

I add ground turkey to spanish rice- takes it from a side dish to more of a meal. Bump for later!

I am really excited! I have been doing C25K, and accomplished week 6 day 3 (22 minute jog- no walking) on my first go round!!

I don't have kids of my own... I am a step mom and we have him every other weekend. My issue is I work at my part time job when we have him. I have started getting up at 4:45 twice during the week before the full time job to do couch to 5 K and at 3:45 on Sundays to do it before I go to work. I am trying to get up early 3…

Don't watch many of his movies because I find books are always better and the movies tend to freak me out a little more (strange I know). Love the Dark Tower Series, Insomnia, and the Stand. Didn't care for From a Buick 8 tho.
