I have not exercised and ate terrible. Gained two pounds :( But I'm not going to let that get me down. It's a new day!

I know how frustrating it can be. I was gaining weight while training for the half marathon. I would run so many miles and my body wouldn't shed a pound. I think that after a while of doing the same thing our bodies get used to it and stop ditching the weight. I'm working on switching things up a bit. Thank you for being…

Hang in there

Thank you for the input on my questions about logging food. I am using a diet tool from another weight loss program that allows for some room for those not so great days. As far as training, I typically use one of Hal Higgdon's training schedules as a guide. You can access them here: http://www.halhigdon.com/ Since this…

I ran my half marathon this weekend. It was great....but I still managed to gain weight! And it's not muscle, I really do eat much more than I should. Anyways, since that is out of the way, I am looking forward to these challenges this week. I will do my best to get as close as possible to completing them. I was curious to…

I think I am going to have to break up the challenges as well, and write up a plan of action! I am training for a half marathon (this will be my 4th one). I run it next week, so it has been a little difficult adding the challenges to my running plan. I am doing high miles right now, and anything extra just takes it out of…

I've been doing pretty good. I slowed down my weight loss goals to 1 lb per week so that I had more to eat. I sit a lot lately doing online homework, so I get up and do a few jumping jacks and squats. That helps break it up and I'm getting some exercise. I hope to be down a few pounds by Sunday. Good work everyone, keep it…

Yes, I agree, thank you for all your work putting this together.

How does this work? Are we on the honor system to enter our own information?

With hips it's usually the "widest" part around your bottom, waist is the thinnest part (an inch or two above the belly button), and chest is usually armpit level. That is where I usually do. The MOST important part in taking measurements is to take them the same way every time. Make a note of "land marks" you used in…

I have been in need of some support and motivation. Thank you for doing this . I too can help if you need anything. I will post my starting weight/ measurements soon.
