(keeping in mind I am trying to lose the last 10lbs which hasn't come off in over a year no matter what I try!)

I have just started training for a 1/2 marathon.....I have worked out 4-6 days a week, only go over my calorie goals on a Saturday and I have stayed the same and only flucuated 2lbs up and down. I am not sure what to tell you......throw away the damned scale, it just messes with your mind!

I did a couch to 5km last year....now I run an average 5-10km 3 times a week....you can do it...I am an ex smoker.....it didn't help me lose alot of weight, but I gained a lot of friends doing it and I can leave from my front door and run! Free of charge!

I have the same problem.....I do well from Jan - Sept, but then I seem to fall off the wagon and gain 10-15lbs back and have to start over. I am the only one out of 4 in my house that works out and watches what I eat......it is hard to stay motivated and work hard when the people around you don't. That being said, nothing…

I am in! I have lost all momentum! I need the support to keep me on track.....a group to reply to always helps!

Tell him YOU don't feel fine, don't like the way your body feels....ect.....then challange him to join you and getting active and being healthy....make it challanging for him?? My husband is a couch potatoe, who is in the midst of quitting smoking and he eats a large bag of chips every night......I feel your pain when you…

My Shoes!! I spend hours and hours a day in them! Invest is great running shoes!! They will be your best investment!!

you ARE correct! The advice and support can come from all sorts of places(tonnes from strangers on the internet)......my strategy is to surround myself with people who like to do the same things as me, so that way the criticism is lower....lol.

skip the protein and get it in your foods, buy only seasonal veggies and fruits. You can skip the popcorn ( I recently just gave up a major popcorn addiction) it is not good for you, bad for your digestive system and you can find a more filling option with less calories.

down 30lbs is awesome! I am also new to the site. I find it addicting so far. lol I am going to track for a week and see how it goes, I am usually a weight watchers gal, but I need to change it up to lose the last 10lbs, so I am trying something new. Good luck!

be strong! but you have to understand that life happens! Stick to veggies and chicken, lots of water and chew gum or a mint right away, don't go back for second or third helpings and skip desert......take an extra long walk today....do something to burn the extra calories

If you ever wonder if your shoes need replaced, go to the store and try on a new pair. It will give you a good indication of how worn down your current shoes are. Also in situations with foot pain, there could be a neck adjustment needed....last year when I started running I had foot problems. A small adustment to C2 and I…

I loved ww until I also plateued....even with the new program. I am trying to cut carbs to see if that helps....although I have been doing that on ww also.......I think my problem is beer, lol. I am trying to stick to 1200 cal a day, with lots of protein and veggies......hopefully this will do that trick to lose the last…
