  • I've been bouncing back and forth the same 3-4 pounds, so I upped my calories some (I know it'll be slower weight loss, but less likely to binge), have been tracking exercise and pedometer. I'm trying to work out 3-4 times a week. I had to put my scale away because it was just stressing me out. Do you all take…
  • I graduated in May with a double major in Psychology and Non-Profit Management , and a minor in Spanish. Now, I'm working on my M.Ed. in Counseling-Student Affairs. This program is 12 credit hours a semester, plus a 20+ hour a week assistantship. It's a bit tough, but I love how applicable it is. I control snacking by just…
  • SoonerVet, that's a good idea. So often I just use my weekends to stay in my apartment. I have to be careful with any at home video that involves any kind of jumping...I live in a second story apartment....But I do have a few DVDs I'm trying to utilize.
  • I'm 5'8, 23. Currently 175, looking to lose 40 lbs (it works for my frame, I used to be that small). Maybe not a perfect match, but always looking for friends/encouragement/people to encourage.
  • 13inchestogo....Looks like you're the closest to me if you want to be "twins" and encourage either other! Height: 5'8" Age: 23 HW: 196 (in May 2012) LW: 128 (Firsty day of undergrad) CW: 177 Goal: 135 ideally
  • halhigdon.com is a good site. They have training suggestions for beginner, intermediate, and advanced runners for different race levels (5k and up). My ex was a cross country and track coach....he used this site and always had me use it as well when I was looking for training suggestions. Also, if you have time/knowledge,…
  • Hey! I just graduated with my BA in Psychology/Youth and Non-Profit Leadership. I live in an area where fried food is the answer, and struggled with depression a lot in undergrad. I went from 128 all the way up to 198!..I've lost about 10 pounds now, and am hoping to lose more as I move across the country to a different…
  • Oi..So I went on the closest things to hill today...and just about died...I need to start doing that route more so I can build up! Distance: 9.63 Time: 41:06 Avg Speed: 14.1 Max Speed: 29.6 Calories: 558 Overall Good workout!
  • Do you have a partner yet? We have very similar goals!
  • Since I'm just now getting back into riding, I've had quite a few small purchases, and I'm making my "wish list" of some bigger things I want. I bought an under-saddle bag for keys and cell phone, a kick stand (I got so tired of my bike falling over while I put the rack back on my car), a bike rack for my car, and then my…
  • I had an awesome ride today! My church met up for a "short bike ride" followed by a grill out. The choices were 10.1 or 15.1....well I opted to push myself and do the 15.1, even though I hadn't gone more than 8 miles, since we had 2 hours to do it. There were only four of us on the longer loop. We stuck to some of the…
  • TheBinYin- Thanks for sharing about the android apps...I have been using MapMyWalk, but setting it to cycling...I've now downloaded endomondo because it looks like a much better app!
  • So I'm new...I'll go post an intro soon. I've been injured, haven't really biked since December until this week, so trying to get back in slowly. I went 7.29miles, about 32 minutes, burned approx 320 calories. I was on a road bike. Mostly flat, minimal hills, just because that's what we have around here!
  • I'm about to move to Flagstaff
  • Good luck getting to your goal! Sounds like you aren't too far off! Moderate calorie counting, and then just keeping up your exercise. Have you tried interval running or HIIT?
  • Hey all! I'm about to go to Northern Arizona University, starting in July for my master's and working for residence life! I just graduated from Murray State University in KY. Big difference in the lifestyles and the emphasis of health...Hoping the change of pace will help with the weight loss!
