I'm currently doing C25K on Tues-Thurs-Sat, but I'll probably switch to M-W-F next week. I do some sort of stretching (yoga, pilates, etc.) on my C25K days, and I do strength training and Zumba on my days off. I try to take Saturday and Sunday off.

I'm planning on signing up for a 5k that my gym hosts in September, as motivation to stick it out. I downloaded "Get Running" on my iPhone, and I'll be doing week 1, day 2…

Like everyone else said, it depends on what works for you. I've tried working out to DVDs and taking walks close to my house, but ultimately it doesn't benefit me nearly as much as the gym membership I got a few months ago. I haven't been working this month, and just getting out somewhere everyday makes me feel so much…

Hi! I've been vegetarian for ages, and these are some of the staples in my house currently: Kung Pao Vegetables - http://fatfreevegan.com/blog/2011/10/27/kung-pao-vegetables/ New Orleans' Style White Beans - last night I had this served over rice with asparagus on the side, and it was delicious! The recipe calls for a…

This sounds so delicious!

Oh my goodness, you look incredible! This is so inspiring - I'm also 23 and I hope someday (soon!) I look as good as you. :)

Yummm. Thanks for the recipe!
