@Carolina, welcome! Congrats on your success so far, and great plan for packing your own food! @Amy, welcome as well! Feel free to add me :bigsmile: @Tru, 8K went all right, but as you know, hairy nosed guy made it interesting... :noway: So sad about your tomatoes! I seriously love tomatoes from the garden (not that I…

I've got a 4 year old and a 9 year old. It took some work, but they got used to me working out. They know mostly now that they aren't supposed to get in the way, but they can sit in the room and watch as I'm doing zumba or yoga. My younger kiddo was 3 when I started exercising, and I never go to a gym, so he's had to…

It's great not having heartburn! I have not had heartburn in months, and I'm so happy about that! Congrats and keep up the good work :drinker:

@Jane, oh the joy of dental work. I know that one since I recently had a filling almost the size of half a tooth put in. Ouch! On both my mouth and wallet... How did your low calorie day go? I'm doing one today. That fair food the other day messed me up enough that I feel a need for it. @Ron! Exercising!??! Shame on you,…

Talk to you spouse. Don't assume they have mind reading powers.

Oh my! I really LOL'd at this! I have a 9 year old son who does this, and I feel the exact same way!

MapMyRun, free, it does give you the splits at each mile on the free version.

Bump to find later

Add BBQ sauce and throw on a roll with some onions. Or add to a soup. Or put some taco seasoning on and make a chicken taco.

I've got a lot. Like, 20, I think. But I double up because I'm really busty and too cheap to spend money on good bras. And since I'm losing weight, I'm not going to be using them a long time. I've already shrunk a band size or more.

@Ron, yep, I have heard the Peter Capaldi news. Should be interesting. Seeing all sorts of meme's from when he was on in the Pompeii episode. As far as castor oil goes, I'm thinking I'll avoid that one unless desperate. LOL And yes, I can see I need to run more. Been using castor oil? Is that your trick? :wink: @Subzero,…

That fact that I got out of breath from tying my shoes. Thank goodness I'm at a point that it's not a problem anymore, but I am nowhere near done!

Create your own, or there's a zumba option in the normal exercise list now.

Family in on it is great! I was doing situps this morning, and my 4 year old son was being my cheerleader. So cute! He'd hear me say what number I was on, then would say "Yay! 37!".

Summer... thread deserted.... Anyway! Hi y'all :bigsmile: SIL is visiting this week, have fun hanging out with her. Tomorrow going to the the county fair and likely to eat horrible food. Horrible TASTY food! Also, she's about to come pick me up, heading out to a natural oils as medicine class this evening, so I'll catch up…

Thanks for all the input! I currently run about 3 times a week, sometimes 4. Normally goes something like 1.5 miles, 3-4 miles, and then 5+ miles. On the shorter runs my pace is close to 11 minutes, but on longer runs it goes up to 14:30ish. For my longest runs I've been out more than 90 minutes. I'm a slowpoke, but that…

In 3 months I want to be at the weight currently stated on my drivers license (it's also when I need to renew!). In a year, I want to be at my goal weight, and ready to run a half marathon (or have already done one).
