5am every work day. It sucked at first but I made myself do something, even 15 minutes. 12 weeks later I look forward to my time in the morning and regularly wake before my alarm. The best part is that I feel great all day long. The thought of working out and then trying to sleep seems like wasting a good buzz

I have a hard time losing weight if I eat too many processed carbs or sugar regardless of the calories. I try to limit breads and pastas, avoid sugar and make sure I get plenty of protein. Fat for me is pretty neutral other than calories. That being said, calories are still the central point and everything I consume is…

Inspiring and amazing. Bravo!!

The scale bounces like an evil tease. Inches are more positive. That being said, it's the scale that I check every day

I have a similar job. I workout in the early AM because its the only time I control everyday. It sucks a lot in the beginning but after about two weeks, it does get easier and after 11 weeks, I actually look forward to getting up early. I don't know if I'd have any success without the consistency. Also, keep work…

Creepy is as creepy does. I used to have bouts of obsessing about unrequited affection and while I am 99% sweet, it becomes a dark place in your mind. I stopped because it even creeped my out.

I brush my teeth. Puts cravings down most times

I have had an elliptical for years and still think it is the best inside cardio machine. That being said, it is a machine and you have to be very careful about making sure it is ergonomically set up for you. I have one that is adjustable and I can vary the stride length and resistance during my workout. With my weight too…

I am trying very deligently to eat in a sustainable manner. This is a diet only in the aspect that I am cutting a measured number of calories from my daily intake to help cut weight. My only rule is that I log everything that goes into my body, but my goal is to eat sensibly with the mindset to develop healthy habits which…

Logging on each day is the most important part for me.

My use of C25K is just as an interval training device and not intended to get me ready for road work. I "run" by about doubling my "walking" speed on the elipitcal. Doing 3k on the eliptical at a "walking" speed isn't much different than walking 3k... I really enjoy the quick results I get through interval training and the…

I'm doing it. I use the program for interval training while on the elliptical. I did it on my own a couples years ago with great results. The intervals keep me focused and entertained. I'm only in week one but it has already fun and energizing. I have no interest in actually running on the road for several reasons. Good…

Sweet and blonde. What's not to enjoy?

I don't even like I've in my water. Pure clean Luke warm. YUMMY

Taking it from the back is the best way. Keeps the roll looking clean. From the front is just sloppy

If I keep my sugar (simply sugars) low at lunch and drink enough water, I am able to avoid most of the 3:30 crash. I have been paying attention to how my afternoon goes versus my lunch choices and I found some pretty consistent impact. First thing I cut out was Chinese food for lunch which guarantees a bad afternoon.

I found that diet sodas and artificially sweetened drinks make me feel weird and not all are quite as bad. Diet colas are the best for me while diet root-beer and diet iced teas are the worst. At the worst, they consistently trigger binge consumption and I can easily drink a two-liter bottle of diet soda in less than an…

Thank you !!!

My wife eats a 2lb salad 6 days a week. She has been super successful at keeping herself lean and the big salad is a key piece

Got to count it...part of the reward for exercising and being able to drink and keep my calories below my target it a strong motivator. Besides my body counts it of I put it in my mouth. The good, bad and ugly all become part of me whether I "count" or not.
-
Nice response. I agree entirely. At the end for me, I just feel better when I stopped drinking soda. I found early on that some effected me worse than others. Diet cola was the less offensive with diet ice teas the worst. I found the worst really increased my cravings; or rather increased my ability and tolerance to binge…

Water. I must be one of the few but room temperature water is my favorite.

You can add me. I'm always up for extra friends

Thanks for the well-wishes

Thanks for the welcome

It shows where you stand for the day whichs makes picking a meal something different. I think I often feel like I've blown a day and then stop trying until tomorrow. Immediately I see a difference in my relationship to my food choices. Today I logged exercise and it's so interesting to see how it raises my nutrition…
