I freeze bananas and then put them in a food processor with a few chocolate chips and maybe a sprinkle of coconut and have banana "ice cream".

The cats get Healthwise for dry food, supplimented with Tiki Cat canned food (Ahi Tuna). I think my cats eat better than I do >.<

I logged it as circuit training because of the frequent movement between cardio and strength activities.

Currently in Westerville, but looking to move to Dublin in September.

Would you be willing to share your current height/weight and eating habits? Most of the work toward becoming fit is in diet. You may be able to do a lot of weight loss just by changing the kinds of food you eat. Fruits, veggies, and sundry proteins are your friend!

Maybe try running instead of uphill walking? Humans are walkers by design and it's low-impact activity. Running works the muscles in your legs more than just walking. You might like the C25K program. I'm on week 6 day 2 tomorrow and my own woobly thighs are getting stronger.

When I went to the DMV to renew my license last July, my weight was off by 35 lbs. I had decided to be honest about my weight gain, but the lady at the counter asked if I just wanted 160 to be my goal weight instead of changing my license. That's what I did.

Done!

Normally I run indoors on a treadmill, so there's a compartment for things. If I'm outdoors, I hold my iPhone (mostly so I can switch songs on my workout playlist) and since my running clothes lack pockets, I have taken my car key off, locked the rest of my keys in the car, and then put my car key in my sports bra. Werid,…

Done!

Finally someone close to my height! Age: 25 Height: 5' 10" Weight: 192 Goal: 160

I started at Week 3, since that's where I felt I was physically. Yesterday was the infamous Week 5 Day 3 and felt invinciable afterward - I didn't think I could run the whole 20 minutes, but I made it. I'm going try fitting in a free run this evening after work (or early tomorrow morning).

I'm in. I have 4.5 more hours at work. I did 50 already and will do 25 every 30 minutes (slow work day is slow).

I started Monday on the C25K at Week 3. I didn't feel so well by the second 3 minute jog, but that was from lack of food more than anything. I'm surprisingly eager to do Day 2 today. This weekend it's supposed to be in the mid-60s (rare for winter in central Ohio), so I can do a test run at one of the local parks -…

I have too many favorite places to eat in Ohio. Back in Akron (where I grew up), I love Mustard Seed Market, Luigi's, New Era, and Swenson's (on a limited basis, mind). My fiancee is from Cincinnati, but I haven't been to too many unique restaurants down there. I love Skyline and La Rosa's. I also went to Dumesh for Indian…

I started Level 2 on Saturday. It's a beast of a program, but I really like it. Haven't seen much weight loss, but my endurance is drastically improving.

You look amazing!

I'm in Westerville/Polaris area and work just down Polaris Parkway from where I live. I'm hoping to bring my bike up from storage so I can bike down to work - there are so many bike paths. I also love being close to two Metro Parks. I'm partial to Highbanks.

5'10" Age: 25 HW: 195 CW: 192 GW: 160* Lowest adult weight was 148 as a starving graduate student. I renewed my driver's license in July. I was going to update my weight and the lady at the BMV said, "Do you want me to leave it as a goal?". Seemed perfectly reasonable to me. Presently doing a 30 Day Shred for December. I…

Last night my cat decided the push-up portion would be a good time to walk underneath me. He got a shove for that.

I'd love to do a 5k by my next birthday and the 2013 Color Run is the weekend following. Hot damn!

I started mine today (finished about 15 minutes ago). I'll have to wait until I see how I feel in the morning, but if I'm too sore I'll do some free weights and walking instead. However, most people seem to do it every day and some do go longer than 10 days. I intend to do Level 1 until I feel ready to move on - maybe 15…

If this is starting for reals for December 2012 I'm in.
