i completed w4 day 1, again, on the outdoor track last night. i will prob do this routine one more time on wed. then move onto wk 5......

well i did w4 d2 last night....on the treadmill! i have never tried to run on the treadmill and it was not all that bad. i feel like i may repeat a day or two of week 4 so i will really have that half mile down before moving on.....

i feel the same way. i have almost been avoiding the outdoors bc i know it is harder. at the gym i know exactly how far i have gone and how much more i have to go which has been a plus up until know. the outdoor track i go to is a half mile so now that i am jogging 1/2 mile i dont really have an excuse. i never have been…

you are over half way there! week 4 day 1 complete for me. i stuggled a little bit with my legs wanting to cramp up. i think i will be going to the shoe store before long......

hey hope you made it out running this morning! i am a stress/ bored/ happy/ sad/ whatever eater. i am a pro at making an occasion out of anything just to eat :) in the last month i have had to stop that too. but whenever i am bored or stressed out, i try to pick something really healthy, and if i am not hungry enough to…

what i did when i was in that "destructive" cycle, which was just a month ago, was for one week i logged everything i ate no matter how bad it was. i did this in attempt to be honest with myself and to see what i was really putting in my body. then i just put it behind me and said today is a new day. i started trying to…

Todays weight is 203.7. Not so bad considering this weekend was a bust and Wed night was awful too. But I am getting back on track and shooting to drop 2 more pounds by next Friday! How did everyone else do? Is everybody logging on bossymommy's site? i am going to send her a message now.

AWESOME Umpire!!!! way to not give up and push through. i know you've got to feel good about accomplishing that 20 min run! i have made some progress too.... i did not do w3 d3 yesterday bc i wanted to see if i could jog a mile without stopping. i did! in 10 minutes!! this is the second time in my adult life (i'm 28) that…

hehehe... i have paranoid thoughts like that when it starts getting dark too! sounds like you managed to squeeze in exercise though. i too have 2 young children (6 mos and 2yr) and have a hard time getting that "me" time in. but yesterday i walked 2.5 miles at lunch and went to the y and jogged 1 mile and walked some more…

hey i'll join ya! i have set goals for the next 12 weeks. i like to power walk so here they are- 3 days a week do C25k (30 min) 2-3 days a week walk 1.5- 2 miles.

hi! i am glad that you are getting healthy for you and your baby. i am currently bf my 6 mo and have a 2 yr old too. i just started (well about a month ago) trying to get back into shape and so far has been easier than ever. prob bc i am bf. so i have been staying within a 1600-1800 /day calorie range (eating healthy…

Lay off the whiskey!!!! Na, just kidding. I do the same thing! What SOMETIMES works for me is to do something healthy, like get some cardio, drink a ton of water..... even if it does not totally off set your "destruct" streak, it may lessen it. Good luck and congrats on your loss. Now if I can only practice what I preach :)

WONDERFUL GIRL!!!! Keep it up!

completed week 3 day 2 last night.

Good job! I completed week 3 day 2 last night. I struggled a little bc I was jogging the indoor track at the YMCA and it was crowded. That kind of messes up my concentration.

hi i have been doing the c25k program too and would like to join in. i did week 3 day 1 last night. i have been doing some running on an indoor track as well as an outdoor gravel track. outdoors is less boring but even small inclines through me off....

week 3 day 1 complete..... a lot easier than i thought it would be. how is everyone else doing so far???

yeah! lost my first 10 pounds!! SW- 215.2 Weight today 205.0 Goal- 160

apple butter is soooo good. its best on a biscut or toast but i could see it working with pb too. hope u enjoy.

OK SO I FINISHED WEEK 2 AND AM GOING TO START WEEK 3 TODAY. I AM ANXIOUS TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS. I AM TRYING TO STAY POSITIVE THOUGH BC SO FAR I HAVE SURPRISED MYSELF. HOPE EVERYONE ELSE IS HANGING IN THERE! IF YOU HAVE ANY POINTERS FOR THE UPCOMING WEEKS, LET ME HEAR THEM.

anybody out there??? no one is posting.

i have done a vegetable/ fruit juice (only fresh juice) fast before (4 days) and lost several pounds and i felt great while doing it. i continued to seriously diet and eat healthy after the fast and a few pounds came back but i continued to loose.

so how is everyone else doing??? i am kind of excited about today's run! i have never been excited about exercise. weird.

weighed in today at 209.6 so i have lost about a half of a pound. way to go for the rest of you! i am so happy for your success. sucsess feels so good! have a wonderful weekend!

w2 d2 done! seems like this week is easier than last :)

w2 d1 complete. it is MUCH easier to run indoors. today i ran the track at a local park that is pretty flat but there are a few inclines and then add in other people to dodge..... but somehow i made it :)

thats fine w/ me- what i have been doing is weighing on monday (to keep me accountable for the weekend) and then again on friday (to keep me in check for the week). seems to be working for right now.... i dont think we need to post all that though. whatever day is fine with me though.

did w1 d2 yesterday. last few jogging laps were difficult. i tried to remember next week they will last even longer. but you get to walk longer in between jogs too. hope everyone is having a great week!

kidakiwi, hey! so are you going to repeat week 1 or start on week2?
