Sounds great! I could always use some supportive MFP friends! :)

I think the whole point of the program is to help people build on their running abilities, specifically to run 5k-- so I would say do whatever you need to do to get to that point! The program is a training guide so use it in anyway that makes you comfortable. I haven't repeated whole weeks but there are some weeks where I…

way to go! Very motivational!
-
The V raises are also my hardest move. Those things suck! Luckily tomorrow will be my last day on level 2! I have read several times that people prefer level 3 over level 2.. not sure why that is, or if it's true. I suppose I will find out in a few days!
-
First of all, good for you for taking the first step! Getting started, being aware and wanting to make healthy choices is the hardest part. I read several of the responses and it looks like you've already got some great advice and a good place to start. I don't know if someone has already mentioned this, so I'm sorry if…

You are such an inspiration! Well done!
-
I finished level 2 day 5 today.. so half way done! I agree with everyone about level 2.. it sucks! And Natalie is totally a cheater! :) I've also been doing C25k a few days a week in addition to 30DS. Tonight my shins and legs in general are feeling especially sore so tomorrow may be a rest day for me.. we'll see! It's…
-
today wasn't day 1 for me but I love reading about everyone's progress. Way to go! You're off to a great start! :)
-
I've also already started the program. I just finished day 14 (level 2 day 4) today. It's definitely a great workout! It's tough, but you can feel it working- and that's a great feeling. I decided to track my progress every 10 days (after each level) so hopefully I'll see some great results from day 1 to day 30. Also, I…

I'm late in joining this group but I could always use the motivation. :) I just finished day 14 (level 2 day 4) today. It's great to see everyone on here supporting each other! Keep it up!
-
This sounds like a great idea! I'm already in the middle of the program but I'd still love the motivation, and I'd be happy to support everyone as well. I've been looking for a consistent thread/group that stays in touch throughout the process but haven't found one yet, so this would be great! It is tough, but the good…

I know what you mean! Way to go!
-
yay 20's! :) I'm 23! I could always use more motivation!
-
I've been there! I lived in various 3rd floor apartments in college for 3 years. It also didn't help that I'm a night owl so I liked to exercise at night. After the neighbors beat on the ceiling once or twice I had to stop that. haha So first of all my advice would be to do it during the day, and it couldn't hurt to give…
-
I'm in the same boat! It seems like a lot of my friends are not active anymore and I can definitely use all the motivation and support I can get! So feel free to add me as well :)

I'm in the same boat! I've been back at it for a while but it seems a lot of my friends are not active anymore. I can definitely use all the motivation and support I can get! So feel free to add me as well :)

Finished level 1 day 5 today. My legs are still pretty sore but I'm still enjoying the workouts. So on to day 6 tomorrow! How's everyone doing??
-
I finished level 1 day 3 tonight.. so far so good! The first day was a little overwhelming- had to stop twice for a breather but I finished the work out. I was sore the next day but not so sore that I couldn't complete day 2. However, after day 2 I was reeeally sore so I had a rest day yesterday and just went on a walk.…
-
This has definitely inspired me! I've been looking for the right activity to jump start my exercise routine again. I will definitely have to try this.. and I'm sure I'll need all the motivational pals I can get! :) Everyone that's posted results so far, you've done amazing- keep it up!
-
Meag- thank you for the advice. That is a really good point that I need to keep in mind. I'm hoping to get in that mindset and stay there. Good luck at the Doctor.. I hope everything turns out ok! I'll be thinking about you! Have a good short week, everyone!
-
Hey, all! I know we're already a few days into this month but I'm gonna try to catch up. My August goals were mainly just to try and establish a schedule again... honestly, it's taking a lot longer than I ever imagined. It's frustrating to several degrees because I KNOW it's possible (I've done it before!) it just seems to…
-
ccsunlight- you're totally right- you CAN do it! I know what you mean about stress eating, etc but that was some great advice from mkingraham about replacing it with another habit. Keep up the good work! mkingraham- that does sound like a great workout! That sounds similar to the bootcamp I was doing a couple months ago--…
-
Just checking in really quick! I'll catch up more later. Thank you all so much for the encouragement and well wishes! I just got back from vacation with my family-- so the whole routine thing is still taking some work. I did however bring my own snacks and water pitcher, etc so I wasn't tempted too much. My grandma has a…

hello, wonderful twenty-somethings! Well, I'M BACK! I've been MIA for the past month or 2 mostly due to getting married and all of the wedding craziness that comes with it. Needless to say, I've been wayyy slacking but I'm ready to get back on the horse. I finally have some more time on my hands now and no more pre-wedding…
-
thanks for the positive advice, everyone! I get to move in tomorrow!! woo! And yet it's 4am here and I'm still awake because I slept all day. Not my best idea. Cait- yeahhh the wedding is super close! 23 days...ahhh! So obviously I'm losing my mind on top of everything else. I can't wait to have a kitchen and you know... a…

Wow. it's been way too long! Glad to see everyone's doing well! meag- there is NO shame in some BSB lovin! :smile: I love them! shannon- I know EXACTLY how you feel! Only I'm not losing inches either. :ohwell: Plateaus suck. Keep going though and stay positive! There's lots of support here! leela- what is this Gryffindor…
-
Well, my progress seems to have come to a hault. Probably due to my messed up schedule.. and too many times grabbing the easiest thing to eat at the moment. I'm in serious crunch time with the wedding (40 days away) and now it's exam time at school. I hate that my schedule isn't guaranteed to be in my control or the same…
-
Hello everyone! Well even in spite of my attempts not to go MIA on here.. I let it slip for the last week. Things are getting absolutely crazy around here! Last weekend was my bridal shower and Easter.. and lots of family time. Now I'm back at school and exams are starting up- I've already had 2 this week. It's been very…
-
Thanks for all of the suggestions! I actually did not get a migraine last night for the first time! woo! jenn- I will have to look into that! I HATE getting migraines... it controls my life once I feel one coming on. I can't do anything but lay in the bed! shannon-the carbs/blood sugar thing very well may have been the…
-
So quick question- I've been having a problem with headaches/migraines the days I go to bootcamp. And the headaches don't usually start until a few hours after. But it never fails. I've been having problems with migraines anyway- maybe once or twice a month but I got medication for it. I know this could be a number of…
