Yes! Just what I need. Starting WT 190 lbs this morning. Not happy about this at all. I was at 179 just 6 weeks ago grrrr. To much hot summer cold drinks and not enough outside jog/running but with a heat index of 112 degree here in the Tampa Bay area just did not have it in me. Even the nights are hot. So September is a…

WOW great job!! You look like an apple to me. Weight lifting really made a great difference for you. :drinker:

Beautiful. You look really happy and healthy good job!

Yes bump <> need this too. :wink:

Kathe, You are in a very difficult place right know for all the right reasons. You learned to be a caregiver by watching your mom care for others. I learned also from watching my mom care for others and I was the caregiver for my Father n law when he had late stage lung cancer. Please add me as a friend. It would be nice…

I often ran in the country lots of miles of nothing but dirt roads and crops. Even got crop dusted by a small plane. I had 2 rotties come from know where. I stopped slowly moved my hands and shot both with pepper spray. Works great. Now I run in the city country so I am well protected for the 2 legged dogs. Have fun be…

Yep first thing in the morning right after the first trip to restroom. But it is not about the scale. It is about fitness. You may not continue to drop the weight and may begin to gain!! If it is muscle and strength then the scale is only a tool. NSV Non Scale Victory is so important. First race you finish without walking.…

Yes I live in Hot Hot Hot Florida. You may benefit from this you tube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaE7Q1fmzAo Great work out for runners looking to recover from injury or just to rest the joints but it is a great burn. Patsy

Well done!! Stay focus and never forget it is for your health. Stay strong. :drinker:

Sean, I love running at night. Back in the day of shift work I would run when I got off between midnight and ???. I agree with Carson have fun. Since you are running in your neighborhood. Share with some of the neighbors you will be out running after midnight. Know the neighbors with dogs. If they are hostile to runners…

So true. But they are worth the time. Haaha Enjoy.

WOW Thanks for the tip. I was going to start low carb today. I guess I will need to research more for a good diet plan. My DH is Type2 so maybe the diabetes diet will work for me.

Thanks. Just have to dodge the thunderstorms.

Oh and what are you eating during training? Low carbs? Clean?

Pinterest.com and check out outdoor. So many foil over flame ideas. YUM! :smile:

FANTASTIC!!!! Keep doing what you have been and be here next year.

Hi, My DH is Type2 and yes it sucks. Focus like your life depends on it. Because your quality of life certainly does. Your health will affect everyone you love. I know I am the spouse. Your PRE diabetes will become full blown diabetes with any major stress you fall under. Work, divorce, car accident, loved one death.…

Sure let's do it. :drinker:

Congratulations on your weight loss. Living longer and happier is a Blessing. Gravity catches us all. I use undergarments called SPANX can purchase on line or at Sears and JCP . JCP is my favourite because they usually hire women knowledgeable in this area. I also use http://faceliftingcreams.com/ products affordable and…

Candi, You do have options. You say you can not go to work. You have 2 kids under 4. You need to go to work. I am sure there are Govt programs for a single mom of 2 to get back to work or school. You say you are in a hostile environment with a man who will not follow his doctors treatment. You are responsible for placing…

<>BUMP WTG!! :drinker:

BUMP also XT so you do not injure your feet or legs. Congratulations. May you run for many many years.

Hello friends, Did ok on my May resolutions. Finished my first 15k on my way to my first half in the Fall. Did pretty good with not eating after 830p but it is hard with the family. June resolution is to walk/jog 25 mi a week or more depends on weather. No thunderstorm training :noway: Deep water jogging XT and work my…

You Rock!! My most recent NSV was having my 19yr old son ask me to run the Zombie 5k with him this November. Passing on a love for health being our first wealth and him getting it. Priceless. <bump> Patsy
