A prayer for you and your dear Mom. O God, who hast commanded us to honor our father and our mother; in Thy mercy have pity on the soul of my mother, and forgive her her trespasses; and make me to see her again in the joy of everlasting brightness. Through Christ our Lord Amen You can do this. You will live a healthy long…

I hated coffee most of my young 51yrs. But something happened at 45yrs. I had to get glasses for the first time and I tried coffee Jamcianme Crazy (from Tampa by Joffery) Now I am a 2 cup a day and have no plans to quit unless the cost go up up up!!! I refuse to pay $10 for a pound. Anyone notice how the unit wt has gone…

Bump! No worries.

Beautiful. WTG!

Really? How is this possible 3000 to 4000 calories a day? How many minutes do you run a day? Respectfully I do not understand this.

Thanks Dawn. Yes I had an echo done at the hospital. After all the testing it was diagnosis of enlarge heart from endurance cardio. I was very ill in May and spent several nights in hospital from of all things Mono. Married 28yrs and I get mono. hahaha. It was the worst. They did a lot of test because they had no idea what…

Thanks I was thinking the same. But my GP did not advice a Cardiologist.

Well said. It is a journey and you are growing in love of self. good for you. :flowerforyou:

Great job on hitting your goal. Love who you are with what you have. If you had size D your back would hurt and men would only have conversations with your chest. :laugh: Really

Congratulations you are doing really well in your training. I would say you need to go to one of the fitness shoe store that actually have the treadmill and they watch you run. I say it is the shoes. Great job on your weight loss too. WTG :drinker:

I say over 65 yrs or need to loose more than 99lb you can count house work. Otherwise get out the bike or run. Just sayin. :bigsmile:

Awesome job. You look beautiful.

I with you. I am running a HM in Dec but due to cost of most of the races it is just not worth it. I can do a 5 k and 10k without the race number and still plan to run. Most of my runs are 5k and one or 2 10k a week. No t-shirt but I am still getting it done.

Good for you! 20lbs that is awesome. You are more ready than you think. Go with the attitude to have fun! You are more prepared and now it is get your head right. For me I celebrate you but I do not like mud on me so I am staying on as a road runner. Enjoy.

WOW! Thank God for your injury that sidelined you. Things happen for a reason....true. Good luck to you. :flowerforyou:

I do not understand but totally agree after an hour our bodies simply slow even when the heart monitor is showing the workout. Plus look at the food you are eating. Is it more process? The sodium and sugar need to watch. You look great. Throw your scale out. You are healthy and in a good weight zone. Run for the fun and…

Very happy for you. Worth all the work to keep up with your little one. :drinker: cheers. Patsy

Yes remember mfp is a tool for you. Most folks will never know your gain or loss unless you have them as a friend . If they are here with you on MFP then they too go up and down. I weigh my self every day and record only on Monday. Women just yoyo. You got this. Stay the course. Patsy

OK I have a killer for you. http://www.bodyrock.tv/2010/11/19/550-rep-fat-massacre/ Brutal but will get you ready in3 weeks!!! Have fun :bigsmile: Patsy

Grilled with Tony Catchers Seasoning. Yum.

Hi I buy my running shoes a 1/2 size larger than my regular shoes. I keep my toenails trimmed short. My feet swell a bit and having my shoe 1/2 size larger has helped with blisters and toenails. Enjoy your run. patsy

Hi I grew up in S Tampa and now live in Lutz. N Tampa. Leo Gym has been open since the 1970's on Manhattan. Great area to workout lots of places to run. Enjoy. You can add me if you like.

You look amazing. WTG

Congratulations! You have done well. Grab a friend or cousin and find a challenge to do. Do a 10k or some other challenge. Christmas is only a little over 100 days from today. Set a goal and post it and shout it tell everyone and you will control this. You got this.

Miranda Lambert love country.:love:

Great story and good run!

I work from home and I get this. I now make sure I have healthy snacks only. I include dark chocolate as healthy. I buy the dove and keep in bottom draw of fridge. Hot air popcorn. Fruit. But when I am not working and have me time I am sure to have a plan to keep busy. Clean the house,mow the yard, wash the dog. Home is so…
