Myree I think it depends on your goals and your frame. I am 5'11 and I am about 153 right now and I need to loose about another 5 lbs to be at my goal weight. I am small framed. My wrists are only about 6 inches around. My calorie goal is 1320. Food is the most important variable in the equation to weight loss. I think…

Margaret here. I am looking for a challenge to stay motivated. Goal is to see my abs emerge from the fat:-). I run and strength train....I work out at 5am central so I hope my boss gets up early. Generally workout 5 to 6 days a week. I am working on upping my mileage..,about 12-17 a week. I weigh 153.9 and 5'11". I have…

Wow 40th milestone....Happy Birthday. How did the weigh in go? How are you feeling about it this week?

Disclaimer...I am a plant breeder in a company that does GMO and traditional breeding. I am really excited that this discussion doesn't seem to be fearmongering but really an interesting debate. I do have to say that GMO are the most studied phenomena in the history and in those studies there is not evidence of effect on…

Completely agree. I have two bags with not much in them any longer. I may have to save up to change the situation.

Jenny, I am still checking in just haven't seen anyone else posting so I have been quiet. Yes I am still running. I am up to between 25 and 30 miles a week. My learning yesterday was that I need to increase mileage to be more competitive in the 5k....having a hard time finding time to run and strength train with the…

Carrie....welcome to the group and congratulation on your progress so far. We are a little light in member this summer but glad to have another. Alcohol is creeping back on me also. I had a beautiful dark beer last night and the night before....uggghh....

Jenny, it is so motivating to hear you speak about some of the same issues as I am facing. It seems my old habits are creeping into my new habits. i had a bacon cheese egg burrito this morning.....no telling how many calories that thing had. I am stuck at 154, I believe I am going to have to work harder on calorie intake…

great challenge. I am a little out of sorts from upping my mileage the last couple of weeks. Yoga would be good for me. Thanks! BTW...I hope you are doing well.
-
Day late and hopefully not a dollar short. 154.1

I navigate through those issues also. I have not always been successful at it. During those times a glass of wine seems more interesting than a walk around the block. But I have found that the walk around the block makes a better me for my family. I love Jenny's advice..be kind to yourself. Spend some time taking a break…

Jenny is right on. Give yourself a break. For me I have to have something I am working towards. I have started doing 5k for that reason and snow skiing in the late summer and fall gets me to get up every morning and go. Finally, being responsible for someone else's' fitness. That's not quit right but if I am meeting a…

Thanks both of you for the protein ideas. I am going to try some different sources with less fat. My proud moment this week is I jogged/ran 6 miles today. First time every I have run straight for over an hour. I won second in a two mile race on Saturday. And I am working on upping my total mileage for the week. This week I…
