  • I think your best bet would be to go into the gym and ask for a tour. They won't take you into the locker rooms but they'll encourage you to go check them out for yourself. That way you'll know exactly how much space there is for you!
  • Nice Sweater Vest. But seriously, it means "Non-Scale Victory" like when your clothes are too big or someone says "hey, have you lost weight?"
  • I was nervous about W5D3 all week. I made a special playlist, had my wife walk the dog so I didn't have to take him, and constantly said, "I don't know if I can do this." I was psyching myself out long before I even put my shoes on. Well after my 5 minute warm up, I started and just kept focused and kept going. I ended up…
  • I've lost almost 30lbs in 4 months, had my blood pressure go from 145/95 to 118/80, lost inches off my waist, gained endurance and lung capacity, and lost my double chin doing only cardio so I choose to disagree.

  • Well, yesterday was a good day for SV and for NSV. First, I have lost a total of 25lbs which is halfway to my goal. I have done this in a little less than 4 months. Now for the NSV. Yesterday I had a Dr.'s appointment and had my blood pressure checked. Before I started my weight loss journey, it was 145/92 which is…
  • I'm a huge DMB fan but I never really got into comparing live versions with each other. I tend to try to find live versions of songs from concerts I've been to, but I don't really have too many multiple live versions of things. That being said, I do have a fair amount of DMB on my running playlist. JTR Two Step Grey Street…
  • I just finished W2D3 yesterday and throughout the first 2 weeks I have gone back and forth between "I can do this" and "what the hell did I get myself into?!?" Well, yesterday (while using the c25k Ap) I decided to run the final minute before my cool down (if there is one thing that bothers me about the program it's having…

  • I'm only on W1D3 but I was impressed with the noticible difference between the first two days. Day 1 I was gassed about halfway through, jogging fairly slow, and my walking breaks were not much more than a crawl. On day 2 (first day with my new Running shoes) I was jogging faster and more consistent, my walking breaks were…
  • I love feta! I'll have to try this
