HA - I Should have read the replys before I posted - I see Allen Carr's book has helped a lot of us :) Yay!

I stopped smoking over 6 years ago, all because of a book called the easy way to stop smoking by allen carr. I know it sounds crazy but it worked so well for me. I had tried so many things and suffered through periods of not smoking but always returned to it. This book let's you smoke while you read it and you quit on the…

Right there with all of you. Restarting at my highest weight ever - 226. I'm not getting on the scale for 6 months and am trying to focus on getting myself healthy and strong both physically and emotionally. Would love the support (and to help support you). Anyone feel free to add me!

Wow, wow, wow - that's about all I can say. I so appreciate and am humbled by the wonderful responses you all sent. I truly felt uplifted by them all and that was a feeling that I know I was looking for. Thank you! I'm going to spend some time reading them and figuring out what will work best. Feeling much more motivated…

Hey all - Looks like I am staying the same as last week. Congrats to all who lost weight this last week! My goal for the next week is to snack on veggies instead of...well, you know...the bad stuff I usually snack on. I've started using the site ichange this past week and I like it so far. It's a paid site, but you get one…

I lost two pounds last week! Have to run, but I'll post more later.
-
Okay check in! I'm down the two pounds I gained last week so that is great. I also was very successful in cutting out the negative self talk although I must say it wasn't a bad week for it :). I love the topic this week. Ways that I have changed. Well, I started running to try to get healthier and I always considered…

Hey all - should I start a new topic or should we just keep using this one? Loved Mary's topic. I'm weighing in now with BAD news. I gained 2 lbs...I'm hoping that is just because I weighed in at different times of the day, but it's probably because of the bad start. Hope you all did better. I did manage to log all my food…

Hey Cathy - I think it is awesome that this is the first time you've gone over your calorie goal. Don't get down about it - when I read that it shows me how committed you are and have been. Do you keep in touch with your former foster kids? I started off rough this week, but turned it around :) and am feeling much more…

Hey everyone, Just a mini update. I had a rough start to this week but I'm determined to turn it around. I wanted to share a song that really helps get me through the toughest part of my runs. It's a good song for those "I'm about to give up" moments. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kn6-c223DUU Does anyone else have…

Wow Cathy - congrats on the loss - sounds like you are doing excellent! I'll have to weigh myself in tonight. That will pretty much be my starting weight since I haven't been losing anything for a long time :) My goal for this week is the same as Mary's - I am going to work on logging in every day and logging everything I…

Hi ChewysMom - I think we can kind of make the rules as we go with this one. At a minimum let's weigh in on Monday's. I'll create a new topic tomorrow and we can use that for any conversations we have. I have a few ideas to start the group off and give it a little structure, but everyone is welcome to suggest things.
-
Wow - that sounds crazy hard. Hope you can at least play around with the font size - I remember doing that in college to get around length issues. Good luck with getting that done.
-
Be as crabby as you want. It will make things interesting. Make sure to let us know how the P90X goes - I've always wondered. What is the paper for?
-
:) Banjo is adorable! So glad you are in!
-
Yay - we are full! I'll start a new topic tomorrow and let everyone know where to find it. I'm going to leave this topic open so that other people can post here if they are looking to form small group. Group members are: mbrotnitsky cv0409 emmaleigh47 chewysmommy katimari love2run maricari Here is to our successfully…

Hi Leah - You are in! Love the pic :) Sounds like you have a lot of events coming up that will help with motivation.
-
That's so funny maricari - I'm a Catherine Mary but go by Kate with a K. My roommate in college was from Spain and he couldn't pronounce my name right so he called me Kati Mari :) Are you interested in joining our group or were you just commenting? Just want to make sure I include you on updates if you want to join. :)
-
Awesome - so glad to have you Mary! Congrats on your loss so far!
-
Hey Mary - it might just be you and me in the beginning :) but I'll keep posting to see if we can get a few more people to join. Happy to meet you! Can't wait to hear more about Reike!

No tips, but just wanted to offer my encouragement. I'm running my first 5k next Friday and i'm in the exact same situation as you. I can run about 2.36 miles straight and I really want to be able to run the entire 5k. Good luck, let us know how it goes.
