I should have measured. I'm just wondering if this is not the workout for me. I need to lose at least 25lbs. My goal weight would be 40lbs. I know eating habits have a lot to do with me losing the weight and I'm slowing trying to adjust them. Trying to cut out pop and reduce portions right now.

Congrats everyone! I am getting marrived November 2015 and would like to lose at least 25lbs. My goal weight is still about 40lbs away. I started insanity workouts and am on week 2, I haven't yet adjusted my diet...but that's my next step

I'm not doing p90x, but insanity. Anyone else? I'm halfway through week 2 and would love to have some encouragement on this journey!

Yeah, I know I need to change eating habits, but I was just trying to do one small change at a time and implement diet here shortly. I just assumed as much cardio as I am doing a week compared to what I was doing-which was nothing that I should lost something. I'm desperate to lose some weight that I've put on in the past…

Whats T25? I am getting ready to start insanity on monday

add me if you would like. I am also restarting tracking my eating habits and exercise for my wedding next year.

I agree with the shoes! Go get fit for shoes at a running store! This has helped me so much! Also stretch, ice, and drink lots of water!! And listen to your body. If your really sore...it might be time to take a day or two off and rest so you dont get hurt!

I drank 3-4 a day, and I think it probably took me about a week to stop having headaches from them. They were just dull headaches, but never the less, they were still there. I have never felt better since I quit drinking pop though. I have so much energy, plus I lost 9 lbs from just quitting pop itself!! I don't have any…

Glad you were able to find a pair of shoes that work for you!!! I find shoes are so different for everyone. I personally cant wear any Nike's because they rub on my ankles and they make my feet soooo sore!! I do however, love my new Saucony Mirage shoes! I never have foot pain and they are so comfortable to wear! Im glad I…

I drink a lot of water throughout the day, and I usually don't have an issue. I would suggest gum to keep your mouth salivating while you run.

Thanks for all the help. I am not very far into running. I can only run about half a mile straight at this point, and am just trying to push myself a little further every time I go. I try to go for 2 miles total at this point, and just take quick breaks when needed. I like to run outside rather than inside, but my pace is…

I usually watch tv on the treadmill...its the only time of day I watch tv, so I tend to focus on that instead of the fact that I am running. I do have the Nike+ app on my phone which does the GPS and pace, but it doesnt always seem like the pace is that accurate when I look at it. I more use it for knowing the distance and…

Im getting ready to start the program over again (I stopped because of a hurt foot) but I plan on going to Zumba mondays and wednesdays and running tuesday friday and sunday. That way I will have thursday and saturdays off to rest

Congrats on your ultra marathon. I can't even imagine running that far!! :)

I would like to join you! I know everyone else has already started, but I am going to start today! Downloading podcasts right now. Im ready to start running!!

Thanks everyone for your encouraging words. Your right, I shouldnt wait to incorperate changing my food choices once I get the hang of everything. I would love to try the hypnosis, and although i don't have an ipod, I'm going to see if I can find a book or something on it. I know I have a lot of issues with emotional…

Thanks everyone! I tried C25K several times and I failed miserably!! But now that I am doing it on my own and have the willpower to keep going I feel amazing! The scale is still not moving, but I am hoping as I start to change my diet little by little that will move as well!! Running has become my stress relief from work…

Thanks! Maybe I will try couch to 5K again. Maybe I just didn't give it enough time. I would love to enjoy running. And I am so envious of people who go out everyday and love to run and can whip out several miles like its nothing!! Someday I will get there lol

Did anyone lose weight with the 30day shred? I am always so skeptical of workout videos for some reason. I have the biggest loser bootcamp one but havent tried it yet. Jillian's 30 day shred says you can lose up to 20lbs in 30 days--just curious if anyone has completed it and had luck.

Which program are you doing? I am thinking about starting the lean program again.

Thanks for all of your support. I just felt like I hit rock bottom today. My comfort as a lot of peoples is food when I'm upset. I know that I can break this cycle. I want to be healthy. I am ready to commit to a healthy lifestyle. And I know that this has to turn into a way of life not a diet in order to work. It just…

27oz down....and it's 10:52!! woo hoo!!!

add me! I need the motivation!!!!

it's been over a week, and this is the time of day I normally start noticing myself getting tired, but today is really bad, and I don't know why. I keep trying to tell myself that I know I will feel better after I run...but I have to make it through another 2 hours of work before I can get to that point.

Don't listen to that negative voice!! You can do it again! I am starting week 3 day 1 tonight and am a little nervous to run 3 mins straight and can't wait for the day I can run 20!! You've done it before!!

So i decided I am not going to run tonight, but rather go on a walk when I get home. I exercised three nights this week, though only 2 of them were running, I think I am ready to move onto week three. I will be starting week 3 day 1 tomorrow!! I hope I make it through!!

I ended up not running yesterday because the treadmills were fall. I did the elliptical...which I HATE (!!!!) I only was able to do 8 minutes on it before I felt like I was going to die, and then I just did some different variations of squats and sits up with and without the medicine ball. I am going to do week 2 day 3…

Hi everyone! I am looking for support while I am going through c25k. I finished week 2 day 2 yesterday and am doing ok with it so far. It is supposed to be my rest day today but I really feel like running so I think I'm going to go since I'm not too sore.

I would love to be your MFP friend. I have 29lbs to lose...I need some motivation!!

My boyfriend has a lot of jeans from American Eagle that look nice and "in style" i guess... We've bought jeans there anywhere from $20-$60. They usually have some good sales.
