That's the major problem, I actually have a friend that is attending law school with my boyfriend. But she runs at 5:30 and I typically have to be at work by 6 :( I just found a 26 week program, that I have no put into my calendar and scheduled to start on Monday. Again, any helpful hints and sources much appreciated.…

When I went to SIX FLAGS in Denver and I couldn't fit on the ride that just had a lap bar that goes across the group of people I was sitting with in the pirate ship :( Recently, not fitting in the swings at Disney California.

Irvine, CA here. Love and hate it all at the same time. Looking for people to go running with. Any volunteers? Hit me up.

Wow, I totally forgot about this post! but I completed my first 1/2 marathon in 2:56:32, this was very exciting for me since I signed up expecting to take the whole 4 hours to complete! I have signed up for my second half in September for the Disneyland 1/2 So happy I signed up because it sold out in 26hrs! Wish me luck!…

I say do whatever works for you, and stop looking for helpful advice. Your obviously going to do whatever you want just like the rest of us. Its your big boy thoughts that help you make these decisions. You can either take what he has to say as helpful or you move on. But insulting someones intelligence whether you believe…

It's good to see we all have each other to support! I started at 320 got down to 203 back in May. But have gained weight again and am back up to 240. I for some reason lost control, but now I'm focused and I'm running my weight back off. I have a full and a half marathon to prepare for. I completed my first half marathon…

I live in Irvine and work in Rancho Santa Margarita. I love to run but have been out of the loop and started gaining what I lost. I recently lost 124 but now I can only claim to have lost 80 since I have gained some back from over the summer. Looking for some friends and gym suggestions. I moved out here from Colorado…

I love Crystal Cove, this is where I took my son for his first time at the beach when we moved out here in May from Colorado.

ADD ME TO THE PARTAY!!!

This has been most helpful! Thank you so much. I will be pacing myself through running and walking with a friend of mine doing this with me. I think I will be fine-ish lol guess we will see Sunday. Oy!

Thank you! This will be very helpful!

I started at 320 and it's been a journey. I know If I can lose 125lbs I can run a 13 mile run. Just not sure how to since its such a short time span, by that I mean a week to train lol

I forgot to mention this is happening SUNDAY! which makes me even more nervous. But I'm sure everything will be fine. Right?!

I run at 10 on Sunday!!! If my job will give me the friggn day off! I signed up for it so long ago I forgot to request it off :(

Im moving to the OC next week! Add me if youd like. ANyone else from Cali that is near by is also welcome to add me!

Although this may be true to most of us...let me tell you something. The sex gets so much better!!! When you can't have it as much as your use to or when you want it. OMG Sex is so much more HARDCORE when you do see each other lol

My boyfriend and I have been together for 4.5 years. In August he took a big step and is attending Law School in California. We decided that his first year would be incredibly busy and that it would be easier for us to have him live out there and me stay here in Colorado while he attends his first year. But we make it…

LOVINGME19!! She motivated me to lose the weight I have lost after seeing how far she has come. I started at 320lbs just a little over a year ago. Currently im 200.8lbs and have her to thank for being there when I needed someone the most and introducing me to this website. Thank you girl!

As of Today!!! 120 pounds = amount of trash you throw away in a month And still going!!!! Wooohoo!!!

Thank you all again for your motivation to keep going!

Thanks everyone :)

Some people have asked how in the world do I work out that much......Ill tell you how. I MAKE TIME! It's so important to me that I have waken up at 415am before just to make a 5am boot camp class. Ive got home from work at 915 pm and gone for a run. On my days off I go out of my way to do some sort of workout! It is…

Ever since Ive lost weight I no longer have had acid reflux!!! I mean when I was 320 EVERYTHING would trigger it. Pizza, Peppers, Cucumbers and other things. It was getting ridiculious! But since Ive continued losing weight I no longer have that problem! It feels so good! I use to get it so bad it would make me throw up.…

The thing with teas and other drinks of that sort count as a dietretic. I usually just fill my bottle of water every time its out. But otherwise if im eating out I typically get a water with lemon.

I most deffintly have a love hate relationship with burpees! Cant wait to do them again tomorrow! lol

What matters is that your doing it! The first one dont end up injurying yourself. Push yourself as much as you can to the finish line. That alone will be an accomplishment. Then the next 5k try and beat that time :) My first 5k I finished in 39 minutes on an injured ankle I did a 5M and finished in 59.55! didnt stop or…

im currently 206 and would like to be 199 by the end of march!

I would go to a running store that specializes in running shoes. Here we have Boulder Running Company and Runners Roost. They test your feel in the shoes you try on. I prefer the Lunar Glides. They just seem to have that nice cushion to help take preasure off my knees and feet. Those and Brooks are good too I hear. But…

Yeah I failed! I bought a box of Tagalongs and ate the heck out of them. But now I havent wanted anymore after that. Just had to get my one time a year fix....unfortunetly I ate the whole box in one sitting....they were so amazing. I know if I didnt have any I would have ate other crappy things. So its done and over with!…
