Great job Trish! Baby steps girl, your hA1c may not have come down as much as you were hoping but it came down!! Do the happy dance your doing awsome! Hummm many things to ponder Nicole ...another race in oct in the redwoods would be great. I've already given the SF 1/2 marathon a thought but I just don't know, those hills…

Hey everyone, had a blast this weekend camping and doing The Ave 10k. It was so exciting to be a part of all the excitment and I can't wait to get better at running, I felt so much better then I thought when I first started just a few weeks ago. Nicole- i'm so bummed we didn't get to meet up, the only bad thing about the…

I eat oatmeal, to keep it from getting boring I either put 1 tbs peanut butter with raisins or a cup of sliced strawberries. If I don't eat oatmeal I eat scrambled eggs with lots of veggies. I saute onion, bell pepper, spinach and then 2 scrambled eggs and put that in a tortilla. very filling and a great start to the day.…

Thanks for sharing, I can't wait to try the Minty Edamama Pasta!

I think that's so very do-able! One of my favorite quotes lately that I say to myself while i'm running is "nothing is stopping me but myself!" Everytime I run I just add maybe 30 more secs before I do stop or maybe even a block or 2. You'd be amazed at how much that adds up and how much more I can do. When I started…

I'm 5' 5" and weigh 166, I fit comfortably in a size 12. Hopefully a 10 soon because I ripped my pants and i'm down to one pair of jeans! My closet is full of 10's :laugh: figures

Happy friday, not much to report this week. I'm feeling really good with my running and so amazed at how far I have come in such a short time. 10K still makes me a bit nervous but I know I can do it and i'm looking forward to seeing what my time will be. I also get to meet up with Nicole!! how cool is that!! We are headed…

I went out for dinner the other night and ordered halibut with mango salsa!! It was amazing!!! I don't know exactly what was in it but I bought mango's the very next day just to make mango salsa. I plan on making it tonight so if I remember I will let you know how it is.

We have 2 silly girls Justice and Willow. Justice our blue nose pit is just a goof ball. Just a ball of love & can't wait for someone to rub her belly. She is almost a year old and my new running partner! Willow- is a 1 year old Presa Canary Mastiff, we just adopted her about 2 months ago and is just the perfect family…

Stacey- No worries, just out enjoying our sunshine as well. I've logged in all my food but I haven't gotten on here but to browse real quick then feel guilty so i head back outdoors LOL Nicole-Good to see you back amazing job breaking your plateau! Trish- hope your hand is doing better! Hope everyone else is feeling better…

I agree... I wouldn't give it much thought. I have taken it 2x in one day before and it's gone from 35 to 52 in one day but before then it has always stayed in the 35 range since last march 09.

I just sigend up for the Pound for pound challenge anyone else want to join me? <a href='http://www.pfpchallenge.com'><img src='http://d.iis7.pfpchallenge.com/images/newsletter/badge.jpg' border='0' /></a>

hey all, . My day went by fairly well today. I wish AF would just leave already so tired of her and all her misery! I was not the best person to be around today just plain ol' grumpy and the hard part is I know how bad I was. Just trucking right along, dh came home from work sick so the kids and I are taking extra vitamins…

My weekend went well away from home. I had a lot of sodium so i'm working on drinking LOTS of water today. I need to get a run in but boy does a weekend off just makes it hard to jump right back into working out. I'm talkng myself out of it when I know I need one, haven't run since thursday!! Cleaning out the new camper…

no where NEAR my goal only 1860 this week. Hope everyone else made it. Great job Larry

Good Morning.. I have to get ready for our visit with grandparents this weekend. We are driving down to San Francisco for the weekend tomorrow so I'm busy cleaning house before the housesitter gets here. *Eek* why do we always make our house so much cleaner for other people I will never understand LOL I have to get my run…

Hi everyone. This week went by so fast, I can't believe it. I did fairly well with easter, my downfall was the cookies I made on friday for some friends that came over for dinner. WHY oh WHY did I think I had the will power to not eat chocolate cookies with peanut butter chips? Boggles the mind LOL ate cookie dough and…

Didn't quite make it. I burned 2927. So close... This week I will defintately get there! Good luck everyone

Need to get my butt in gear, I have 1000 calories to burn by mon! Just wanting to say it so I'd do it, easter egg hunt in an hour then I have a baby shower later this afternoon...AGGHHH I'll let you know how it's goes tonight !!

Polar F11 and I LOVE IT. It does all the things I need it to do, i'm right there with ya I can't imagine working out w/o mine. Some say HRM are not that accurate but I say it's better then counting on the gym machines and it gives me a better idea of what my body is doing by watching my heart rate not just calories burned

I'm in to! People think i'm crazy going to the gym and working out at home so much lately so I'm glad to find some like minded crazy idividuals :laugh: I haven't reached 3500 in a week though but I'm up for the challenge! My workouts include Riding my bike at home, or spin class if the weather isn't great. I just started…

I have to tell you i'm AWSOME! HAHA no seriously, very proud of myself being back in the weigh loss mind set and on a roll!! I got on the scale and i'm down another 2lbs since MONDAY!! I know I won't lose this quick much longer but I am kicking my butt at the gym and at home. Yesterday I ran 3 miles, went to a spinning…

well i say you do the AVE because I WILL BE THERE!!!! How awsome would that be??? I'm not doing the 1/2 marathon ( a few of my friends are) but i'm going to suck it up and do my first 10k. Anyway, there is my 2 cents i'm rooting for THE AVE :bigsmile: So I felt really good yesterday, my first weigh in since I came back and…

Birthday shopping. I have a birthday party at 12 and it's already 10:30...I HATE shopping and especially dont' want to find something for a 1 year old that has everything already. Dreading going to the toy isle with my kids, wish me luck LOL

I am a newbie runner as well, as of this week I have run 3 days! I just read an amazing book that I would recommend to everyone just starting out, it's very informative and I cant' tell you how often I laughed out loud...seriously you have to atleast see if it's at the library. IT's called The non-runners marathon guide…

GOOD MORNING SUNSHINES! I have done well the last few days logging in here and keeping track of everything. I need to get a little better at a few things but I'm just taking it one day at a time! Today is a busy workout day, I am making up for yesterday with all the rain we had I didn't get any cross training in on my…

You look like a freakin model !!! Keep it up girl, you ROCK!

Your doing awsome! Keep up the good work, you might be slowing down a little on the weight loss to give your body time to adjust. Just keep on trucking and you'll start seeing results again soon!

I'm no expert but I would suggest to skip the nap and opt for a walk instead. It might make you feel better and regain your energy. I know I always feel more awake and refreshed even after a small walk. It might be very hard at first to resist the temptation to nap but I think in the long run you won't regret it.

Hey everyone! Long time no talk....no excuses for me, just got a little off track...okay I can't even see the track back up 8lbs WOW total shocker, ate a lot made bad choices and now i'm paying for it so not that much of a shocker. But i'm back here and making the most of it. I'm even getting into this running that is so…
