Agreed! You should also evaluate if you are really eating enough to compensate for your exercising. If you do not eat enough on a regular basis, you will end up feeling like you are starving which causes more problems than it solves. Look at your diary and look for patterns.

I'm in! I am going to run my 300 miles. My first half marathon is in one month!

I love body pump. I took spinning and body pump classes when I looked my absolute best. I just found some in my area. My ultimate fitness goal is to become a body pump instructor.

I agree, you are a runner! I did the C25K and am going to run my first 1/2 marathon in one month. I think you should keep going and do not stress about your time or how long you can run right now. Listen to your body and give yourself rewards for meeting your running goals. Every month I meet my training goals, I buy a new…

Add me. I share my diary with friends and I log in everyday.

I could use some motivation and will share in the joys as well. Add me please.

I just got started, but you can add me. Somedays are better than others, but I write down what I chow down. Good luck to you!

That is great news! BTW, wait until he sees you next time! ;o)

That is FANTASTIC! Do not be so hard on yourself, it is hard to get the momentum going again! You should be proud of yourself!!!

That is AWESOME! Congrats on your PR!!!

My jeans literally fell off me! They used to be tight!

I am 5'2' and my goal is 135. I would set a 10% goal first and then set mini-goals to get to your goal. Look for a good height weight chart that looks at your build, age, etc. to find out what is realistic and something you can maintain. BMI helps too, but I think that you are on the right track. Enjoy the journey!

Try eating different foods than you always eat. Variety is the spice of life. You will break through the plateau. PS stay away from diet soda, add water and get plenty of sleep!

Same thing happened to me. I could not lose weight to save my life. I log even if I go over my calories for the day. Hang in there!

I am a Rams fan, but feel free to add me to your friends list. I am new to MFP and am seeing results already!

You can add me. I log daily-unless I forget my phone! I teach so I have to use my phone to stay on track. I have 30 more pounds to lose and this works if you use it! Good luck and keep going!

You can add me. Unless I forget my phone, I log on and share my diary. I have about 30 pounds to go to get to my goal weight and I will do it by the end of the school year. I teach, so I have to log with my phone in order to stay on track. I have seen some real results and cannot wait to be a success story!

Run by Gnarls Barkley, Gotta Get Through this by Daniel Benningfield, Dog Days of Summer by Florence and the Machine, Glamorous Life by Sheila E., Moves Like Jagger, and a great underground mix of Bad Habits make my run awesome! I also throw in my guilty pleasures: a little disco plus Justin Timberlake and a little Lady…

I know what you mean. I am training for a half marathon in October and was not losing on WW. My running buddy suggested this and I have lost about 6 pounds in 3 weeks and I am not hungry. I was not eating enough on WW and I was hungry ALL THE TIME!!! On the other hand, I was learning about my triggers and my behavior. I am…

Have you tried the Sandwich Thins? I love them! 100 calories and they satisfy me for a while. If you do not have time to get sandwich thins, cut a slice of bread in half so you can enjoy your other lunch treats. I MUST have a Rice Krispie Treat or fun lunch time treat so I cut back on the bread with my sandwich. Try adding…

We must work out at the same gym! It literally makes me sick when someone is wearing an entire bottle of cologne, perfume, or even worse-AXE, then gets on the treadmill next to me. This is why I started running outside. Car exhaust smells better than cheap cologne or Axe anyday!

I am not a doctor or a running expert, but I will tell you this, I just started running about 2 years ago and am training for my first half marathon at the end of October. The biggest factors in increasing your mileage are how you feel when you run and how much time you can dedicate to running. There are a few good…

I love Emilybites.com! I made a bubble-up enchilada casserole that my husband LOVES! Laaloosh is also wonderful. Do not make the crockpot chicken cacciatore. YUCK! The crockpot beef stew was good. I just cooked 2 pounds of lean stew meat (in order to have lots of leftovers), 1 regular can of 98% fat free cream of mushroom…

You can add me. I need to lose about 30 pounds. I know that my DH does not really understand my desire to lose weight. Fortunately he loves me no matter what. This weight loss journey is about what I want, so I know what it is like to desire others to help keep you going when you feel like throwing in the towel. Keep…

I agree with her. Can you find a gym with flexible hours to go to instead of having to carry a gun while you work out? I feel for you that you have to think about this much less run while carrying a gun rather than enjoying the beautiful weather or the nature around you. Maybe you can find a friend who will run with you as…
