We switched to 4 tens at work. My gym time was 5-6, start work at 7. . . now I have to be at work AT 6. I've been rocking the 4:30 is too early excuse for a week and a half now.

I don't care about his past, I'm his future. He doesn't want to know about my past due to his own insecurity issues (at least he recognizes he has them), lol. We're all good and share when it is necessary or wanted, or as the situation arises.

I agree that 1200 is too low for what you are exercising. MFP puts me at 1400 calories to lose a pound a week, but every other calulator out there puts me at 1700 to lose a pound a week. I've been stuck on a plateau for as long as I can remember. Working out 5-6 days a week, eating 1400 calories, and NOTHING. Two weeks ago…

PS: I have slight OCD issues so these color runs, run or dye, slime run, all of those gross me out to no extent! LOL But I hope you enjoy it!

Having a bad week. I just can't seem to adapt to my new work schedule and haven't been running this week. I hate feeling like this but 10 hr days are killing me. I will keep trying, it has to be morning, my evenings with the kids are way too busy and provide too many outs to get to the gym, so I have tobe there at 4:45 or…

Number 3 would be the most outragelously funny. Number 1 is awesome and would be more subtle. . . Which one are you more up for?

I've missed running the last 3 days, I feel like a slug - like I'm letting myself down. Trying to find a way back to the gym tonight to get in W3D3. . . every excuse in the book this week. They moved our work start time to 6 am. 5-6am has been my gym time for the last 3 months, so now I would have to do 4:30-5:30 and then…

I pulled some weak-@$$ moves today at the gym, but I got there, lol. New work schedule dictates new gym time, and its throwing me off (and I brought the X-trainers instead of the running shoes, LOOK AT ALL MY EXCUSES) Tomorrow I will be re-doing W4D3, for the second time, to completetion. I have to get out of my own head,…

I use RunDouble

I do 3.2/4.2 at a 1.5 incline. 4.5 was just exhausting me, although for my 5 min run I did the slow it down to 4.0 to get through it.

I did W4D1, then took 2 days off, not looking forward to tonight, and am already planning on repeating W4 again.

I spend about $150 a week for 5 people. I meal plan ahead of time. Definitely buy a crock pot, you can get them cheap and they are so worth it! And I haven't tried Asian markets, but our hispanic markets are the best for cheap meats and veggies, oh, and spices in the hispanic food sections of all grocery stores and about…

I use Libra on my droid for my daily weigh-ins

I did it! I did it! I did it! And I did die (although at parts I felt like I was, lol). W4D1 down the tubes, with two full 5 minutes runs. I had to take a 30 second walk in the middle of the second 3 min rotation, but other than that, I TOTALLY DID THAT!!! I may spend a couple weeks at this level until it's more…

This is what I'm striving for, finding that Rhythm! Thanks!!

Thanks! You know, I didn't want to die at 3 min, it was tough, but not unmanageable. I was supposed to start today, and am in total beat-up mode because I missed the gym this morning. Tomorrow, I will start. How did your W4D1 go?

A C25K group just started here. . . you should join us. You can also add me, and ignore the fact I'm having a bad day today, I'm usually much more positive and happy. I'm about to start week 4. . . I'm intimidated, but going to do it tomorrow. I was supposed to start today, but overslept :( So TOMORROW IT IS!

Lemon drop chicken wings?

Love all these ideas. First date with my hubby-to-be: Golfing, but only 9 holes "just in case we hate each other", followed by drinks and food in the bar after because we were having such a great time. Activities are the way to go, things to do so you don't have to fill the silence of dinner at a restaurant, it's so much…

I actually like the treadmill, because it controls my speed for me. . . I have a habit of pushing myself too hard, and then burning out so that I can't finish. I set the treadmill at a 1.5 incline and then run at only 4.2. I get bored with all cardio, so I get my headphones going, or on a good day will netflix on my Kindle…

So this woman made your supposed best friend's life hell, stalked her on FB and said horrible things to and about her, and you did NOTHING? Yeah, you are a sucky friend. SUCKY! If someone did that to my best friend, you can bet your butt I would have something to say about that. You should apologize to your friend for…

I found that I had to slow down in order to suceed. I was trying to run at 5.0 and failing miserably, and miserable the whole time I was doing it. Then I spent time on a treadmill next to my trainer (who hates cardio), and she was going at 4.2 and just prancing along, so I slowed my pace down to, and VOILA, I could finally…

Nutritionist told me this morning that you MUST eat something before your morning workout. . .and all I could think was "you want me puking on the treadmill?" I get up at 4:30 and am at the gym by 5 - with nothing but water. I get to work at 7, have some coffee, and usually about 8:30 is when I eat. I can not eat first…

Treadmill running, because I hate the cold so much! My C25K app is RunDouble on my droid. Are there any C25K programs that are made for Treadmill running? They all want to GPS me :( I was supposed to be getting my running shoes this week, as I promised myself if I stuck with it through January, I would reward myself with…

Today was W3D3. . . I don't feel like I'm ready to move to Week 4 yet, or maybe I'm just scared and intimidated by the thought of running 5 whole minutes in a row. Thinking I will do a couple more days of Week 3. How many days a week is everyone running?

Name: Patti Location: Eastern WA (Home of the future superbowl champion Seahawks) Age:43 Goal: Short term: March 15 St Patty's day 5K. . . long term, really considering a 10K after this, but a definite long term is the fact that I am marrying in to a family where all the brother's wives are runners and do every holiday 5K…

I am on Week 3 day 2, for the first time, I really feel like I can do this! Feel free to add me, I would love love love to have people who are going through this with me :) (just tell me in the request, so I know who you are)

Chick is clearly photoshopped, and very poorly at that. THAT was the point of pointing out her physique. And I really don't care whether weights are pink are not. The issue is they target these products at women, and then stop them at 10 lbs. As if women don't want or use heavier weights. As for the kiddie ads, check out…

I posed this question yesterday to friends. . . desperately need some new music. I prefer country for drive music, but that is just NOT good to try to run to. . . so I'm trying to expand my musical horizons in to a more hip hop genre which seems to perk me up a little more. Thanks for the Songza app suggestion. I tried to…

I am so going to work that phrase in to a conversation today! I LOVE IT!!
