Hello. I'm from Bartlesville, OK

I ran the Color Run in Tulsa this past June. I ran it with my daughter. We had an absolute BLAST! This year, in April we have a whole group of people that are going to run it with us! Have a blast!!!!

Can you change my goal weight to 215? I just think 210 was too ambitious and I dont' want to have an unrealistic goal. Thanks!

Just checking in- No change this week. I'm still 227.8. I'm actually happy with that since I have had a rough week eating wise. On to next week!!!

OKay just checking in. I have been a total slacker the last few days. I went on a weekend trip to visit my dad and step mom with the kids this past weekend. I ran my second 5K (and beat my previous PR). But my eating has not been great, and I haven't done the sit ups and squats like I should be! So here I am, with a weigh…

Good Morning Everybody! I got my water in yesterday and did 30 girly pushups last night. I am really looking forward to this week's challenges. Situps and squats here I come! I have also been struggling with "mindful" eating, so that is going to be a really great challenge for me this week! I am running my second 5K on…

I think you are right. So if we are wrong, then we are both crazy I guess! :-)

Good Morning! Challenge Start Weight - 230 Current Weight - 227.8 I need to change my goal weight for the challenge. I think I originally posted 210 but I think that was too aggressive! So i'm going to shoot for 215 instead!~ I did 30 girly pushups and 50 crunches last night. I also got in more than my 8 cups of water! Now…

I think I joined after you had already created the chart. If you could please add me that would be great! My starting weight was 230 My current weight as of Sunday is 227.8

Hmmm...i need to watch that. I eat most of my protein at dinner most of the time. I will have to keep an eye on that and see if it makes a difference. Thanks for the tip!

I have a lot of trouble with night time snacking. I feel like I just can't get satisified or something. I am really trying to work on it! :-) I'm not help to you, I just wanted to let you know that you aren't alone!

Just out of curiosity, does anybody that has had major heel problems run with Vibrams? I have thought about getting some, but I had foot surgery on one foot last year, and am probably going to have to have the same surgery on my other foot in the near future. I am just wondering if they provide the support needed.

I just read back through and found this week's challenge. I am wanting to start JM 30Day Shred tonight, so I will get my push ups in that way. I am going to aim for 30 a day to start out with. The girly kind! :-)

Can I still join? My name is Kori. I started MFP back in December 2010. I lost 50 pounds very quickly by April 2011. I have since maintained that wait, but have been doing through a very ugly divorce since April, so I haven't been losing. I need to get back on track and start losing again! So here I am joining a challenge…

I'm from Bartlesville, OK. Which is 45 miles north of Tulsa.

I am using the Bridge to 10 K app. I'm only done with week 1, but so far I like it. It tracks distance, pace, etc using GPS, and you can play your music from the app. Or you can choose to use Pandora for music if you'd rather. This is a good program if you have already finished the C25K program.

I am recently a single mom of 3 kids. My kids are 4, 6, and 8, so I am having this same struggle. Between work, school, soccer, gymnastics, etc., it is very difficult to find time to work out. I try to have my mom watch the kids occassionally so I can go run. Running is my stress reliever. I am going to make it a goal to…

My most recent NSV was this past Saturday. I ran my first 5K ever. I finished the entire thing with no walking! :-)

Congratulations on finishing your first run! I am almost finished with the C25K program, and am running my first 5K on September 24. When I first started, I thought there was no way I would ever be able to run 3.1 miles. Are you kidding me?? But today at lunch, I ran 3.1 miles and if I had more time, I could have gone…

I just finished Week 4! I start Week 5 tomorrow. I have to tell you, I LOVE it! It is such an amazing feelings every time I finish a run! I am aiming to run a 5K at the end of September. My 8 year old daughter wants to run with me. I can't wait! :-) Good luck to everybody that is just starting out. Stick with it! You can…

I just finished day one the other day, then I got sick and haven't done it since! But I'm in if that's still okay?

This was very interesting and helpful to me. I am getting ready to start week 4 of C25K tonight, and have just started having some shin pain. I am going to concentrate tonight on this and hopefully it will get rid of the problem! Thanks!

What part of Oklahoma are you from?? I live in Bartlesville.

Great idea to post this! We are homebound today in Oklahoma. We have about 12 inches so far and it's not slowing down at all yet! :-) I think I will do Zumba later!

I got Zumba fitness for the Wii for Christmas and I LOVE it! I work for a company that has a full fitness center that we are allowed to use for free, and they had Zumba classes last year, but the instructor couldn't do it anymore, so now they don't! I'm hoping that they find another instructor SOON so that I can attend a…

Oklahoma here!

Week 2 weigh in- 251.6 I'm slowly but surely making it there!!!!!

Yeah I'm not going to get it sized right now. I'm going to wait until I get to my goal weight so I only have to do it once. I think I will go to a local jeweler and see what they recommend.

WEDNESDAY CHALLENGE Results 10 Water - Done! 20 Minutes Resistance Training (weights, pushups, etc...you choose, mix and match if you want) - I did 20 minutes of circuit training which included resistance, so I'm counting it!~ :-) 30 Minutes Cardio - I did 20 minutes of Zumba, so No. :-( Under Calories - Yes!

I also might try working out at lunch 2 or 3 days a week. The problem is that it is so rushed, but I can handle it. Right now the fitness center will be PACKED with all the people starting their new years resolutions. So maybe I"ll try at night for awhile! :-)
