Honestly I drink a lot of water. When I eat a lot of snacks, albeit healthy ones, in between meals it makes me hungrier. For me, eating my three main meals and then maybe some carrots or fruit in between helps. But the water is what really does it.

You are a true inspiration! Thank you so much for sharing your story!

Way to go guys! You all can do it if I can!! I have never before been a runner in my life. I am now on Week 8 of the program, almost done! I have two 5K's that I am signed up for and I hope to finish them. :) Just remember, don't compete with someone else....do what you can do and you will get through it.

That is great! I have 2 weeks left.

Congratulations on reaching goal!!!

Don't I know it! I am trying not to drive myself crazy with it.

Anyone? :)

I definitely know some of mine is water weight. It was water weight I had gained about a week ago. Still nice to see the scale go down!

I lost 4.4lbs this past week as well! For me I am shocked that I was able to do it. Unforatunately I was eating out lunch more than I have been. However, I pre-planned everything and it seems to have worked! I do the couch325K program 3x a week and I walk on the treadmill for a minimum of 30mins the rest of the week. Now…

I was jogging at 3.5mph but I increased to 4.0 because I hope to actually have jogged 3.1 miles (5K) by the end of the program. I am doing week 7 over again. I will try jogging back at 3.5 tomorrow and see if I can get all the way through it.

It is just confusing and I want to make sure that I am making a lifestyle change that I can live with. It is hard to get to the 1370 that MFP has set for me (without exercise). Then I worry that I am not calculating my calories burned correctly and end up eating too much. I am seeing weight loss and I am very happy with…

Going on 2 cruises in the last 3 years and having my husband oggle other women. I mean, I know he has the right to look but it does hurt my feelings. I want him to look at me like that.

You are awesome! Congratulations and keep up the great work!

I am so discouraged right now! I just finished W7D3 and I should be happy. Except for W7D2 and W7D3, I wasn't able to jog the whole 25 minutes. I did fine on D1. What is wrong with me? Looks like I am going to have to do W7 over and I am fine with that. I just wish I knew why I seem to be losing momentum?!? :sad:

I am not really sure about that other than maybe you aren't eating enough? I am still fairly new to this "eat your exercise calories back" but I have noticed that I still see a weight loss when I do this. Good luck!

Welcome! This site has been great in helping me in my journey to being a healthier me. I love that I can get instant support from many people any time of the day that I need it. We are all here doing the same thing so that helps! For me, I started slow on changes. First I started drinking water, nothing but water. I had to…

It was happening to me during Couch25K. I would get to the part where I would be done jogging and start walking...as I slowed the treadmill down....:blushing:

Shoosh! I don't know if that would be a good idea or not! I may not be able to stop myself. :blushing:

Thanks! This gives me a starting point. When I looked online there are so many! And I want to make sure what I use will integrate with MFP. No point in maintaining multiple sites.

Happy Monday, anyone? ;)

Congratulations! You look great!

I just finished W7D1 yesterday. Boy was it rough to get through the 25 mins but I did it! Looking forward to how I do tomorrow!

Thanks everyone! I don't know how much I ate, in regards to calories, Friday night but I ate really well the rest of the weekend. I ended up with just a 0.6lb lost but hey, it was a loss. Kudos to me!

How do you find a place that can fit you for running shoes? We have the regular shoe stores and we have a ****'s nearby. Any suggestions?

Yea it is hard to determine what is the right calorie intake. There are so many sites and so many variables. On here I know that I get more calories to eat when I exercise. That helps but then when I can't eat all of the calories I wonder what that is doing. LOL Can I just go back in time to when I started eating…

:blushing: Yea that would be better. LOL

"Controlled non-diet" day. I love that Ellie!

First of all, awesome weight loss!!! Secondly I try not to do anything considering cheat.... I do go over by a hundred or so calories sometimes but I don't worry about that too much. Today is different because it is hard to calculate the nutrition for sushi and it is my weakness. I know I am going to want to have some…
