i honestly wasnt sure if this was a joke or not?? and you say you "stick her on the treadmill"?? sounds a bit harsh... i think at 92 , you're asking too much of her. how about you two just go walking together around the block. im sure she'd prefer your company and fresh air instead of being stuck on a treadmill.... just a…

im in a similiar boat.......down about 45lbs with prob another 30 to go and cant get past this weight for months now.....been reading tons and tons and basically what im hearing is switch it up...do different work outs or different foods, etc. i know its frustrating but dont let it get to you......we all know how easy it…

i used to always do cookies, cake and candy.........but since starting on this weight loss journey (again) since april, i havent really had those so not sure what i'll do this year, if anything. maybe i'll do something instead......i do need to be more consistant with workouts.

me, my 2 sisters and mom and dad all started together on this journey. none of us live together but motivate each other and that helps. i work with my dad so we do lunches together so trying to lose weight together helps.

For me, it helped by telling myself just get thru 2 weeks of no sweets. that has helped kill alot of my sugar/sweet cravings.

welcome here and hope you find the support you're looking for. feel free to add me :)

its the week and day....week 2, day 2..... the snow storm here in NY put a little dent in my C25K progress..too snowy and icy to do it outside ..but not giving up..
-
go to the "success stories" thread and read how everyone got to their goal weight and kept it off. You wont see any fat loss/ weight loss products in their stories. thats got to say something.

Congrats on graduating the C25K program and onto the next level! just a question for you-- were you active at all when you started this? did you find it easy to get to end ?
-
My update: started W2/D1 yesterday..it was hard...but im determined. i will be a runner (or jogger lol) by the end of this.. i dont care my speed just want to be able to run straight thru... Everyone is doing great!
-
Dont let 2 weeks discourage you !! you can do it..break it down-- thats about 21 weeks to lose 35lbs...its doable!!!
-
yes i got that earlier..logged off and back on and so far so good..
-
thats great!!
-
no loss, no gain..but no loss at all since this challenge started... took measurements (which i do about once a month) no change there either.. keep telling myself i will NOT get discouraged.... obviously want/need to lose more but i know me, once i get discouraged i will gain what i had worked hard to lose already. but…

-
completed week1/day 2 and OMG LOL jogging for one minute outside is def not the same as jogging in place inside.. day 1 i did inside and was doable.. yesterday did it outside and was alot harder........ cant see how i'll ever manage 30 minutes but thinking positive and taking each day each week at a time...... Definetly…

GO 2 weeks without any sweets/sugar including fruits... you will see how your body and mind dont crave them like before i too would have way too much sugar/sweets .. had started following the south beach (which is based on a low sugar program) and when the book said get thru the 2 weeks only, your cravings will change , i…

this is something i am working on..........i hardly ever eat breakfast and know i need to . the main answer to your question would be, for me is i am not hungry in morning..and why eat if im not hungry? this is/was my method of thinking but after losing weight and now at a standstill, trying to change things up..
