Also, to help with sore muscles, try Epsom Salt Baths. Epsom Salts can be found in the pharmacy area (look in the area for burns OR in the laxative area) of most grocery stores like Wal-mart. Sprinkle two cups of Epsom Salts in a warm bath and soak for about 15 minutes. Try and do it twice a week. You'll be amazed at how…

Sunday (3/04) - 1.1 miles: Went for a walk around the neighborhood with my hubby Monday (3/05) - 3 miles: easy pace; day one of 1/2 marathon training. Woot!! Total Mileage: 4.1

My advice would be to stick with one plan for more than a week... I know it's hard when you don't see results after changing a habit. You think it should happen all at once, but it won't. Keep up the good work with getting healthier calories and stay consistent with it for a few months. Your body will change and you'll see…

Great mileage, everyone!! I've been feeling really tired the last few days, but I'm determined to rock the mileage every day. Today begins my 13-week training program for the 1/2 Marathon I'm running on June 2nd, and the OTHER 1/2 marathon I'm running on June 9th (back to back weekends, woot!!), so hopefully I will get out…

Love the Quote, Reese!! Totals for last week: Sunday (2/26) - 5 miles: Went for a very hilly, very WINDY, 5 mile run Monday (2/27) - 1.45 miles: Just a quick run on the treadmill Tuesday (2/28) - 1.15 miles: Walked on a high incline. Just felt like my body needed a rest from running. Wednesday (2/29) - 3.50 miles:…

This!! Except mine is view-able to friends only because I think going all the way public is a little too far for me. The friends I choose on MFP are people in line with my goals and habits for the most part so I feel I have a really good, supportive group of people to view and 'judge' my diary :)

You guys are all so inspiring! Here's what I've got with today: Sunday (2/26) - 5 miles: Went for a very hilly, very WINDY, 5 mile run Monday (2/27) - 1.45 miles: Just a quick run on the treadmill Tuesday (2/28) - 1.15 miles: Walked on a high incline.

I have a Nike sports bra... but I can't remember what the style is. It's for larger girls, high impact and has adjustable straps and clasps in the back instead of pulling over. I LOVE it! Anyway, here's a good list for you to check out, since I'm not very helpful :smile:…

Believe in your own Power!

This made me snort... I, too, can be quite uncoordinated but I've never done a combat roll... the imagery makes me giggle. Thanks for sharing!! :laugh: Ok, updated mileage: Sunday (2/26) - 5 miles: Went for a very hilly, very WINDY, 5 mile run Monday (2/27) - 1.45 miles: Just a quick run on the treadmill Tuesday (2/28) -…

^^^ This! :love:

^^ This is true too. Sometimes, to get through the wall, you just lean forward and focus on putting one foot in front of the other. Try a mantra... something you can chant that motivates you and matches the beats of your footfalls. Don't give up just because you don't feel good after 5 minutes of running, the rush comes…

It sounds to me like it would be helpful for you to invest in a Garmin, or an app on your phone that uses GPS or a treadmill if you stay inside, to track your pace. If you feel so out of breath in one minute that you can't continue, you may just be going too fast. Speed takes time to work up to... try going from your walk…

Hello all! As stated previously, I also LOVE this challenge group! It's so fun to read through all the posts and see what other people are doing! Here's sending out lots of energetic mojo for a great week! :drinker: Sunday (2/26) - 5 miles: Went for a very hilly, very WINDY, 5 mile run with my good friend Jenny :smile:…

^^^ Absolutely this!

:laugh: SO FUNNY, and yet SO TRUE!! :laugh:

I really like to add Dark Red Kidney Beans and some freshly sliced beets to my salads. YUM! I rinse off the kidney beans before using them which helps lower some of the sodium. Toss in some cilantro and seasonings and it's a delicious salad with good protein and vitamins!

Welcome to MFP! I've sent you both a friend request. Cheers to the beginning of your journey :drinker:

Sunday (2/19) - 3.65 miles - Had a nice outside run with my friend Jenny. Monday (2/20) - 2.60 miles - did the treadmill while watching an episode of Desperate Housewives. Felt good! Tuesday (2/21) - 1.1 miles - just doing my regular mile today Wednesday (2/22) - 4.89 miles - Night run with a friend who really pushed me…

Love this! :flowerforyou:

I'm into my second month and just now noticing changes. I added daily exercise and have been eating healthy instead of "dieting" or depriving myself. I'm excited to see what happens in another month!!

I know why there's a smiley face on that bowl... mmmmmmmm..... :smooched:

:flowerforyou: Excellent points, stated clearly and concisely. Thank you!

I could sit and gaze at him forEVER :love: :love: :love:

He's the first picture on the first post! Makes me drooooooooollllll..... :tongue:

I have the 410 and when I'm done with my workout, I go to Menu > History > Activities and it gives me my data there. Best of luck!
