Fantastic! Thanks.

If you can stick at five, you're a better woman than me!

Congratulations! I was dreading it too and googled every C25K, W5D3 comment I could find....I read lots of things that said, "trust the programme, you can do it" and it seems to be right doesn't it? It seems like such a jump but you're obviously ready for it. Good luck with finishing the programme.

Hi and welcome - have sent you a friend request. I've been here since Jan and love MFP! I'm from the NW of England.

I don't eat meat (do sometimes eat fish)...feel free to friend me, my diary is open to friends, so you can have a look at things I typically eat. I last ate meat when I was 16 and I'm 39 now....I don't take supplements and am feeling just fine, lol!

I see you're in the USA, but as an English person I can assure you that using the Daily Mail as your evidence really hasn't done you any favours. I am a researcher and yesterday at work, I got a little distracted and started doing a little research on vegan children (coincidentally) and they evidence (in peer reviewed…

I am *really* motivated by my friends and I see you don't have that many (sorry, that sounds so rude, lol!)....when I log on and I see that they are all running here there and everywhere, they are shredding, walking, swimming, closing diaries under goal and losing weight....well I want to be part of their gang! Get some…

Wow! Really well done.

Wow! Really well done.

Just checking I updated the ticker!

I had a day out with the kids today and walked a minimum of 4 miles - I'll just log the 4 though!

http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/03/asparagus-and-poached-eggs-over-pasta.html I had this last week - it's very simple but it was good!

Hmmm, I thought I did quite well - I extended by c25k a bit and made it 2.5 miles. Going to have to try harder...

When I started here I had size 16 Fat Face jeans and size 10 Gap jeans.....but it was the fact that the Gap jeans were becoming impossible to wear that made me wind up round here! So, I'd say Gap 10s are a bit like a UK 15. But one style to another varies too.

I was just thinking that I could go out for a walk but then I realised I don't need to bother until tomorrow! :laugh:

I'm liking the sound of this challenge too! I'm in!

Lol! Same here!!

I still can't get those Iko Iko gold moves. And there are 8 of them so it's spoiling my score! Anyway, mine are Iko Iko = 7742 Wake Me Up = 9311 Body Movin' = 6272

Absolutely this! I read a similar post to this when I started MFP in January and declared myself medium frame. Well, 23 lbs later, I seem to be small frame. Hmmmm, it can't be right can it? Maybe I've lost fat off my hands and wrists! I am now 1lb off a healthy BMI and yet according to this - being a small frame - I have…

I do this. On non run days - once a week I go to the gym and walk fast on a steep incline for about 45 mins - then have a swim. I do a bit of Just Dance 2 on the wii but that about fills any available time.

I loved that...thanks! Sue (c25k, w4d1 complete today!)

Can anyone help me with the Iko Iko gold moves? I know you'd be helping the competition but I'm no real threat (!). I just can't get those gold moves....not sure what I'm doing wrong.

I love GM too! I just got tickets to see him....so excited!

I think you just did!

Yay! I love these three!

Why not give it a go and see how you get on? I started it last summer and got bad knees.....I'm on week 3 now and so far so good. You can always stop and try again in a few months! What have you got to lose?

I get 163. I'm 5'3 and 144lbs.

You have my sympathy (see my similar thread on this page!!). I don't really have any advice, but if you read the comments on my thread it looks like we're not alone. I guess we just keep at it. Are you close to healthy weight?

I'll try the water thing! Thanks.

Thank you for the lovely reply! You see, this is the kind of thing I find so frustrating! Why would the glass of wine / port make you *gain*? I'd think if you were exercising and eating under cals but just added the wine, it would make you maintain! Hmmmm, so annoying....to easy to put weight on and not to lose it! Anyway,…
