LOL! Modcloth.com - love that site!!! By request I did open my diary to public. I try and record everything but some days I don't quite make it to tracking dinner. I do a lot of batch cooking/freezer cooking from scratch so I have a LOT of recipes saved that you'll see throughout my diary.

Yes, I kept running. I ran another 5K in October and an 8K in November.

While doing C25K I lost maybe 6 pounds (this was before I got strict about tracking my food). I certainly felt better and had more energy, but it didn't do much for weight loss. After my first 5K I continued running regularly AND started tracking my food intake. I've lost about 25 pounds since that point. So if you're…

I am wearing the exact same dress in grey for my sister's wedding in July! You look great! congrats!

I made a smoothie today with 8oz almond/coconut milk, 2 cups kale, 1 cup frozen pineapple, 1 tbsp chia seed, and a small banana. Very yummy and came in around 330 calories total (I split it with my daughter). Sometimes I add greek yogurt to make them thicker. I almost always throw in kale. I tend to use them as…

I have had Mirena for about 2 years now and have lost weight - refer to ticker :-)

I got the One for X-Mas and I love it! For me I find it extremely accurate when it comes to both step and calorie counting. I wear it on my bra strap all day every day.

Way too low. Going by your ticker I'd start with 1600-1800 plus eating at least 1/2 of your exercise calories back.

Awwwwww...*blushes* Thanks everyone!

I run! More of an treadmill/classes girl currently but planning to pick it back up in the spring. Hopefully a couple 5Ks, a 10K and maybe a half in the fall.

I have Mirena, and I do tend to lose slowly - usually between 1/2 pound - 1 pound a week. But my calories are only set to lose a pound a week anyway, so it's pretty on track. Slow weight loss is more sustainable anyway.

I'm just outside Buffalo NY

I weigh daily, in the morning. I record a "new low" of a half pound or more. Sometimes I wait until I see that number 2-3x before I log it if I have a feeling it might be a fluke. It averages out to updating my MFP weight 1-2x/week. I do not record the 1-3 lb increases I have on occasion. They always trend back down. If…

I started running at my heaviest, about mid-190s. I did fine with C25K but I took it very slowly and did have some trouble with minor injuries here and there that would sideline me for a week or two.

I'm 17 pounds into a 50 pound journey. Feel free to add me!

I also cannot have sweet things in the house. No cookies, no cakes (I do make homemade things now and again - making banana bread this morning), no candy, no chocolate. I just can't control myself around it. I don't even go into the bakery aisle at the store. I plan out my meals. I aim for 300-400 calories 4x a day. I used…

I also recommend a structured program. I started regularly exercising in April/May, started Couch to 5K in June, ran my 5K in August, and I am currently working toward 10K. My most recent long run was 5 miles. So... about 4-5 months of regular running just to get me to 5 miles. But I'm very slow. And started very out of…

Another Momma here who needs to lose about 50# total. Add me!

28 year old mom and nurse here in NY. The more friends, the more motivation for me, so I add everyone :-)

I aim for 1600-ish plus exercise calories. Any less than that and it's a serious binge trigger for me. Add me!

Add me too! I get a good group going then a lot of people stop logging in and I'm left with like 2 friends lol.
