  • Don't think of it as a negative. Just think of how you would have done it you not lost the weight? Finishing a race is more important than obsessing over times. Enjoy your time out there. You can do it, and you can improve your time with more work. You obviously know how to put the work in so I'm sure you will get faster.…

  • Not sure if it's good for you but that is exactly the same thing I do. I just can't seem to drink anything once I'm home from work. At least you are meeting the quantity per day that you need, surely it can't be bad????

  • Welcome to the site. I am also new here, this is my second week.

  • I have the same issues with snacks. My husband likes to have a snack in the evening and I know that if it is something I like I will eat it all. Pick things your kids like that you don't really like. That is the only way I can do it. Fruit Cocktail cups are good, also the jello cups are good.
