bump for later

Thanks everyone! I think I'm gonna invest :)

This! It took me until I was 43 to realize I am not obligated to put up with a toxic person, even a toxic mother. I got counseling and it has helped me immensely. It allowed me to set up boundaries and if your mother wants to be a part of your life she will respect those boundaries. My experience was that my mothers self…

I'm late to the thread! I need a kick in the but to get back to where I was before the holidays! SW: 196 CW: 170+/- 1lb GW: 165 Weigh in Dates: 3/1 170 3/8 3/15 3/22 3/28 End of Month (or whatever weigh in days you use) Total weight lost: Just for fun: What new fitness exercise or event are you going to do this month?…

I'm interested in replies as well. Great post

This! It transformed my life from zero miles to eleven miles in a year! Don't be afraid to repeat weeks! You will become addicted. After using c25k I went to bridgeto10k. Then I went to runkeeper's apps training programs, beginners half marathon. I love that I wake up and it tells me how many miles I should do today. It's…

Bump yea

Great post. Do you take your bulletproof coffee before exercising? I do 5-6 mile runs and usually just have water and coffee with coconut creamer (SO) before I run. I worry about GI issues during the run. maybe TMI, but interested in advice.

Amazing job! The weight you lost is equal to my 5'5 13 year old! Great job!

I relate to this. I came from a dysfunctional family with women who all had weight issues. Let's just say at 13 I started using dexatrim diet pills. So my self esteem was never very strong. But this post brought back a painful memory. I was pregnant with my first child. My mother in law sat me down and explained to me how…

This! Very important to get checked. Before I got diagnosed I wore sweaters in 90d weather!!

Me too, except I'm 5'9

I did c25k and ran 3 5ks this year. I finished bridge 210k and now am doing Jeff gaudettes beginner half marathon program thru runkeeper. I have 2 weeks left of the training program. I'm seriously slow and don't have the confidence yet to sign up for a half marathon race. I know I could finish it but like I said, I have to…

Bump for later! I so relate

Congratulations! You inspire me!

I feel your pain! I've committed myself to log everything! The good, the bad and the ugly! My goal is to just be aware and not gain my usual 10 lbs from Halloween til new years! Just keep logging! Good luck to us!

I'm in til new year!

This! I did b210k after c25k which I finished about June 2012. After I finished b210k I downloaded the runkeeper beginner half marathon training program. I need a program that tells me what to run on a specific day. I just plan to keep moving forward. I agree that any bad eatting pattern has hurt my runs. I just repeat a…

I'm an overprotective mom of two girls. Please be careful posting your age and photos on the Internet. Most especially don't give your real name or where you live to anyone! :flowerforyou:

Very impressive! -2.4 in a week! WTG!

I'm in! I'm gonna weigh in tomorrow. Ill have more time ;)

Love this because I'm slow as a turtle, but I can now run for 120+ minutes. A year ago I could run 3! This is what I needed to inspire me, thanks!

I am just giving a online hug to the OP. you are going to be ok :flowerforyou:

Very well done! There is a group/forum on MFP called long distance runners. Those guys are marathoners and serious athletes. I've gotten great advice from them and the runners world.com website. I'm training for my first 10k this spring. Thanks for posting your success. I love running and I couldn't even run 3 minutes…

The best victory I've read in a long time! Think of all the money you'll save in the next 40 years or so not having to buy medicine. Not to mention how this healthier lifestyle is pushing back the clock! You are an inspiration!

I'm on vacation in Miami this week. I weighed in at 163.5 last thurs. missed sat weigh in and I dread the next weekends weigh in because I am truly enjoying the restaurants here. I'm making wise choices but you know how eatting out goes.:grumble:

This is what I do. I take their food, push it around the plate, divert attention elsewhere, say "this is delicious ", divert attention again, say I'm full, and take platter myself to sink. How to divert attention - give them compliments (suck up to them). "your fill in the blank is gorgeous, where did you get it" Most…

It was a stressful week. Stress = me eatting chocolate. Did not eat clean this week and I feel it. :( Ultimate goal weight: 155lbs Height: 5'9 Starting weight: 170 lbs 9/22 weight 167 9/29: 168 lbs 10/6: 166 lbs 10/13. 168 lbs 10/27. 163.8 11/5. 167:sad: 11/10. 165.8 Pounds lost for challenge: 4.2 Neck: 13 / 13.5/ 13.25/…
