  • Besides pictures that I see.. my job is what woke me up. I work for a cardiologist and seeing patients my age come in with diabetes, heart disease, heart failure, with their own choices playing a big role in these diseases...started to scare the crap out of me.. especially with a family history of all of the above. Really…

  • I'm running my first 5K in September too! I'm in week 4 of C25K and it is getting hard (for me), but am really wanting to be successful. I'm a lifetime yo-yo'er and I'm tired of it! Best wishes on your 5K in Sept. Are you doing it by yourself, or do you have any friends getting ready with you?

  • I started C25K a few weeks ago and it is awesome!!! Have lost 30 lbs and need to lose another 15, but have stalled. Hoping this can kick up the weight loss a notch!

  • I agree that is the BEST feeling in the world. I've never posted the "before" pics before, but I'm thinking of doing it too. I think it is a great way to keep you focused and consistent. I never want to go back to the "before" again!!

  • You can totally do this!! Keep your calories at the 1200 mark, and be super strict with that.. drink lots of water, and exercise! If you aren't used to regular exercise, a brisk walk every day should cut it for ya. Good luck, and you can do it!!

  • Welcome! I have been on this site for 3 months now and love it. The key to success is to really use the site!! When I first started I didn't log all of my food, didn't really interact all that much and just kind of logged in when I remembered. Once I got strict with myself, I really started seeing success and it feels…

  • My "usual" way is to be "all or nothing." I get super extreme when dieting, but then slowly return to not keeping track of what I'm eating, or have deprived myself so much that I go nutty! Or eat way too many "diet" type foods, i.e. lean cuisine, healthy choice, etc...get sick of the same thing over and over, but fear…

  • Another thing to consider is what you have set for your activity level. I chose "sedentery" even though I work as a nurse. It gives me a lot more calories for "lightly acitve" and I was not losing weight with it set up like that...
