You will see results either way. I never followed the diet and actually did not eat that great the first month and had pretty good results. So can only imagine the results if I following a health diet. Good luck on the program.

I felt the same with the walking half way through I was wondering when am I going to run. But they are warming you up for the 15 min. free form run in week 4. So far the app is working for me. I know it is a bit different than the traditional C25K schedule.

The point was not to finish any earlier. I was feeling pretty good, not sore and was looking forward to another run.

Give it some time. The second month was when I really started seeing results. I am sure you will start to see results soon. Good luck.

Yes, they are great. I agree with all the above MFPers. It also inspires me to beat some of my burn and keeps me accountable! I have the Polar FT4, and worth every penny.

I too am addicted to soda. I try to drink seltzer. iced tea(no sugar), or even a diet soda(never liked it before but if I am really craving soda, yes). I try to limit myself to 2-3 real sodas a week. It is tough. I use to drink 2-3 a day. If you can fit it in your calorie goals then I say it is ok.GL

Thanks I will have to try one after work.

Red bull is awesome. I say drink it. If it gets you going in the morning or whenever. I am not a big coffee guy either. Didn't know they made monster with zero calories.

Hey one reason I joined MFP was to compete in some obstacle courses and 5K/10Ks too. Sent you a friend request, add me if you like.

I agree with jcdoerr. Sorness will be gone in about a week. Not sure if anything else will really help but time itelf to heal. I guess protein would be beneficial to help build muscle and stretching. Same thing happened to me. GL

I just completed Insanity this past Sunday. I lost about 16 lbs and feel great. I found it a bit daunting at first too. I was exhausted after the warm up on day one and sore fore the about a week and a half. Once you get past that first week the hard part is over and you improve every week. If you do the program you will…

I started doing zombie C25K last week. Starting week 2 now. So far I think it is a nice app, look forward to the story too lol. I use runtastic too to track my runs. Sent you a FR. Any other new runners can add me if they like too. Gook luck.

I just started using runtastic. So far I like it. I wish it would seperate my running and other cardio workouts as seperate lines instead of combining them when they post to MFP. I didn't know there was a squat and sit up app in runtastic? I will have to take a look.

I too love soda and have for the most part cut back drinking it. I have 2-3 a week now as opposed to 2-3 a day. I think diet soda was always worse but must admit if I am craving a coke I have had a few diet cokes in the past few weeks. I am sure in moderation it’s not a big deal or even normal soad is fine as long as you…

I know what I am having for dinner. Whats wrong with a grilled cheese. It can be healthy. You might as well shut off the TV and stop reading, and cut off the internet connection.

I am actually finished with Insanity this Sunday. I don’t want to lose my momentum so started C25K this week also as the first week seems to be a light workout. I had the same feeling about what should I do next after Insanity, I know I will not be doing it again for at least a few months. I was thinking I may buy T25 in…

I have been doing Insanity also and am on my last week. I try and do the programs right after work about 6pm but have been doing them about 9pm the past few days. I do feel a bit run down when I do the late workouts. I do try to eat near my calorie goal and try and eat back some calories also. I think the program is taking…

Just started C25K this week. Just finished day 2 today.

All added. Thanks for support.

Bump.

I am almost done with Insanity, have about a week left. I have lost about 13 lbs so far and eat back most of my calories. I usually try to leave about 200 to 300. Didn't see a huge weight loss my first month but my second month was better. I definitely feel better and have dropped a pant size, also have more energy. I Say…

I finish Insanity in about a week and a half and was wondering the same thing. I decided to do C25K just so I can be active and transition into something else. Would love to get Focus T25 since the workouts are 25 min and that would work better in my day but rather not spend the money right now.

I am starting on 8/5. Looking for a few friends to keep me in check C25K. Add me if you like. Good luck everyone.

Logging every day. Add me if you like. So far it has been keeping me motivated.

I’m jealous. Love new Orleans. The food is great. I would say, jambalaya, crawfish etoufee, fried catfish, and don’t forget a Po Boy. I have been there twice and want to go back. Can’t really remember the restaurants; think I went to Mothers and Johnny PoBoys. You will find a ton of great restaurants just by wandering…

Nice, I live about two blocks from Red Star.

I am an engineer and got a kick out of it. Thanks for the post.

I do go to Starbucks alot and get an espresso now. Its cheap and almost no calories. Hate spending so much on a coffee or drink a simialr drink. I did use to love Mcdonalds, but have not had any for about 7 weeks. Gotta say I don't miss it that much.

Geek checking in. Love this thread! Here are some of my interests and there are too many to name. I am an engineer also and some of this probably inspired me to go that route. I am a huge movie/TV fan in general, really anything. Love, Star Wars, X-Files, Star Trek(always second to Star Wars though), LotR, Game of Thrones,…

I am a soon to be dad. That is one of the main reasons I want to get back into shape, I would like to be healthy and active for my family. I had a pretty bad soda habit. I think I struggle with that more that food. Add me if you like. Good luck to you.
