I also have a lot to lose and want to get back to running. I've never been a good runner, but I'm always proud of myself when I finished. My sister and I are going to run our first 5k together in November, so it's back to C25K for me. I will check out the runtastic app-

This is amazing! Great job!!!

Agreed :)

I have a delicious potato leek soup recipe for the crock pot- it's perfect because it's ready when you get home from work and it's thick enough to feel filling- perfect for a cold Maine winter :) Place the following in a medium crock pot: 4 large potatoes, peeled and chopped 4 leeks, washed and thinly sliced, white part…

bagel thins with laughing cow light cheese wedge or whole wheat english muffins with same

incredible- great job!

I am a huge stress eater. Sometimes chewing gum with a strong flavor (cinnamon!) helps- or brushing your teeth, if you're someplace where you can do that conveniently. I also stuck a post it on my computer at work that says, "If you're not hungry enough to eat an apple, you're not hungry."

Here's my recipe: Lighter Banana Muffins- yield 12 muffins 4 medium bananas, mashed 1/2 cup splenda 1 egg 2 TBSP margarine 3 TBSP unsweetened applesauce 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp baking powder 3/4 cup white flour 3/4 cup whole wheat flour Mash the bananas and combine with sugar and egg. Melt margarine and add it to the…

Hi all, I'm sorry I've been MIA this week. I was rear- ended getting onto the highway the other day and I am fine, but pretty sore. I am back to logging calories, but I haven't worked out in 3 days. I'm so sorry to be messing up the August challenge for all of you- I will post my favorite recipe tonight- keep working hard,…

not a good weigh in for me. gained 2.4 lbs. hoping it's water weight :ohwell: sorry, everyone.

drinking that last glass of water... lunges finished and under calorie goal- weekends are so hard to stay on track!

great walk!

water, push ups, and under calorie goal yesterday- couldn't figure out how to finish the food diary for the day from my blackberry...

Up and Downs and water- check Somehow, under calorie goal

I logged this yesterday, but forgot to post it here- 9 glasses of water, 50 crunches + walk, and under calorie goal :)

crunches done...

That's awesome! Good work!

15 glasses of water! Wow! I would be swimming in it :)

8 glasses of water and extra mile completed- now time for DINNER! :) And I am well under calorie goal for the day :)

Starting this challenge at 230 lbs. 100 jumping jacks and 9 glasses of water, done. Finished logging for the day and came in under calorie goal- good work today, everyone! :)

100 jumping jacks done on lunch break- I am embarrassed to say I got winded doing this- and I thought it was going to be simple :) I'll get the rest of my workout in after work. Have a great day, everyone!

Are we supposed to weigh in on any particular day each week?

Amazing! Great job!

My goal for August is also 10 lbs- I really want to lose 45-55 more lbs by my next birthday (Jan. 23), and this would be a good start :)

This is beautiful.

You look great- way to go!

You guys are incredible :) Time for you to post some new profile pictures, my friend! Can't wait to see you guys this weekend.

Thanks everyone. I take Zyrtec and Flonase right now. The Flonase helps a lot, and the Zyrtec works better than anything else I have tried, but maybe I should try the Netti Pot and the Zyrtec D. I am tired of sinus infections and feeling exhausted all the time!

Incredible- good job!

CONGRATULATIONS! I started at 161 and I'm working toward 150- I CANNOT WAIT to get to Onederland!!!! Great job!!!!!!!! (And I don't have kids either, so I'm sure I'll call it the happiest day since my wedding day too, when I finally get there).
