I find that a small cup of natural applesauce cures my cravings for sweets.

9/3 was great for me too! I was and still am sore from my ab / cardio kickboxing workout 9/2, but I was able to jog 5 minutes straight last night for the first time since high school (13 years ago). I'm loving reading everyone's updates as well - keep up the great work!

I ran for 5 minutes straight yesterday. Considering I haven't run since high school (which was 13 years ago) I definitely consider that a victory!

You are amazing and inspiring!

9/2 was not a great day for me, but somehow I managed to be under my calorie goal. I splurged on Burger King for lunch, which I did end up feeling guilty about, but I made sure to work extra hard doing some cardio kickboxing and a stability ball ab workout on Youtube. I'm doing day 2 of Couch to 5K tonight!

9/1 was a good day for me as well. I started day 1 of C25K and worked in some free weights with my arms afterwards.

I had a great day yesterday! Was under my calorie goal and did 3.1 miles in under 45 minutes. I even ran some of it - about 3 minutes total, but it's a start. Starting Couch to 5K on Sunday.

Hi all! I'm Sarah. I work at a desk all day and combine that with some unhealthy fast food habits, the pounds have slowly crept up on me over the past 10 years. I enjoy walking and am going to start Couch to 5K on 9/1. I currently walk no less than 2.5 miles per day, but I also need to work in some strength and core…

Feel free to add me! I'm looking to lose between 40-50.

Thanks. I am aware, and am familiar with the ways of the interwebz. Just wanted to get people's recommendations on something that would taste GOOD and not be awful for me. I don't go to TGIF often, so wanted some recommendations.

Eeeeeekkkk! Nothing like a case of the hot@ss to jump-start your diet!

^ What she said. I'll have what she's having.

Some of those facts are scary! And the sodium levels are insane on most everything. No wonder the US has such bad heart / high blood pressure issues.

WTF indeed! Luckily I'm not allergic to much, but that's crazy!

Thanks for replies! I think I am going to try the Sizzling Steak & Spinach - about 500 calories.

I just started up again as well - anyone can add me, it's scottastic219. Thanks!

I'd love to join the group, but I can't figure out how to find it. If you'd add me, that would be great. My username is scottastic219. Thanks!

I'm looking for Fuelband friends too! My username is scottastic219 if anyone wants to add me!

That is so awesome, get it girl! I have been doing Zumba 3 times a week at my local Y for about two months and have lost about 5 pounds.

I will join the group! I always start it and then slack off after a few days. Let's do 30 days straight! Now, I just need to buy a new scale to replace my old one which all of the sudden told me I weight 30 lbs less that I usually do. :laugh:

You are not alone! I have very similar starting weights and goals. I know how hard it is to stay on track too. Hang in there - keep fighting the good fight!

Hi Kendra! You'll need to buy the workout DVD Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred. I found it at my local Target, but here's a link to Amazon... http://www.amazon.com/Jillian-Michaels-30-Day-Shred/dp/B00127RAJY . You will also need some hand weights - I would recommend purchasing 3lbs. It's a short workout, but it will leave you…

I SO did not want to do it this morning, but I did anyway. I am on day 3 of level 1. Haven't lost any weight yet this week, have actually gained but we will see what the results are after the first week. I need to remember to not get frustrated!

This is so inspiring! Great job... makes me want to get off my butt and work out even harder!

Bump! Awesome Idea guys!

Just finished Level 1, Day 1! Let's see how much I CAN'T move tomorrow. :laugh:

Count me in! Looking to lose a few lbs for a wedding in July... gotta fit into my dress!
