At first I thought I've the mental block but then I realised that I am actually really excited to run each time. Right until I hit that wall.

I have not made any significant changes to anything. I eat enough, around 1800 calls and that's considering I am pretty sedentary outside of my workouts. I was willing to write it off when it was just a couple of days but now it's been a week. It's a little disheartening. But a relieve to hear that you've experienced…

The paces are relatively similar. I am a slow runner and when I was doing 2.5/.75 I was at around 11.30 (average) per mile. Today's 13.03/mile, last Friday's 12.22.

This. And also for me, I'd have to wash and blow dry my hair twice.

- the fact that I can run - wondering if I am going to hit a PB (I did today :happy: ) - the sweat rolling down into my sports bra (I know how that sounds but I just do. Feels like job well done). - the achy calves afterwards - the me time - the sudden rush of adrenaline Just so many things!

Pinch, pash and punch. Sorry, just really want to be in physical contact with her.

Love running! Run so that I can eat my ice cream everyday, run so that I won't turn into the high-strung cat of my profile photo, run so that I don't go on a rampage and kill everyone in sight (tbh, I think my killing act would be selective. Do you feel feel lucky, punk? Well, do ya?) Although I can achieve all of that…

Alone Again (Naturally) - Gilbert O'Sullivan Always on My Mind - Willie Nelson Bad Day - Daniel Powter Cat's In The Cradle - Harry Chapin Cold As You - Taylor Swift How Could An Angel Break My Heart - Toni Braxton How To Save A Life -The Fray It Ends Tonight - AAR Landslide Learning to Breathe - Switchfoot Mad World Move…

I eat ice cream and desserts everyday, I make awkward jokes, I behave inappropriately, I have a stressed-out cat as one of my profile photos. Do you really need more reasons to add me? But oh yes, I am also supportive.

Bad: I was running and my underwear fell down. Like all the way down, almost to my thigh and scrunched up there. The only thing keeping them up was my running pants. I was far from my house and there was just nowhere around that I can adjust them with anything resembling privacy. I walk all the way back with my panties…

Are you eating enough?

I need to tag this thread because, um, it epitomises how the society objectif... Heck with that. I am just here for the show.

Lol! I think she puts it best. :laugh:

I got that guy, too. He's apparently French. Or so he claimed in order to excuse his 'bad english'. My reply: dude, you're creepy in all languages. I reported him multiple times and he has a few accounts, actually.

Don't panic! This was yesterday and all the cake is gone now :-( sad times I think you'll agree, but I will remember to mail you a piece next time :-) [/quote] No more cake? Fine, I am going to go eat my ice cream instead. ETA: One of my friends , a guy, also like to tell me this "god, you're more muscular than me. Maybe…

Did this happen today? As in you ate cake today? Because if you did and didn't send me any, I don't think we can be friends. Especially when I need them so badly today. My friends and family are like that, too. My mum tries to talk to me about all the weight loss 'ways' she saw on TV and my friends...SMH. They are a…

Sorry, but you're the only one that can kick your own *kitten* for this purpose. I know, that's not very helpful but it's the truth. "Change happens when the pain of staying the same is greater than the pain of change.” I went through the same bout of 'lethargy' a couple of months ago but then I remembered my goals and all…

This. And I workout. Just a walk or a 'real' workout. Anything. I find that I tend to binge on the days when I don't workout. Not sure why. And also, going on 'challenges'. Like, for example, I binge on cashews when I am stress and the likes. So recently, I challenge myself to 30 days without them. This is still a new idea…

This may come off as curt, but, you really just have to commit to your goals. None of my friends are into this type of lifestyle that I am in, they are more into partying and generally the 'college lifestyle'. But I know what I want, what my goals are. So I do my workout when I should, I eat sensibly most days. That said,…

Would love to be a mentor, too, if anyone think that I would be the right fit for them. My impressive qualifications/facts: I am a foodie and love my desserts (especially ice cream and cakes) I fit them all in whenever I want them but I don't believe one has to adhere to their calorie limit every single freaking day I eat…

Can definitely relate. I lost about 28lbs (relatively little but then again I am short) in 2012 and was rather close to my GW. I then got complacent, thinking I've got it. The weight creeps back on. Not all the way but still. So this time, I am not going to just reach my goal and that is it. Instead, I am setting goals to…

Whoops, forgot to check back. All added. Yes, definitely. I am counting down the days till I can lift again.

So...hooked a couple of friends, success?…

Froyo is a whole different category and if anyone call them ice cream, there's going to be a duel at dawn. But, I do like them, too. :laugh:

Calories out more than calories in. That's the basic idea. You can lose weight (assuming that's your goal) without working out (as long as calories out>calories in) but then of course, you would be missing out on all the benefits. I'd highly recommend working out especially for the extra calories, i.e. you get to eat more.…

For me, it's not finding the time to workout that is hard but sometimes I do feel too tired to go after going to class, revision, etc. However, I can fit in about 6 days of workout per week (exception being Thursday when I have class till 8 at night, so that's my rest day). Planning ahead is the key. You won't be perfect…

Though I echo the idea of just don't track for the day, I'd be more than happy to identify the Chinese dishes. Unless you're not going to go for Chinese food. If so, I will just sit silently and salivate at the food porn. ETA: If you do really need me, just send me a PM.

Here's me. Have gained a little since these photos but still around the same range. ETA: Darn, the photos are a little too big but I have no idea how to resize it now that I have already posted it, so...

I know how you feel. Moved thousand of miles to London last year and was alone for months! No family here, no friends, no partner, nothing. Eat alone, walk alone, workout alone and sometimes I even talk to myself out loud. :laugh: Now finally made some IRL friends but we don't really share the same interests. It's tough…
