Are you talking about my kids? They are full of compassion to overweight people. I am too - I know from personal experience that being overweight sucks. Otherwise we would not see tons of people on this site trying hard to lose weight . And it breaks my heart when nobody teaches young overweight kids that they should stop…

Common, let's not start talking about inner beauty, soul, and personality... I know some overweight people who are smart, kind, and have a lot of other great traits. Some of them are good friends of mine, and few I truly love. Obviously I meant physical beauty and attractiveness, which for most people correlates with…

I would be concerned too. My kids are very skinny and still I remind them to move more and eat less otherwise they'll get fat = unhealthy. By the way while I agree slim does not equal beautiful, I am yet to see a beautiful fat person. Healthy weight is a necessary, but not a sufficient condition for both being healthy and…

Look at Jilian Michaels videos - some are available on youtube for free. I did her 30 day shred and it worked great. Even though it worked i realized i do not like working out by myself and prefer some company. However, you might like it. All you need is a set of weigths. The only set I have at home is 5lbs, so I used some…

Your lungs should not be "on fire". In fact, you should be able to talk. Slow down, if it's so bad. My first run intervals were barely faster than my walk ones.

It's so cold today (almost freezing) that I decided to run in a gym. Four miles on the treadmill. Pretty slow, but did W5D1.

Week5 Day1 is done. Not a great run after a long day at wark. But i did it!

Thanks! My phone caera is pretty bad, but i like taking a picture or two for memories. :) Welc i ne to the group and good luck on this joutney! It will be fun!

Hate running in the summer! Luckily we do not have that many hot days, but still... I switchto treadmill in August. ..

Week 4 Day 3 run is done! Nice easy run in perfect weather! :) Week 5 is ahead :)

Way to go! :) I was planning to run tonight, but git too tired. Did and abs class in the morning, cleaned the house, and did an hour and a half of gardening... Running is postponed till tomorrow! :)

Everyone had bad runs. You know what they say: "Bad runs make good runners". Hopefully the next one will be better! :)

I like minimalist shoes - Kinvaras and Mizuno Wave.

Week4 Day 2 is done! Nice and easy 3.5 mi run! :)

W4D2 is done! 3.5 miles nice and easy!

How fast do you walk? And for how long?

Slow down! And then slow down evenmore! At what speed are you running?

Week 4 Day 1 is done. Pretty slow :( Felt tired and did not like the new route - hilly and not good looking... Well, I had a whole week of great runs last week :)

I like your attitude - already looking at b210k! :)

Way to go - half a mile is a great achievement!

Nice! Keep pushing - you have just a little bit left!

Week 4 Day 1 done. Was not a very good run - took an unfamiliar route which happened to be pretty hilly, so I went pretty slow. Well, I had a whole great week last week! :)

Welcome! I finished c25k few weeks ago and train for a 10k now. It looks like a lot of people are doing bridge to 10k from ZenLab here. I have a 10 week plan based on one of the Hal Higdon plans.

Week 3 Day 3 is done - had a great 4 mi run tonight! Ready for Week 4 :)

Nice! You are amazingly fast! :)
