Oh, WOW. Just wow. You must be really tall!! You definitely do not look over 300 in that second picture!

I'm impressed your doxies can go that far! My moms mini-doxi goes around the block twice and he's about done for the day.

Whole-heartedly agree!!

ENELL!! I was exactly your size when I started running. Enell sports bras were the only thing stopping me from having 2 black eyes after each run. Seriously, do yourself a huge favor and get yourself an Enell sports bra!!

WE MOVED!!! We're off the coast of France now! Thanks cap'n! Looks like we're bringing up the rear though, lets get burnin!! measly burn for me today: 7/4: 319

Well options are certainly not as clearcut as monogamy V. divorce. There is a cultural change afoot, I swear it. You should read the NYT article about Dan Savage today. Anyway, I'm off topic, good luck!

I started at 225! You'll get there!
-
Shooting for an initial goal of 150. Never been that small (never been the weigh I am right now actually!) so I don't know how it will work on my frame. I may readjust my goal when I get there.

?? Since when does marriage mean monogamy? Not for everybody! Not by a long shot.

He hasn't yet... our boat is at a standstill... hope he's just gone for the weekend!

blisters: duct tape your foot where you think you're going to get them BEFORE you get them. Works wonders. I do it everytime I go backpacking, never failed me. Also, synthetic socks, not cotton. Slightly more expensive but just save them for the activities that are giving you blisters. If you're getting them between your…

The one thing I really remember was stress eating (in grad school, my worst eating habits are from school related stress, apparently other stressers don't affect me the same way) an entire large papa johns hawaiian pizza with that butter garlic sauce, FOR DINNER. As in I also had breakfast and lunch that day. And if my…

None for me today, sorry guys. Taking a sick day. Hopefully get something in tomorrow!

I used to have lower back pain after my runs and it sometimes didn't show up until the day after. I don't know exactly what caused it but I blame a combo of too much boob/inadequate sports bra and the fact that as I got tired my posture got bad, I wasn't standing up straight/shoulders back anymore, I started to hunch…
-
That is exactly correct! Thats how MFP was designed to work! If you want to use it differently, please do but MFP is designed for you to eat back those calories.
-
Eat em! You will still lose, scouts honor. MFP sets you with an automatic deficit so anything you burn you get to eat back. I eat back all of my exercise calories and I've lost 50 lbs already. (you will find people on this site will adamently disagree on this subject but MFP was designed for you to eat your exercise cals…

A couple of ladies at my first half did this and they finished at the same time as me! They were just much faster on their running intervals. I really prefer to run longer stretches though.
-
Do it!! Even if you walk part of it, do it!! Its the most motivating thing in the world to finish something like that. If you're worried about it find a "fun run" type that invites walkers and runners, then you won't feel pressured.
-
I take a short walk break every 3 miles when I'm doing 6 or more. I used to feel like it was cheating but I got over that. It improves my overall times and I get less stressed out about long runs before I go out.
-
I've been working really hard on my form but it is still way less than perfect. Do you feel like the 5 fingers helped with your form? I have a pair but never worked up to using them for big miles, I love my brooks too much...

Thank you!!

Oh, sorry! I hadn't seen it yet, now I'm curious too.. Here's the link for anyone else who didn't see it: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/277355-row-the-world-rules-and-questions-please-bump capitan? What say ye? Also my calorie burn is 1200 for today, I'll track my cals over the weekend and we can see how flexible…
-
bump!
-
checking if my ticker posts correctly...
-
Found my schedule online, I'm in! Will be a good extra motivator to not skip runs.
-
bump, gonna check my training schedule when I get home... I might be game.
-
At 5'7 and ~200 lbs I was a size 14/16 and still had plenty of curves!
-
Our capitan (o capitan!) will let us know how he wants us to check in once he gets the official spreadsheet for tracking all of us. I'm off for the weekend! I'll try to keep track of my calorie burns but won't be logging in. Hope you all have a great 4th!
