Thanks for the welcome!

I started a post about needing help with a running goal and someone suggeted that I join this group. So here I am. I started to follow the The Couch-to-5K Running Plan last night. It went well. I didn't find it too difficult but at the same time felt like I was able to get a good workout. I'm not sure if I will try it…

So I started the training program from The Couch-to-5K Running Plan today. It went well. Wasn't too hard but wasn't a piece of cake either. I think it will work. I like the advice from Banks too though so I may try doing that once in awhile too. Who knows maybe I'll be able to run for more then a few minutes at a time with…

Start of challenge :205lbs Last week: 203lbs This week: 200.4lbs So I'm down almost three pounds this week which is great right?!?! Wrong! Not that I wouldn't be really happy with 3 lbs if it was my best but I had been down to 197.6 on Thursday. I was prepared to gain a little bit on Sunday becuase I knew that it would…

I just found a website called The Couch-to-5K Running Plan. Go to http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml if you want to try a running goal too.

Well I started working towards my goal the other night. I tried running outside because, you're right, it is a lot nicer, but I have shin splints from playing volleyball back in the day and the pavement doesn't help. I may try to go on one of the trails around town but I had the jogging stroller with my little one so I…

Hi There, So here is my fitness goal for the end of the summer...back in high school we had to run for twelve minutes and us girls got 100% if we completed 24 laps around the basketball court in that time. Although I'm not very athletic I set my mind to it and worked hard training during our gym classes. I was the only…

They are still great even without the chocolate chips. Although if I had them I would still put them in for that extra little melt in your mouth taste. So Yummy!

Thanks for that post. I too just finished weaning (I've got a biter) and am feeling a little on the smaller side now. Reading this post made me feel much better about it all.

I don' t have any chocolate chips on hand. Do you suppose it would still taste good without and if so how many cals would I be saving?

Starting Weight : 214lbs Current Weight : 205lbs Summer Goal: 180lbs Overall Goal: Between 150lbs and 160lbs Loss so far: 9lbs It feels good to put some goals down in writting. And the accountability will be a positive thing also. Good luck to all and thanks for the support and motivation.

Me too! Not that it's a good thing but it is nice to know that I am not the only one who slacked off for a few days. It's also nice to know that we are all going to get back on track again too though.

I plan my meals out a month at a time. I just joined this website a couple of weeks ago so I didn't plan meals quite as healthy as I should have but I will next month. I find it helps with the grocery bill because I know what I am going to need for the next two weeks of groceries when I go instead of just randomly buying…
