Is it wrong that I look at very overweight people on the bus as my motivation to get back on track so I don't end up looking like them?

I had to tighten it up - and it wasn't because I wasn't wearing my thicker winter jacket. I hadn't used my fuel belt since the fall. 2) I wore jeans on Friday I haven't worn in a year, and the last time I…

  • I am definitely a serial starter. I think I am start number 5 right now. I figured loosing weight was cheaper then buying larger clothes again. I started again first part of December when I tried to wear one of my long sleeved white blouses and it was to tight over the stomach. I"m down almost 10 pounds since then and wore…

  • I have an in-person 5K on November 6. Provided restrictions don't increase again in the fall and it's cancelled. It will only be my second on this year. There has been other local ones, but they are Sundays and I do not race on Sundays. My next big on is my virtual BOSTON marathon. Only way I will ever be able to do…
  • This is so me!!! I call my extreme weight gain in the past year my "pandemic not-running" weight gain. Instead of stress-running I've been stress-eating. Buying the larger size clothes has cost me a lot and made me stress-eat more. I've been getting better this week, but I need to keep at it. Seeing the scales Sunday at…
  • I did some searching and found this group I am only 42 and believe with some signs I am seeing, I am perimenopause. I am seeing changes in my monthly (not so monthly now) cycle and a lot of weight gain. I need some support and help.
  • Jenny - I run it on my own in my own area. My Garmin tracks my run. My Garmin is connected to phone and my runs are uploaded on the app there. I would then send them in the screen shot off of my app that shows I did it.
  • I got in!!! I'm running the virtual BOSTON MARATHON!!!!! They opened the virtual to 70,000 people - no qualifying times required. That means everyone like me, who has no hope of ever running it in person tried. We crashed the website right at the time that the registration opened. It took 25 minutes and refreshing and…
  • Jenny, sorry to hear your having issues with your family. I know how hard that can be. When my Uncle Garth died last year, we heard it third party.

  • Jenny - They are now saying with more vaccinations coming up, everyone that wants it will have their first dose by the end of June. My body is feeling the fitness routine I am forcing it back into. I have a dull ache all over. It's a combination of that and being over 40 I think. Yesterday and today I ran on my lunch…
  • Jenny, I havenèt been doing much of anything all winter. Blame the pandemic. I am. It will be a bit yet before I qualify for a vaccine. They are at 80+ for the general public.
