runkeeper, strava...its all about preference

....there is a NROL4W group on here.. I suggest you go there for support and ideas...its a very helpful group..and Good luck..I am on Week3..and doing workout B today..

I live by the 80/20 rule..as long as I am healthy 80% of the time..its ok to slack a bit the rest of the time. I log M-F...and leave Saturday/Sunday...if we are going out. If we stay home..I will log..

once you start...there is no way to re-shuffle your music..so do all that before you start. Great job..I am also doing the C25K...already did the original one..but still cant quite run a 5K...Good luck...

ha...its funny how much we get our heads into these stories...

after marrying my ex..I gained 60 pounds...now..lost 40 pounds..and happy.. I am now more educated as far as what to eat, how much, and when..so I cant forsee my weight going back up unless its a medical issue..but then I already have several..and now weight can be controlled..

I remember when I first went to the doctor..she diagnosed me with a metabolic syndrome. she never mentioned weight..but put me on medication..i lost weight without trying..she then said i want you to lose more....but here are the tools. I think that is more important..having the tools to deal with your body..rather than…

the key is moderation. i have 2 teenagers and i make stuff for them..as well as for my husband. i figure homemade hot wings is better than storebought. I do teach my children about healthy eating and moderation...its teaching them early on..and as far as hubby..he doesnt care what he eats..as long as its good.. with…

wow....just wow..its sad when you have more experience than the person who had some sort of education.

Its not always what you eat. I have Insulin Resistance..so I gather fat around my belly. I may or may not lose it..but its not because of teh way I eat...I eat fairly well 80% of the time..but because of age and metabolic issues..I dont think it will be super flat

I dont think there is a way to skip forward...I run outside..so there is no issue with the speeding up and slowing down...Unless its icy outside...I plan on always running outside..

once a month..i rely more on the tape measure and how my clothes are fitting

great job..I finished last week..now doing the c25k version cause I still cant run a straight 5 K

I agree..no lifting heavy and do as much cardio as possible..that will surely drop the weight...cause thats whats important..who cares about muscles...it will drop the number on the scale.

We bake cookies for our neighbors. My parents did this.but with Indian sweets...to all of our family and neighbors. We all get new outfits. (outside of hubby) and go to Candlelight service..then dinner..the the girls get to open on present. Once everyone is asleep...Santa puts out all is stuff around 3-4 AM..We get up…

nice...i finished season 1..but still cant run a 5K..so happy this came out...

Cardio builds endurance..and helps build heart and lungs..thats what I do it..and I love being outdoors..

I agree..you go to work out..but I dont agree with the whole sweating bit..I dont sweat..I get a little moist..but I dont sweat..never have..I dont think I ever will. So you cant gauge how hard someone is working out by the amount of sweat..Heck some people sweat changing their minds

I plan to do a 5K on Thanksgiving..so it will give me about 300 extra calories...But I usually cook pretty healthy on the holidays..so I plan to eat what I want..and log everything..if I go over..oh well..

well since the update..mine gets stuck on the last song..so when a mission is about to end..it repeats a song 3 times..and its annyoing. I only have 1 true mission left and 2 supply missions. But I plan on repeating all of them without the chases to see if I can better my time...and once I do that..I move on to a 10 K..and…

^^^^ my family loves these..they never last more than 2 days.

real age:44 virtual age:27 life expectancy:92 (91.8...close enough)

..from a co-worker:"you only eat salads right....cause I cant do that..I need real food"...really...? like that real donut or that real bagel you are choking down. my mom:" ...here..try this top on..it will fit you.. " it was an XL I wear between a medium and a small me:...."mom...i cant fit into that..I have lost weight…

Yea..I hear ya...I found out my TDEE is around 1700 and I have a very sedentary job....So i am back at 1700...and was wondering why i was starving eating 1500 calories..

There is a learning curve associated with eating healthier. It does get easier with time..as does estimating calories while eating out. I rarely go out to lunch anymore..just cause I could blow my whole day. But next friday..its a co-workers last day....and Yes..I will eat what I want..but will load up on salad and water...

yup ...not addicted..but then I think answers will differ depending on how long they have been on MFP..I have been here for 1.5 yrs and understand the relationship with food..

I agree..i am willing to pay. wondering where the story will pick up...but seeing how i really am not conditioned to run more than 2 minutes straight...this will be a good program for me...
