As of today, I finally hit a healthy BMI for the first time since I was probably 10 years old! (turned 54 last weekend) Now I need to tackle maintenance for the firts time. Suggestions welcome!

I started running in January (for the first time in my life!), and I trained with a group from my gym using a run/walk method for my first 5K. I ran my first 5K in April, and was so psyched that I ran a second one on Memorial Day. I wanted to keep up the running, but was worried that I wouldn't keep it up without training…

I've done the PALA twice, and am now going for the bronze award. It can help you stay motivated to continue being active. Good luck!

I started running in January with a group from the gym I belong to. I'm doing interval training, and the program was basically a "couch to 5K" program. I joined the 1/1 group, and that is running for a minute, then walking for a minute. (That's after the 5 min walk to warm up, and another 5 min cool down.) I've never run…

I just ran my first 5K ever today, and it was an awsome feeling! I'm planning to do my next run in a race on Memorial Day. I'm not fast, but just being able to do it for the first time in my life was a great feeling!

I can understand where you are coming from. I started out at the gym a year ago, and I srted out slowly. I've never been physically active, and I have back/neck issues, so I let the trainer start me off with a modified program. It seemed like I wasn't doing much to start with, but as I kept it up, I was able to slowly add…

Today's weigh-in: 174.6 - so I'm down 1.2 this week. I won't quite make my goal for the challenge, but I keep moivng in the right direction anyway. I'm in for the next challenge as well.

Weighing in at 178.4 this week, so down 1.6 :smile: Life has been extremely stressful lately, and exercise has been virtally non-existant, so I'm very thankful for the loss. Have a great week everyone :drinker:
-
Weighin for this week-180.0. I'm not surprised it's up .4- I let myself splurge a little on my birthday :blushing: I'm hoping that this next couple of weeks I'll have enough gas to get back to the gym, and get back to the regular routine there.

Weigh in : 179.6 Down .2-not much, but since I've been slacking on the exercising, I'm just glad I didn't gain! Good luck to all of us this week :happy:

Well, I won't meet the exercise challenge, because I've only worked out twicw this week, bit at least I'm back at the gym. I'm trying a new 17 bean soup for my lunches at work that I saw when I went shopping yesterday. I added some mixed vegies to it, and it looks like a hearty (and healthy) soup. (and all that lovely…

I too have had a really hard time with thw exercise this week - actually last week too. I was ecercising 5-6 times a week, with 3 gym days and 3 Zumba classes, and I was feeling great. Unfortunately, money has become extremely tight, and I haven't been able to pay my monthly fee for the Zumba classes, and I've been so…

9/5/11 :183 9/12/11:183 No loss foe me this week, but at least no gain. I've been really stressed this past week, and only exercised 4 days instead of my usual 5-6 days, so I'm good with maintaining. I be able to do well with the vegie challenge this week. I strength train on the days I don't have Zumba class (Tu, Thurs,…

Having a difficult week this first week of the challenge. I haven't been to the gym as often as I usually go, and having a hard time with getting the 8 glasses of water in, so haven't been able to get 10 in except yesterday. :ohwell: My food choices have been fine, but I'm feeling very stressed out financially, and I'm…

I haven't come up with my NSV's yet ( had some added stressors tonight, and didn't need anymore on that plate either :grumble: ) I will think about them a bit more and post soon I'm going to make my goal weight for the challenge 170.
