Thank you, I guess I am just wondering if it is typical shin splints that I don't really need to worry about or if I have to rest for a while. It really only happens during my workout and for about an hour afterwards. When I have had shin splints in the past, they have always been on the front of my leg, these are on the…

What state do you live in? Most of them have leash laws that would override your HOA's regulations.

I quit ten months ago tomorrow. I highly recommend the Cessation Nation App for your phone. It calculates money saved, time saved, how long it has been since you quit, and tells you the health benefits along the way. It is what got me through that rough initial time. I did put on about 10-15 pounds since quitting, and am…

Great job! I ran my first 5k in August... it was tough but felt so great to finish. I am also at my heaviest weight... about 220lbs. We walked the color run this past Saturday - too crowded to run. But I am signed up to run a 5k next Sunday. Good for you! You are awesome and will do GREAT in October :) :)

SW: 221 CW: 218 this morning GW: 213 Weigh in Dates: 9/1 - 218 9/6 - 9/13 - 9/20 - 9/27 - 9/30 - Total weight lost: Just for fun: What is your favorite fall exercise? I have gotten into running recently... and I LOVE to do it when it is nice and cool outside. Good luck everyone!

Slow down.... and when you think you can't go any slower, slow down some more.. This is coming from someone who could not run for 1 minute straight and just finished my first 5k on Saturday in 40 minutes. Speed will come.

I lift 3x a week also, and try to get a few runs in... I chose sedentary so that I eat back my exercise calories rather than moderate and not eating them back... I just read another thread on this, I'll look for the link... I think that lifting would definitely be considered moderate exercise!

27 y/o, 215 lbs, pants size 16, shirts L or XL (although today I am wearing a size 14 dress!!)

Feel free to add me, I am 27.

I have started weighing daily but only recording weekly. That way the fluctuations don't get me so crazy but I can still see where I am each morning.

I'll double check this! Thank you all for your input/kind words!

Adopt! Skip the puppy stage if you are concerned about housetraining, chewing, etc... that is part of a puppy that you have to accept.

Age 27 Height 5'9" Daily Calorie intake 1700 plus exercise calories Workouts lifting 3x a week, cardio about 2x a week Weight loss goals hit 175lbs, then reevaluate

donuts, cookie dough, chocolate. yummmmmmmmmm

I am doing strong lifts 5x5 and using LiftBig.

I am 5'9" and am going for a goal of 175. Then I will reevaluate.

I don't see why not! I bet kidney beans, chili beans, or pinto beans would be awesome!

OMG - I made this tonight and it is freaking amazing! I had some leftover cornbread, so I broke up a piece and served this on top of it. I also used drained and rinsed canned corn instead of frozen. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!

Fill a jug with water and add cucumber slices to it.... even mint and lemon juice. YUM. I love it. so refreshing!

Me!! Would like to start a family in 1-2 years. Add me!! I am 5'9" and need to lose about 40lbs.

Usher - Scream.

Playing catch up for the weekend today. 20 sec done. Will do 2 x 30 sec before the end of the work day!

Sounds awesome. I did two 20 second planks (for yesterday and today)... my whole upper body was trembling. Wow.

Great job! It is so tough... I quit cold turkey 213 days ago... I HIGHLY recommend the Cessation Nation smart phone app. It REALLY helped me through the first few weeks. You will be so happy that you quit!

bump, yum!

Hello! I am 5'9" and 217lbs. Goal of 175lbs. Anyone can add me :) Always looking for supportive friends!

Great work! You should be very proud :)

Having the same problem, but do not have the solution :(

Currently share my bed with two pit bulls and my hubby. Coley (pit bull) and I spoon and Phoenix sleeps at hubby's feet. Wouldn't have it any other way! New puppy sleeps in her crate due to housetraining, and cat sleeps in the living room because hubby is allergic.

I guessed 7.5% bigger than I am. Thanks for sharing!
