I thought it was just me! It's really annoying.

Mine is scheduled to come in June. I wasn't going to get one because I have to bring my phone on my run either way, but I like that I can easily access my playlist and my running app (see distance, MPH, etc) from my wrist. Otherwise, I cannot access these at all with the waist belt that I currently use to carry my phone…

When I started c25k, I gained two pounds the first week and didn't lose them for four weeks. Be patient; your hard work will pay off

Me too!

I'll add you! I have been on this journey for about 3 years...I think. I lost about 40 pounds, put all but 10 back on and went back on it back in August and I am now down a total of 43 pounds from when I started. I have about 69 more pounds to go until my goal. I also work full time and have a 4 and a 6 year old. Life can…

I'm not a MOB (and since my daughter is only 6 right now, I better not be for a very long time, lol), but I just want to say you ladies are so cute! I can feel your excitement for your daughters and it is wonderful. Have fun at the wedding and good luck on your journey!

Thank you for the links and all of the suggestions/comments everyone! I was afraid the elliptical was going to be my best bet; I loathe the elliptical, but I would hate to have to start all over with running even more, so I will take to the elliptical once I can do that comfortably. I do have a recumbent bike at home and I…

I went to Culver's (a restaurant with FANTABULOUS frozen custard and AMAZING fried cheese curds, for those of you who do not have the pleasure of having a Culver's near you) last night to get ice cream for my kids and husband and I didn't get any for myself! Actually, that's a freakin' major success!!!

OMG why??????

Why is there no "like" button???!!!

How do you make those taste like the honey nut cheerios?

I've been having some minor pain in my calf/side shin area, so I started wearing a compression calf sleeve during my runs and I really notice a difference! I don't necessarily notice a difference in my performance; just that the pain is not there while running when I wear it.

I went on two separate vacations late this winter and my goal was to stay the same weight. I was pleasantly surprised to get home and see that I managed to do that (both times!!). I made sure I worked out every day of my vacation; get out and take some walks, see the sites, enjoy the atmosphere of your vacation spot. Swim…

I'm about the same. I am 5'2.5" and weigh 193 (my starting weight was 233, though). My goal is to be in the 120's. Add me, if you'd like! Good luck on your journey!

I am so sorry you have been through so much! I'm really not very good at giving advice; I just wanted to give you some support in your journey. Friend me if you'd like. I may not be good in the advice department, but I am a great listener :smile:

Still a work in progress, but this is 35 pounds down. I still have 65 to go. Funny how I didn't realize how much better I look until I compared pictures.

Anything from Pittbull! His stuff has such a great tempo and I treadmill dance everything his stuff comes onto my Pandora station. I'm sure I look like a total tool, but it just really pumps me up!

A mid-sized microwave, or four pounds shy of my 4.5 year old. I carried him around Disney World last month and I can't believe I used to carry that extra amount around all day, every day! Ultimate goal is to lose a two month old horse.

DONE!!!! I actually completed the program last week, but forgot to post. I am nowhere near the 10 minute mile the app tells me I should be at, but I can run a full 5k and that is all I wanted! Next step....10k! Last night I even ran 3.25 miles on the treadmill (the treadmill kills me; it is so much easier to run outside…

20 pounds in a month is really aggressive and unless you are really overweight, it is not even healthy. Why do you have to lose it in a month? That amount of weight should take you months to lose, not just one month. Running can definitely help you lose weight, just like any exercise will. But, it won't be a miracle…

I've also been battling a nasty cough this week and I agree with the hot lemon honey water. I put 1 tablespoon honey and two slices of fresh Lemmon in a mug of water. I heat it in the microwave until hot and sip in bed at night. I am feeling better today, but I think ill have a cup tonight anyway because it is so yummy!

Done with W8D2. I was able to run outside twice last week and was able to run 3k non stop both times, but I have yet to hit that on the treadmill (best I've done is 2.5 miles non-stop). I always thought running on the treadmill would be easier, but boy was I wrong! I was pleasantly surprised by how much easier it is to run…

I ran outside for the first time last week (that was week 7 for me) and my plan was to just run. I ended up running a full 5k, with no walking breaks! The closest I got to that on the treadmill was 2.5 miles. I also use Map My Walk and my splits were all faster than the treadmill. For whatever reason, running outside is…

I love my Brooks Adrenalin running shoes. I also have a pair of New Balance that are good for walking.

That is so awesome!! Great work!

Completed w5d3 today no problemo. This is the fourth run in a row where I have ran 2.25 miles. That takes me about 33 minutes. I would say that today was the hardest run so far. I really had to push myself to get to 2.25 miles. After that, I walked for three minutes, ran until I hit three miles and then walked five minutes…

I'd love to join!
