Simple answer: PF doesn't cater to a certain segment of the population in a judgmental way but claims to be a judgment free zone.

For me, I don't eat before my 30 minute weekday runs. For my long weekend run (if in the morning), I have been having juice and a fruit.

I might as well come clean as well. My profile picture is not how I look.

The only reward that I decided to give myself (so far) is to get a new smoker when I get to 110 lost.

I'm morbidly obese and I am able to run fine. I would like to add to the recommendations to start with a program such as C25K.

Feb total: 106 YTD: 214

Yes, there are different versions of the program. I think the original is the one that ends week 9 with 30 minute runs.

Congrats :drinker:

I pretty much let my fitbit figure it out.

Awesome!

To be honest, somewhat surprised. Given my weight and general dislike of running (my attitude is changing :happy:), I figured that I would have to repeat a week or two. Just wish I was able to work outside a bit more but I guess that wasn't in the cards.

W9D3 done :drinker:

Looking over my spreadsheet. Ever since I got mine, I should have lost 27 pounds with the deficit I had. I've lost about 25 pounds in that time. To me that seems to be pretty close especially considering that I don't log my food as if I was doing a chemistry experiment. Of course, YMMV.

I am currently around 350 and I am in week 9. I was about 370 when I started. I have not had a need to repeat any of the weeks (of course, YMMV). I kept everything slow as the point of the program is to build up stamina. A couple things I would like to note however. I preceded starting c25k by building up to being able to…

When I looked into the procedure a while ago, I saw that when most people who failed with those operations, it was because they adapted and started eating very small portions more often throughout the day. Heck, I already do that. In addition, everyone I know of that had it done has had some sort of complication. No…

Total for January 108 miles (above what would be normal for me as a couch potato).

Combination of B&C: Been wearing until they get too baggy but if I have something in storage, I'll use it. Unfortunately, I am running out of things in storage.

I've heard of this before. It's supposed to be something like sous vide but without buying special equipment.

To get to where I am now, my first fight was to get my issues under control. It took me from April to mid-August/early September to get back in control. I did not log anything as weight loss was not the motivation at that time. I actually think that not having weight loss as a motivation and not logging contributed to in…
