I just sent a friend request. I'm doing day 3 tonight. My calves and chest are so sore from the first 2 days!

You just said everything that I've been wondering too!!! I just completed the c25k running program and did my first 5K over the weekend. That was a HUGE accomplishment for me. When I started training 10 weeks ago I could barely run for 1 min. at a time. Now I can run a 5K! The whole thing was a struggle though. I keep…

I'm starting it tonight! I just finished c25k, so I have been doing nothing but cardio for the last 10 weeks. It's time to add in some strength training. Add me for support!

I finally am heading in the right direction! Yay! Completed the c25K program this week and ran my first 5K today! Not fast, but I beat my training times by a minute...so I'm happy!

Welcome! I'm just up the road from you in Austin! Feel free to add me for motivation and support.

What a great story! Very inspiring! I'll be thinking of you when I run my very first 5K this weekend!

Ack!!! I'm slowly going in the wrong direction.

I feel your pain! I'm 41 and can't seem to get these last 10 pounds off! Feel free to add me for motivation and support!

I'm right there with everyone! I turned 41 in December. I was just complaining to my daughter today about how much more I'm exercising and eating better and still can't seem to get these 10 pounds off! Very frustrating! It used to be so easy...I never worried about what I ate and exercising wasn't even part of my…

Welcome! You'll love this site. Feel free to add me for support!

That's my goal too! I have 10 pounds to go. Feel free to add me for support.

This is one of my favorites! It can be served for breakfast, lunch or dinner and can be adjusted to your liking. I make it even lower in calories and fat by omitting the oil (I use a spray of PAM) and I use reduced fat feta, and monterey cheese with a about a 1/4 cup of parmasean. I only put about a half of the cheese that…

Ugh...slight increase from last week...I'm going to keep plugging away and hopefully next week see some better results!

I struggle with the same issue. I have to keep reminding myself that it is better to "waste" the food than to "waist" the food! :)

You look great! What a difference a month makes...your muffin top is gone and look how little your waist is! :)

I'm training for a 5K. My race day is July 30th. I'm doing the c25k training program. I'm currently in week 6. I have two goals on race day... 1.) to actually be able to run the whole way 2.) to finish in under 37 min. When I started training I could barley run for 90 seconds straight! I now can run 20 min. straight! It…

Down 1 pound, not a lot, but right on target! :) Category: 10-15 6/9: **144.6 6/16: 143.6 6/23: 6/30: 7/7: <<<mini goal weight 140>>> 7/14: 7/21: 7/28: 8/4: <<<mini goal weight 135>>> 8/11: 8/18: 8/25: 9/1: <<<challenge goal weight 130>>>

What a great chart! Thank you for taking the time to organize this! My goals... Drink more water (8 - 10 cups a day) Cut down on sweets (notice how I said "down" and not "out") I'm trying to be realistic! :) Try not to blow the diet while on vacation! Finish c25k (currently on w4d3) Run 5K scheduled for July 30th

I started MFP few weeks ago. I sit at a desk all day too, which makes it really hard to lose weight! My daughter and I are doing this together. It really helps to have the support of friends and family! Feel free to add me as a friend.

This is a great site! I'm fairly new myself. Feel free to add me!

Another newbie here. I definitely need the motivation! I would love to join if there's still room...
