I have a friend who runs in them. Said they were the best running shoes she has ever owned and even made her 5K time a bit faster!

Circuit training?

Thank you everyone!!!! I will try some of these ideas. I try to at least get 1200 calories in a day but there have been days when 800 or 900 is all I have gotten. I also walk/jog 3 to 5 days a week, so on those days I really worry because if I do not meet my regular clories there is no way I can eat the calories burned by…

Added another 4.5 over the weekend. I think my goal for this month was a bit much. Still going to try my best but afraid I may need to lower it next month.

I am looking to start too. Can anyone recommend a good program on android phones?

Thank you all for the advice! I will research the things you all have mentioned. I am definitely taking it slow and trying my best not to get injured!

Thank you! Right now I am looking forward to running a whole mile without stopping, which will be a huge accomplishment for me. I just did not know how to start training for a marathon and an average time it takes to get ready. I know everyone is different but I was just hoping for some general idea!

I am planning to do the music city marathon. Thank you for the advice. I am not following a program. I was walking 4 to 5 miles a day and just decided that I wanted to run. So I run for as long as I feel like I can and then stop and walk until I catch my breath again and repeat the process. I signed up for a 5K just to…

I have recently started running, and although I have not experienced any injuries yet (thank goodness), I can say it is very difficult for me to run. I can not even run half a mile yet without stopping. I run a little and walk a lot and just keep repeating that over and over again. I am hoping once I shed some pounds…

I just started running this past week. I am already addicted to it even though I can not run very far yet. I run a little and then walk a lot and repeat the process over and over for about 4 miles. I am working hard to increase my running so I can run a lot and walk a little and eventually not walk at all. I am signed up…

Another 6.5 Done

I am at 12.6 miles so far this month! Do I need to update with daily totals or is every week or so enough?

I am starting tomorrow! Starting weight is 237. I will get other measurements at home tonight!

Starting tomorrow, but am going to keep up with this post for extra motivation!

Thank you all for the encouragement! I look forward to starting tomorrow!

Newbie!!! I had already made a goal with myself off 100 miles before finding this post. So now I have accountability!!!

When I am having a sweet attack, I eat a 90 calorie fiber one peanut butter and chocloate bar. It is as good as eating a candy bar for me!

I am having that same problem. One day I am down 2 pounds the next day I am up 2 pounds. Does not seem to be going anywhere. And since I have just started and have only lost 3 pounds, it is very easy to get frustrated and quit. I am trying to stay positive and keep moving in the right direction! Keep up the work and I am…

What healthy stuff does everyone eat to eat back your calories? I struggle to eat enough in a day anyway, so when I have to eat back my calories, I really struggle. I do not want to load up on junk just to get in calories.

Just finish out the day the best you can, and try again tomorrow!!!! I do not think one bad chouce defines who you are, I think repetitve bad choices is what defines us. So wake up tomorrow, make better choices and move on!

So glad to see so many who want to do it! Feel free to add me as a friend so we can all work on this together!!!

I was not able to do it yesterday, due to power outage because of the storms. But we have power today so I will start today!!!!

Good luck to you as well!!!!!! I have started the DVD several times, but never finished. I am determined to finish it this time!

I can start anytime! Today is as good as any other day!!!

It is a DVD that is by Jillian Michaels. Great workout in only 20 minutes a day.

I will give it a try!

I like Leslie Sansone as well. Walk and Kick is fun!

Jillian Michaels 30 day Shred DVD is awesome. It only takes 20 minutes a day! You can lose up to 20 pounds in 30 days if you do the workout 5 times a week.

Thank you!!!! I really appreciate all of the tips! I have been reading a lot of posts trying to figure it all out on my own, but all it has done is confuse me so far. I really want to succeed this time, and appreciate people willing to help me do just that!
