week 1 day 2 completed :D

Do you run to a program like c25k? Try going back and pushing yourself each run a little bit at a time. This week run 12 minutes, next week run 13 etc. Focus more on your music than what is in your head or where you are. For me, I run the school track, so I focus on the lines, or my music or both.

I too started with a timed interval training. I am now on w1d3 of the actual c25k program but w3d3 of interval running

Amazing work! Great job!!

You look amazing! It's true what a difference hard work makes, staying determined to reach your goal, and realizing it took a while to reach the point where you had enough, it will take a while to get back down to a more healthier size. Slow and steady wins the race right. Keep up the awesome work! Thanks for being an…

Hi All! I'm Amber. 33 yo from Cambridge, Ontario :) I took up crochet a year and a half ago as my counselor at the time made me. I started with your basic dishcloths, until a gf of mine said I should get into amigurumi, and I love it! I can also knit although I haven't since I was a teenager. I love to learn, and up for…

I made a duck, a bunny and a fleece dog blanket for my brothers baby shower last week I am working on two large dragons for my kids that I started forever ago and just can't seem to finish My next project is a touque for hubby Then I have no idea... maybe mittens and hats, or sweaters I have only been crocheting for 1.5…

I love Ravelry Pinterest has links to some as well. Thanks for all the free pattern links as well guys :)

I am in Cambridge :) I have tried all sorts of diets and nothing works for me. Now that I am relatively stress free, and life has slowed down, I am taking this time for me to lose all of the weight I gained in the past 4 years being stressed. I am doing a lower carb higher protein/fat combination, as well as C25K and…

You look gorgeous! WTG!!

We tried it once, baked it, added Ragu to it, and it tasted horrible. We weren't big fans, and went back to whole wheat spaghetti instead

I do, I read before bed, or crochet etc. I drag the boys with me to the track when I need to and tell them that this is my time. They can play in the middle, or do whatever they want within eye range, but not to bug me during my running me time. I remind them of how often I do stuff for them, that this is time for me and…

I am 5'6 and 215 lbs. Looking to lose about 75 more lbs or so Feel free to add me :)

Thank you for your words of wisdom, they really resonated with me as I struggle to make it through. Amazing job! Congratulations!

I agree with starting slow, going at your own pace. I weigh 220 and am on week 3 of my pre c25k plan. I found when I started a few months ago, I couldn't do it, mostly because I was really out of shape and because my neighbourhood is all up hill therefore it put too much on my muscles and I could barely make it home. Now I…

I suffer from the same thing as you. What I did was start a plan to be in bed between 8-9 each night (my husband goes to bed at 9 to be up crazy early for work) and I quietly read with a small light on for a half hour. When I got into bed for the first few nights I would take a melatonin just to help relax me to fall…

That's amazing! Congratulations!!

I am doing week 2 day 2 of my preC25K tomorrow Up to 45 seconds now!

That's an awesome nsv! Great job! I am jealous!!

I am 33 with an 8 year old and a 7 year old both boys. I am trying to be the best mom I can be for them, now it is my turn to take care of myself so I can be a better mom for them by losing the weight and exercising. I am now teaching them that although I am devoted to them, I need time for myself too, and take them with…

First 10 was done by portioning my meal sizes to smaller plates, and cutting out night time snacking. The next 12 lbs was done by cutting out a lot of carbs - breads, starches etc, and sugar, but saying ok to fattier foods like cheese etc as long as it was low carb, I increased veggies,drink infused water and started C25K…

Feel free to add me, I am on every day. Looking to lose 60 - 80 more pounds :)

I am doing higher fat foods to keep with calories nuts, cheese, etc, usually between 1200-1500 a day. As for exercise, I was doing the c25K program, but because of the extreme heat 40 degrees Celsius which is over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, I workout for an hour in the pool instead swimming laps, or doing aqua aerobics etc. I…

I have tried extra strength melatonin last two nights still restless And once I had to pee. Learning when to cut fluids will be challenging in this heatwave The last few months I have been a more solid all night sleeper Until this week Not stressed, not a lot on my mind Just restless

I was doing 1 cup frozen strawberries 1banana frozen or raw 1 cup skim milk 1 scoop slim fast vanilla for taste I am trying to do low carb and this is a no no because everything but the strawberries are high in carbs I am keeping the strawberries and banana because I am fussy and going water and low carb greek vanilla…

I started my pre C25K program that I came up with on my own. I am 5'6 started at 240 and am currently at 228. I am so out of shape that it hurts. I go to my local high school and run their track as it is softer easier on the body and level. My neighbourhood is very hilly causing me to have shin splints and pain. I can't…
