Read my links below.

So far, I only know of it on the Iphone. Thats the one I'm using. I think there is one online also. I'm not sure though.

completed week 7 day 2~ it was painful but I am icing my pain area.

I read an article about how running on the treadmill is "softer" than running outside. It takes time and stamina to be able to run outdoors. The magazine suggested putting your treadmill on an incline to get similar effects as outdoors. Let me know what works, because I cant run more than 10 minutes outdoors, but can run…

I just read a review on these noodles in one of the running magazines. They are supposed to be healthy and a good substitute for pasta.

Join the couch to 5K group, we are on a 9 week program that works! You have enough time before june to practice and make it to your race.

Hey girl, welcome! You are in the exact same spot as me, I plan to run a 5K in May. Come join me.

I was supposed to do week 7 day 2 on sunday but I was too tired, plus my body was saying "no". I decided to take 2 days off to rest my muscles because I have also been swimming on my days off. So, here I am...starting week 7 day 2 tomorrow. Wish me luck!

So, considering we have 30 something weeks to go, how are we going to stay accountable? We need to either record our results weekly or every weekend. Lets do this for our health!

Hello ladies, I am in need of losing 30lbs. I would love to be at 135lbs for my (5feet 2in) frame. I am currently doing 3 run sessions for 30 minutes weekly and I try to get in one day of swimming and at least 2 days of strength training. I am watching what I eat, however, I give myself one day (friday or saturday) to eat…

Honey - I hate to tell you this but 500 calories is basically causing you to not live your fullest. You need to increase your nutrition and eat well and the health will come with it. Kindly focus on eating well and exercising (few times) a week. Thats it. The eating disorder might be taking the best part of you. Please try…

Great news! Exercise worked for me and also eating oatmeal. Please keep yourself healthy. God bless.

Nuts are a great option. Especially almonds. -100 calorie trader joes organic yogurts -Crunchy snap peas -Apple (sliced) -Hummus and crackers (within 100 cals) -half whole wheat muffin with almond butter (1tsp) -laughing cow cheese wedge (low fat) with crackers -green tea with one small cookie - walnuts (halves) -Kashi…

I generally eat most of my exercise calories and I feel happy, energetic and not starving. I have also maintained a regular weight loss doing this. I am fine with even losing one pound a week, because the benefit has been that I have maintained my weight loss longer. I experienced this during the winter holidays. I ate…

I just saw an ad for this company in the "women's health" magazine. I think I'm going to give them a try. http://www.nordicnaturals.com/en/3/Retailers

Yeah, I see what you are saying. I logged my results for food intake today and I was over 600 calories, which is fine for just today but I am amazed that I used to eat like this regularly before and not worry one bit. Now, I am sooooo concerned!

I was reading runner's world magazine this weekend and they suggest having a bowl of oatmeal with a cup of coffee if you run after breakfast. Another great option was to make a 300 calorie smoothie and drink half of it before the run and the other half after the run. Just some ideas for you.

I know how you feel!! I had a molten lava cookie at red lobster. Even though, I shared it, I later realised how bad it was. Over 1000 calories!!!!! Yuck! I'm feeling sick to my stomach....

New recipe :- HALIBUT TACOS... I took halibut and marinated it with cumin powder and lemon pepper seasoning. Grilled them with a little pam spray and served them in corn tacos. I also added, tomatoes, avacado, cilantro, onion to the tacos and they were delicious! First time, but healthy and we enjoyed it with spicy chilli…

Another question - if my protein is always going in the (over) category, do I still need whey protein?

I usually eat half a whole wheat english muffin with banana and almond butter on it. Gives me energy. Afterwards, I drink muscle milk or chocolate fat free milk.

On this program, when did you all start noticing major weight loss? Was it after the program was past 6 weeks?

Week 6 completed!! I ran 25 minutes non-stop for the first time in my life!!!!!!!!

Thanks Banks! Great advice, as always!

The mayo clinic book of a healthy diet is a great book. I have a copy and it makes sense. It tells you everything you would need to lead a healthy lifestyle. Its got great recipes and great advice from many doctors and people who have actually lost weight and kept it off.

Yeah, I noticed it also. You can see too many bones in his neck area. He needs to add more meat.
