  • My husband and I are quite opposite when it comes to fitness...He doesn't exercise or watch what he eats and yet, his blood work is better than mine...I have a desk job and his is very active...he drinks beer I do not...I exercise about 2-3hours a week ...more if possible...but he is 6' 2 and I am 5'3 so there's an…
  • You look fabulous...and congratulations on your weightloss success...
  • I am currently starting a training program for a 5K in October...I am currently in week 4 but may redo the week because I did not run at all last week due to allergies...I would appreciate any and all motivations...
  • I have to start my C25k over..haven't ran in a while due to rain and just procrastination, but have done some sporadic exercise routines to videos with good results...hopefully next week will start again..rain ending this weekend...May need to invest in a treadmill
  • I would love to be at 125 for my 40th birthday in October...only 7 pounds to go but hit a plateau for past two weeks. I need to step it up in the exercise department. :embarassed:
  • Well, I turn 40 in October and would love to be at goal weight of 125...only 8 pounds to go but in a major plateau..no losses for two weeks now...:ohwell:
  • After having my first child in 2011 (at age 38) I wanted to lose the extra baby weight and walking just wasn't doing it for me anymore. So, I found the C25K program and started running. It was definitely a chore at first! The first week I had shin splints and could barely run a minute. Now, I can run 3 miles nonstop. I've…
  • Well After getting off to a good start w/ C25K I may have to "redo" again...my baby is not feeling well and neither am I, so may have to make a trip to the doctor's for both of us tomorrow...we will see what the morning brings...
  • Never say "NEVER", I had a baby at 38 and now at just 39 I am in better shape than before I had her... Age is just a number!!!

  • You did not Fail but had a rest day...well not really with two children to watch...but you know what? There's always tomorrow...Keep up the good work!!
  • Sounds good to me ...that is my running schedule as well...happy running!!!
  • I would love to join your group! I need more people around who enjoy similar interests as me and I could definitely use the encouragement and others to keep me going especially when making excuses about lack of time or energy!!! I need you guys to kick me in the rear from time to time...I just started C25K...yet again...…
  • Hi My name is Tina I am a working new mom and just graduated from college in May 2012. i actually ran my first 5k last October and have been running with the C25k program since...However I just restarted my training due to a lack of time between work, school, and my now 16 month old daughter. I just completed week 1 Day 2…
  • I would like to join you're group. I am 38 and just had my first child in February, a girl. I am about to complete my Associates degree in Sociology in May 2012 and will then pursue my Bachelors in Sociology in August 2012. I have only been on MFP for a month and have already lost 5 lbs. Anyway, I would love to join you're…
  • All I can add is to hang in there!!! I know it is frustrating. I just overcame a plateau of my own recently. So... don't give up keep trying. Calories may be a little low ; may try 1300 or so. See if it gets you over the hump. Just remember, we all hit plateaus during weight loss but the difference is perseverance. Those…
  • Riane, I am going through the exact same thing so don't get discouraged. I recently had a baby and am trying to lose those stubborn last 10 lbs and it has me so frustrated. According to MFP, this week alone I have burned like 1800 calories and my goal is set at like 900. And yet the scale does not budge. I am going to try…
  • Hey WestcoastMom, While I'm not doing the Slimdown Program you mentioned, It seems to be working well for you and jennieodwyer. I am very jealous when I read both of your steady progress. I am down to the last 10 pounds and even though I am vigorously working out 4 to 5 hours a week and coming in low on the calories, my…
  • Hi! Katberz, Thank you for responding to my post so quickly. It's nice to hear from other "mums" who are going through the exact same things as I am. Congrats on you current weight loss! Although you've got a ways to go, it seems to me you are well on your way towards success. I (on the other hand) have yet to lose…
