I too love the Bolthouse dressings. The salsa ranch is one of my staples. I also like to mix a little of the Classic Ranch with a tsp of Trader Joe's Garlic Mustard Aoli.. YUM!

Congrats on taking the first steps to a healthier you! I would check out the cool runnings web site for the C25K schedule, as well as tips for beginners. I have never been a runner and am now on Week 5!! You can do it too!! Take it slow and steady and just concentrate on each day as it comes. If you have to repeat a day,…

I would suggest reading the book "Shrink Yourself" by Dr. Rober Gould. It's about breaking free from emotional eating and has really helped me!

wow!! I actually have read your post twice and both times it brought tears to my eyes. It can truly be overwhelming when faced with losing a significant amount of weight. Your results prove that with the right attitude, determination and hard work, it really is possible. Thank you so much for sharing. I needed to read this…

Good morning! Completed W5D2 yesterday .. woot woot! It was challenging but not overwhelming. D3 is going to be the true test but I am pumping myself up mentally to take on the challenge. Hope you all are having a GREAT week. Go kick some booty!

I must check out the Pandora station. Thanks for the tip :)

Love Jog.fm too!!! Will give you some good ideas. My current playlist has everything on it.... Nine Inch Nails - Down in it. Jay Z - Can I get a..... Fergie - Fergalicious ( I can really run on this one!!!) Pink - U+Ur Hand Green Day - Brain Stew PSY - Gangnam Style.. (seriously!! It makes me laugh and has a good beat)

ha!! I agree.

Great advice! I am on week 5 of the C25k plan and run inside on a treadmill. I run at .5 incline and 3.9, which I feel is slow too however after doing some research on the C25k site it really is just about training yourself to run at this point. Once we complete the program then we can start working on pace. GREAT…

I also go to Fleet Feet. If you don't have one around ask anyone who runs or GOOGLE a store that will "fit" you for shoes. Best investment I made!

Another option is to cook your chicken breasts in a crockpot. I do this every other week, just to mix things up. Super easy and convenient. Depending on the flavor you want, cook chicken in broth and add in what you are in the mood for. Personally, I like my food spicy so I will add in a little chicken broth and a jar of…

I would continue to week 4, if it's too much then back down to Week 3. You may surprise yourself! Hope you feel better :)

Starting Week 5.....kind of scared but ready to ramp it up. Also considering doing 30 DS in between. Add me! Just fitted for a new pair of running shoes. If you haven't done it, I highly suggest it!

I am on week 4 and have done most of my training on the treadmill. I have never ran before and am not in very good shape so starting out on a treadmill was my method of choice. I honestly feel that if it had been too hard, I would have given up. Now I love my work outs, I still feel challenged and one day I WILL run…

Starbucks Blonde, dash of half and half and sweetener. Time for another cup!

When I have days like that I eat an extra protein. I usually have a drop on the scale the next day too :)

I am using the treadmill only right now ... Week 2, Day 3 tomorrow. I do put it on a 1% incline :)

Great question! I travel quite a bit and it has been one of my greatest challenges. It can be done but like most things diet and fitness related, it takes planning and a serious mindset. For starters, I pack protein bars for a quick meal or snack when I can't get real (healthy food). If staying in a hotel with a…

I am juicing! Absolutely love it. My daily fav is carrot, apple and lemon. Juicing is great for you. Not only does it aid in digestion and cleaning out toxins but it gives your cells a much needed boost. Juicing also gives me tons of energy.. LOVE IT.

12oz of fresh organic juice an hour before working out. .... I like carrot, apple and lemon. I swear by it.. not only does it digest well but it gives me tons of energy

I eat turkey bacon and whatever fresh fruit I have on hand.
