Hey I am trying to get back in shape too! I have been running on and off and have never been a distance runner. My boyfriend and i were supposed to do a warrior dash last september but it fell through due to family issues. But anywho!!! We def want to do one this up coming summer.....where are you located? You can private…

uggghhh I feel ya I need the motivation too... i started on here awhile ago lost like 6 pounds then fell off the wagon now i am only down 1 pound! Trying and trying but seem to be stuck! Friend me tooo!

I do most of this as well. I weigh myself before my workout too but not with my shoes on then weigh myself after my work out and then when i get home from the gym weigh myself again with no clothes on then since I work midnights i go to sleep and first thing i do after I go to the bathroom when i wake up is weigh myself!!!

Ugh I am in the same boat. I am totally falling behind. I was down 23 pounds....gained 20 back dropped 10 gained 8 back...I have been on this roller coaster. Then my best friend got married this past weekend and I have totally fallen behind on posting and logging weight and food! I also have missed the gym the past five…

Mine were like that till I ran more regularly and then it was fine.

yeah I had to set a goal for myself, when i first started running my 1.5 miles i was at like 17 mins...my goal was to get it down to 15 mins now I am working on getting it down to a 13 min run. Then I want to work on distance i am working on 3 miles right now then after that i will try to get to 5 miles.

I give you credit I am nervous enough to do a 5k let alone a marathon!!! good Luck!

Nice! I am working on speed too. I have never been a distance runner. I rather run sprints all day instead of distance but i have set out to concur distance running and I will do it. I had to do 1.5 miles for a physical agility recently and was working on my time for that I have that down to 14:23, I want to get it into…

A lot of ppl on here at doing the C25k ...has it worked for you how is your endurance?

You could try an ace bandage too. Most of them have velcrow on them now so they will stay where youput them plus you can wear them as loose or tight as needed.

Great job you look great!!!!

i know how those go...someone here at work is retiring and they have allll sorts! of food here tonight and im trying not to graze but it is def not easy! So tredmil here i come!

I only work 8s...11 pm to 7 am so you have a few hours on me. But I try to go for atleast an hr or 1.5 hrs. I used to work out before my shift but i felt like it was cutting my day short. Now I sleep better cause i am extra tired lol.

Ugghhh im ready for bed too but i go to the gym when i get out in the am tonight im not sure if i am feeling it!!!

I work midnights too! 11 pm to 7 am. Ive been on here for a couple months now fell off the wagon a time or two as well! Gettin back on recently!

Welcmoe to mfp! You deff will love it here! I have come to love documenting my food every day its almost kind of addicting lol! Join us have fun and lose the weight! Glad to have you!

I believe you it has been nuts with fireworks tonight

you work at a PD?

I work midnights it is 0349 hrs here!

It always helps me to go running do some kinda physical activity to keep my mind off of it. Or I cuddle up in bed get comfy to the point where i dont want to move so its less appealing to eat cause id have to get up to get it. Be strong!!!!

your doing great! Way to go!!!!!

thanks guys! I think you've convinced me! I will take a break from my normal distance running and hit a zumba class!

thanks for the feedback! I was thinking about doing it but wanted to get feed back first from people!

Hey I know how it goes! I have those days where I cant stand looking at myself everything looks fat and flubby! Then other days I am excited at how I look and things are great! But today was deff a ugh look at me kinda day! One of those days where you skip looking in the mirror all together! We all have been there!!!!

Sandra bullock!!!!!! she looked amazing in the proposal!

I work at a police dept. I run a camera system that is located in the high crime areas of the city. I also help to message officers give them information on their jobs before getting onscene and run our shotspotter system. With hopes to get on the road some day myself, its harder than it looks!

I do agree with you SpaceMarkus. For instance as much as I hate admitting this when I first started running I could HARDLY finish a 1.5 mile run and it was taking me upwards of 17:30 mins to do it. Now I am running it in 14:44 and still continuing to lose time every time I run it for time. Also I am now running 2.5 miles…
