10-09-11 30 miles total for this month so far = 48

I have been under calories and working out but managed to gain 3lbs. So frustrating! Anyway, I am not changing my weight thingie. So there! Oh, but I know....I feel I need to stop being a slave to the scale. I weigh myself every single morning and night. I have a ten mile run tomorrow and bike ride for 40 miles…

Newman's Low Fat Sesame Ginger...hands down. 35 calories per serving too! DELICIOUS!

Love this!

Runner here too! Ran many halfs...my second full next May.

I did it this year with my sister. i am a runner so for me it was easy, well except for crawling part. My knees hurt. My sister, she is not a runner and only train for a mile prior and she had to walk a lot. I say run 3 miles training, no need to go balls out. It was more fun when I did it with my sister, even if I did…

LA Rock n Roll Half Marathon October 30th. Hoping to break my PR of 1:57...I keep getting around that...1:59 under 2 but barely :(

I have lost 102 lbs and have some saggy skin BUT I am 41 and I have abused my body over and over with weight issues, at one time I was 298. For the most part it is certain areas--mostly my stomach. I have my "wings" my upper arms. But I have been working them and truthfully they do not look as bad as my stomach. That being…

I'm in for 100. I am hoping for more though. 10-1-11---18 miles

Hoping for 8. But will take 5! Oct.1- 150.2 Oct.8 Oct.15 Oct.22 Oct.29

I made the 8 lbs goal!!! I started this month's challege at 159 and now at 150.2. Woo hoooooooooooooooooo!!! I was hoping to crest into the 140's ...but I will be there soon :)

bump

Sure. I just did one in September and it helped!

Oh yeah to answer the question, to finish a full marathon before turning 40 AND i just lost the bulk of my weight, I lost 95 lbs. Now it is to beat my best time in a half and for a full to erase that bad memory from my first one along with that 6.5 hour time tied to my name.

I love this. I swore after my first and only marathon in 2009 when I was hurting and cried during miles 22-26 because of poor training (ran the full in 6.5 hrs :( --- I have since ran 7 halfs and 5ks, with my PR at 1:57) that I would never run another full, well I am running one next year after two more halfs. I ask myself…

I didn't want to weigh in because I have a vistor TOM. Anyway, I am at 153, but I am focused. I will wait the vistor out and then next week I am sure I will be good. Sooo...although officially I have gained 1 pound from last week I am not changing my ticker!

I have always been overweight and lately I have contemplating a tummy tuck. I feel I will never be able to tighten it up...EVER.

Thanks much!

I get the same cramp and I too, hold the spot, pressing deep and turn my head and do deep breaths. Sometimes it goes away and sometimes, I have to walk because it is so painful. This happened during one of my half marathon races where I had to walk most of my last 3 miles and therefore, out went my goal of 1:50 :( (I…

I finally made it through a weekend without gaining! Of course, I had to be VERY mindful of eating. I usually go OFF on the weekends (and I mean like eat a burrito or two from the delicious tac shops we have here in San Diego--oh & on the same day!!!), even though I work out like mad. But this weekend, I ate moderatly and…

I am around your stats GW 125 CW: 152 Height 5'6" Age: 41

Well, I had a bit of up this past weekend, even though I rode a 37 mile hilly bike ride and ran my 5 k, I still managed to eat more than enough calories to sustain me for the week. Anyway, I gailed 3 pounds back and now today I am at 154. The weekends KILL me. I work out a lot but eat more than I should. I am going to try…

This made me laugh! My son and dghtr in law play WoW.

Single and at times okay (yes, just okay) with it and at times, really really not. I have two dogs that occupy my time and involved in biking, running and hiking groups.

Sept 1: 159. Sept 8: 155 Sept 15: Sept 22: Sept 30: Let's see if I can keep it up!

Arggg...I have been working out and eating under calories and was down four and then this morning I jump on scale...up 3??? What the heck?!? Anyway, just feel frustrated and tired of fighting with the scale. I will run later today, eat right, yadda yadda yadda and see what happens tomorrow. Frustration kicking in :(
