I'm not yet at maintaining, but I'm down 108lbs, with the help of WLS. I eat healthy most of the time and I exercise 5-6 days a week (running, step class and aquafit).

Has anyone ever signed up for a running room clinic?
Right now Ive lost 50lbs and am close to the 300lb mark. I'm hoping to lose another 40-50lbs by the time the clinic starts, which is in 5 months. I have always wanted to run - Ive been going to the gym for 7 weeks and can now (finally) walk 5k. This month I want to increase my speed. and then next month I'll add weights…
