Anyone else feel disgusting?
Don't get me wrong, I love doing this. I never was a runner, even when I was younger. However, I cringe when I think of people watching me. I've usually got sweat flying. My nose is running like a faucet most of the time. And I know I sound like a crazy woman in labor with my breathing. Am I alone in this?

W4d1 complete
I failed it last week, but I did it this week! Going back to week 3 did wonders, though I was still struggling.

Migraines

I knew I couldn't make it through the rest of the class because it was already accompanied by nausea as well, and I wouldn't have been able to make it home the 30 minute drive otherwise. Got home, immediatly took some…

Advice on weighing please.
Yesterday when I weighed I was +.2 of a lb. I was extremely constipated and hadn't gone for a week. That was rectified yesterday and today I weighed and was -1.3 lbs. So my question is should I still stick with my weight of yesterday, or should I go by today's weight? Any advice would be much appreciated!

C25k podcast
I was searching for a C25k podcast that would have songs that I'd like on it. I came across www.kissmyblackass.org. It's a great site with rap songs mixed with running and walking cues. You can download each week as you reach it. My training today flew by!

c25k question
Hi, I started the c25k program for the treadmill today. It said to walk for 5 minutes, run for 1 , walk for 1 1/2 etc. etc. I'm not able to run yet, is a slow jog okay? Or am I just defeating the purpose? I barely completed the first sessions before my treadmill broke :o ( ! It was old, and let's face it, I'm heavy.…

Beginner jogging question.
Hi all, I've been walking for the past three months, and I felt like I was ready to jog. So I set out tonight to accomplish that goal. Well...the only thing I accomplished was being a sweaty mess and scaring the crap out of a raccoon!! I managed to do about 15 seconds of jogging, to every minute of walking. This doesn't…

Did I do awful?
I don't usually eat my exercise calories, but when I got home from class tonight, I didn't feel good and I was craving pizza. Usually I don't give in to my cravings but for some reason tonight I did. If I include my exercise calories it says I still have 165 calories left. Is that okay to eat them back? I'm feeling bad…

Old shirt :)
So I used to be a nurse tech and I've always wore a XXL in scrubs, both in tops and bottoms. Well I bought a scrub top, a pretty expensive one last year and it wouldn't fit at all. Was just way too tight :( I found it last night when I was going through some stuff and tried it on, and it fit!! Woohoo! It's paying off :)

Breaking up walking?
I have a quick question. I usually walk anywhere from 80 to 120 minutes. Is it okay to kind of break this up throughout the day? Most days I'd like to do 120 minutes, but I don't have the time all at once. Would the calories burned be the same? Or is it better to do it all at once??
