Ragnar in April, Disney 1/2 in September...
I weigh 224lbs, 5'5". I am on Week 3, Day 3 of C25K - as mentioned in previous threads, I did not think I could run for 3 min straight, twice, but I did. In fact, I added an extra minute of running to the back end of the 2nd 3 min run. Looking ahead to 20m+ straight runs seems impossible, but with every 'impossible' that I…

Ways to tell you're adapted other than ketosis strips/monitors?
Can someone point me to a thread or link if one already exists? I've been keeping my carbs under 35 gross, around 21 net for a few weeks now. I have been noticing that I am remarkably fine to IF until 2pm every day. I have always used IF as a tool for weight loss because I like to enjoy a well thought out, filling meal…

Tell me I can do it...or be honest and tell me I'm nuts.
I am 226lbs (down from 254 on Christmas), 5'5". I've been working my behind off. I am currently in week 3 of the C25K program (although I've been walking like a mad woman as well as easy hikes, kettlebells, and half *kitten* effort at SL 5x5), completing each level successfully although I am always surprised that I was…

Craigslist can bite me.
Was supposed to pick up a kick *kitten* deal today (Body Solid power rack w/ lat pull, 250lbs weights, Olympic barbell, incline bench, curl ball $750) - we confirmed on Saturday that I'd pick up on Monday, he said great. Texted him today AFTER I rented the $30 trailer...didn't hear back for 3 hours that he sold it…

What could this be?
I'm Liana, 220lbs, 5'5" - I've lost 34lbs so far using IF and low carb (I stick to meat, veggies, nuts, eggs, some fruit when I 'need' dessert lol). I have officially and finally realized that refined carbohydrates don't agree with me at all. Every time I have a 'cheat day/meal', I get a tight feeling in my shoulder blade…
