Endomodo app
So I just installed the endomodo app onto my smartphone. Does anyone know how accurate it is? As in speed, and calories burned. I linked it to mfp account, and I ran for two minutes to test it out, it said I was going 4 mph (I know, slow.. I'm just starting). It added my two minutes automatically to my account here, but it…

Running on ice?
I just started running, and a few weeks ago I got some Asics 1170's that I love. Yesterday it started snowing, and today we have ice rain. I can't even walk on the sidewalk in these! I almost fell down my front steps, and I slipped just crossing the steet. Is this normal for running shoes? I see people jogging all winter,…

Today's plan?
So what's everyone's plan/goal for today? I was very bad yesterday (600 calories over), so today I'm trying to have an extra healthy day to make up for it.

Week 1 Day 4
Day four DONE! I actually did it before work, that's huge for me. I'm not a morning person at all. It feels good to have it out of the way though! Today was the first day that it seemed a tiny bit easier than usual.. Maybe I'm finally getting stronger. How's everyone else doing?

Every day?
So are you guys doing the workout every day? Or are you taking rest days? I just read that jillan recommends doing shred-shred-cardio-shred-shred-cardio-rest. I can't decide what to do.. Some of the before & after pics of people that did it 30 days in a row are amazing! I think I'll have an easier time saying motivated if…

Things we used to do..
I was just thinking of things I used to do to hide my eating. When I used to pick up my Chinese food for lunch, they would ask how many fortune cookies and chopsticks I wanted. Sometimes I would ask for two, sometimes three. I still have a pile of extra fortune cookies everywhere. I just realised that the few times I've…

All my weight was put on during my pregnancy, and my feet swelled up like balloons at the end, and for a few weeks after the baby was born.
