Anyone else loosing baby weight?
I'm looking for new friends who also have extra pregnancy weight to lose. I was down to about 125 before I got pregnant and I'm hoping to get back to that weight. I'm about 145 right now so 20 pounds to go. Although I won't lie,, I've been crazy lazy and eating a lot of junk food. I'm sure about 5 pounds will come off just…

For the first time in my life...
For the first time in my life I was able to run 20 minutes nonstop! I've never ever been a runner. In middle school and high school I was in that group of kids who brought up the rear of our 1 mile running tests. I've tried running off and on throughout the years after high shool (I'm 24 now) but I always pushed myself too…

Looking for some more friends :)
Hello everybody! I have some great people to help motivate me currently, but i'm looking to add to the list! I love having all the extra support, it really motivates me to get up and do something when I know people can tell when I'm being lazy! I'm basically what you would call '' skinny fat''. I'm 24, 5'7 (maybe 5'6 I'm…

Weight loss plateau after losing just 5-6 pounds :/
Ok so let me explain a bit. My starting weight was 136. After about 3 and a half weeks I had lost about 5 pounds. My weight got to 130.8 (Yay!) My calorie intake varied, some days it was in between 1000-1200 calories, some days exactly 1200, other days it went up to 1500. I decided last Saturday that since I was going to…

How long was it before you could run a 5k
I'm training to run a 5k in October. Its a long ways away but i'm hoping to finish in under 21 minutes so I need to train early... I started off as a 'couch potato' that never exercised. That was exactly 4 weeks ago. I went from not being able to run for more than 2 minutes to being able to run 1.5 miles nonstop (today's…

I just ran my first mile without stopping!
I've been going to the gym for exactly a week now. A week ago it took me 14.35 minutes to run/walk a mile on the treadmill. I practiced running 4 days and couldn't get all the way through a mile without stopping to walk at least 2 times. I have myself running at a 6.0 speed so that's probably why I have to stop so much!…

What is the one food you wish had no calories
Just for fun! What's the one food/meal that you wish wasn't unhealthy for you? Mine is super plain. Chips. Any and all kinds. It's my addiction. I actually haven't had any since I started running a week and a half ago, (and im going strong! Almost got a small bag while grocery shopping yesterday but put it back because I…

Its not been the a great week, any advise is appreciated!
Ok. First things first. I started working out/running on December 23 (yes, I was so excited to start I couldn't wait till Christmas was over lol). At that point I was starting from a couch potato so it took me 14.35 exactly to finish the mile on the treadmill, I was mostly walking. Since then I've worked on that mile 5…

Looking for some more friends :)
I've posted a few things on here, but mostly stuck to myself. I'm realizing that part of the magic of this site is the support group of people that make it up. So, with that being said, I'm looking for more friends if anyone wants more! :) I like to comment a lot so make sure that's ok first lol :) And good luck on…
