c25k should I repeat week 6
I just finished week 6 on the zombies, run c25k app (LOVE IT) and I have a dilemma. Should I repeat or go on? Reason to repeat - I could only run 5 out of 7 minutes in the last run of the session. I completed everything else fine, but I walked 2 minutes in the middle of that last run (ran 2 walked 2 ran 3) Maybe I could…

Here's my home gym. Now what?
I am completely new to lifting weights, but I think this is the next step in my weight loss journey. I've been working on my diet for the past two months and have added cardio. This set was given to me for free a couple of years ago. It was just put together, a work out in itself, but now I'm not sure where to begin. I am…

Running knee problems HELP
I have started a c25k program and I am on Week 4. My right knee is starting to hurt. I noticed it a little over a week ago, but it went away so I figured just muscle growth.

Student brought me an iced mocha...
Any suggestions on how to accept this gift without adding it to my food log? I'm not ready to come out of the dieting closet and I don't want to offend. I really appreciate the gesture. I love my job, but food surprises are a part of my problem. If there is a cookie laying out, I'm eating it.

When do you track calories?
I'm still working on week 1 so really new to all of this and looking for advice. Do you post food as you eat throughout the day, pre-plan all of your meals in the morning or wait and add them all at night? Right now I feel like I am entering throughout the day, but it seems to be consuming my life, and maybe it should…
