Now it's telling me that I have to download the updates for it to work, which I'm currently trying to do, but it's not…

Runners -- Anyone ever have a foot stress fracture?
I think I may have one. I have been running since February. I have been gradually increasing my distance over the past 6 months (first did the C25K program over 12 weeks), not going crazy or running more than 3 days/week. In that time period, I also lost about 40 of the 50 total pounds that I've lost. In the last 2-3…

Anyone run 5k "races" alone?
I know this might be an odd question, but I was hoping to get some input. I want to run a 5k race (there are numerous ones coming up in my area), but my friend who was supposed to join me has bailed on me for now. I'm nervous to do it alone... guess it's just because I'm shy and it would be my first time and I have no idea…

47 lbs down since January -- pics
I still have 23 lbs to go before my goal, but I figured I'd post my results so far. I started at 220 lbs in January of this year, which is when I started MFP and decided to cut out all junk food and alcohol (except for special occasions). I started out walking on my treadmill, which had just been taking up space and…

NSV -- New scrubs, 3 sizes smaller
I'm so super excited, I just had to share my NSV. I bought new scrubs today. Size MEDIUM. I have NEVER been a medium since I've been a nurse, and that's been for the past 15 years. I'm so freaking proud of myself I could burst!! LOL My husband even thinks I look "hot" in them, although I don't know that there are any…

Buying HRM -- which one do you love?
Looking for opinions and recommendations. If you have an HRM, which one do you have and why do you love it? I'm looking something with GPS because I'll be running outside so I will want to know pace, distance, calories burned, etc. Thanks for the input!

Question about Xbox kinect Zumba workout
When I do my Zumba workout on the xbox, it gives me my stats at the end of the workout. It tells me I've burned 1052 calories for the workout I've done. Is this even possible?? LOL I don't record that many cals burned here, but since it's kinect (and it "scans" your body), I'm wondering if it is, indeed, accurate. It's a…
