Halfway there...
So last November, I decided I had to stop eating whatever crossed my path, and get my rear in gear. 20 pounds down, 20 to go. November 12, 2016 to February 4, 2017.

Ok Ladies and Gents...
I'm thinking we need a mini challenge thrown in here! I've noticed that a LOT of us are starting to slow down, or posting that we are "just maintaining this week." Myself included! I went over my calories one day and went up 2 lbs! And it's been 4 days since then, so I don't think it's just water weight. I basically backed…

Anyone using RunKeeper?
I'm using RunKeeper app for my C25K program, and it's so much different than everyone else's! All these people are doing. Week 3 or 4, and talking about how nervous they are to move on to the next week. My week 3: Day 1- 45 minute brisk walk or light jog Day 2: rest Day 3: 2 mile run (walk some if you must, but run as much…

Alright ...
Ok, so nobody is even checking in on this group anymore! I am also in a group "lose 20 by July 4th. People actually post and reply there. I personally am still sticking to my April goal of losing 10 lbs. I was at 167.6 on the 1st, and today, I am 159. I have 3 days to try and lose another 1.4 lbs. I don't know if I'm gonna…

Week 1 newbies?
This is my very first time doing a C25K program. Everyone else's stories are so inspiring, and I'm actually looking forward to week 5! I know that at the point I'm at now, there's NO way I'm ready for it; I can't even make it 2 minutes straight right now. But the idea that I'm gonna be able to do that in a couple of weeks…

What's up?
So, is everyone in another group, too, or just decide to give up half way through the month? My personal goal is still to lose 10 lbs in April. I'm down 6.2 lbs so far! Plus, its my crappy week of the month, so with a little luck, there'll be a couple extra pounds added to that as soon as I get rid of the evil aunt! Lol I…

Is everyone still motivated?
I am down 3 pounds now since the first! I'm super excited! Only 7 more to go to meet my April challenge. I hope everyone else is having just as much luck, if not more. Just remember, you're doing this for you! For your health. For your happiness. For your ability to shock and amaze family, friends, and rock that swimsuit!

Where can I get fitted for shoes?
I am New to running, and I'm not sure where to get fitted for good running shoes. I see everyone saying to go to a running store, but I don't know where to find one near me. Anyone know where there's a good one that will do the fitting, gait analysis, and whatever else is needed for that near Branson, Missouri? That's the…

So far...
Well, it's the first Saturday of the month. So far, I've been doing great with staying under my calorie goal, and exercising daily. I haven't lost any weight yet, but I also started my C25K program, so I'm hoping that it's just water retention due to New muscles being used and repaired. I haven't lost weight, but I also…

By the first of June....
My mom, stepdad, little brother, and his new wife are coming to visit me at the end of June. I had my 4th child a year and a half ago, and STILL have not lost the weight! My summer 2014 goal is to lose at least 25 of my 45 pounds by the first of June. I woke up in the middle of the night a couple nights ago and saw a…

Running Pains
Every time I jog, which I can only do for very short periods right now, I get horrible pains in my ankles, like I've twisted it. It only lasts for a couple minutes before it goes away, but still very painful. Is this because of the weight? I have never been able to run for long periods, even when I was in really good…
