Teachers?
Hey all! I'm a 20-something teacher, yogi, and learning to be a runner - I used to use MFP a few years back but just got back into it and have already seen great progress but I still have about 30 lbs to go. I'd love some new friends to help encourage and motivate each other along the way😊

Starting June 1st!
Hi! I just got my T25 and will be starting it in June...would love to find people on a similar timeline to help keep each other motivated and accountable! I'm a 21 year old female with about 20 pounds to lose :)

Twice a week instead?
Hi all, So I've tried C25K before and always given up around weeks 3-4 but I'm determined to change my lifestyle now that I am living on my own without roommates to distract me from my plans and I would really love to try this again. However, with my schedule, I just don't have time to run 3 times a week right now. So…

Too much?
I currently go to the gym 2x/week where I work with a trainer (focusing primarily on lifting) and do one workout (cardio/bodyweight exercises) on my own at home another day. I also go to 2 pilates type classes a week. I would really love to try the C25K program because as much as I generally despise cardio, I have always…

Barre Fitness
Anyone ever tried barre fitness classes? I've just discovered a studio near me and am considering checking it out, but I don't know anyone who's ever done it before, so if anyone has any advice/recommendations/thoughts/comments/opinions, I would appreciate it!

Starting Again..
I tried C25K earlier this year, before summer hit and I made it to about week 4 before getting overwhelmed with the rest of life and giving up. Now, I think I'm ready to try it again. I have a friend in the area who also wants to try it, so we're going to help motivate each other and keep each other accountable. I want to…

Anti-Fungal Diet
I've recently been encouraged by my trainer/nutritionist to try the anti-fungal diet. I'm a little skeptical and I know it would be a lot of work for me to stay on track for the full 2 weeks so I need to know it will be worth it to do it. She says its main purpose is basically to detoxify the body/liver and kill off…

Students?
Any other students in here? I'm a 3rd year student at uOttawa, living in Sandy Hill. It'd be great to know some people in the same age group/lifestyle/area as me!

30DS with resistance bands instead of weights?
So I've been thinking about starting 30DS since I should be able to do it in my room (no real work out space in my apartment) and I've heard of some fabulous results from it. But, I don't have weights, nor do I want to buy them. I have a resistance band that I usually use instead, so I was just wondering if anyone knows if…

Starting after Easter, anyone else?
Hey all! So I've decided to start on this wonderfully terrifying journey of C25K after Easter weekend...my first run will probably be Tuesday, April 2nd. Anyone else starting soon? I think I'm going to need all the motivation/support I can get and I would love to have someone to do this with! :)

Hot weather?
So I'm hoping to start C25K in the next few weeks, but that will have me finishing it (or still doing it) right in the hottest part of summer. I'm pretty sensitive to heat as is, and I get hot and sweaty really fast when it's hot and humid out. I was just wondering what you guys do during the hottest parts of summer? I…

Fat Calves
So, I've always had pretty fat calves, even when I was at my thinnest, they were still pretty thick. They are muscular, but there's also a layer of fat on top of that. I was just wondering if anyone else out there deals with this, and if so, did they get slimmer as you lost weight? Or am I destined to have fat calves…

Red face
For as long as I can remember, any time I get hot or am being active, my face gets warm and red really quickly. If I'm exercising intensely, my face goes so red that I've actually been asked if I'm okay. I also seem to sweat more than the average female. Does anyone know if this will go away once I start shedding some…
