Thanks ALL! i am glad i could encouarge you. I remember coming here and looking when i just got banded. It has been since AUG 07. I lost the forst 170 in the first 12 months.

I made it too 200 lost this weekend!

I made 200 pounds gone club this weekend! I got my bike outside just to practice clipping and unclipping my bike shoes. Was not as scary as id thought. TOo cold for mileage and way to much salt on the roads.

I gave up watching TV..playing Xbox360 and sleeping! yes i have to get up at 4am to make the workouts. i still watch Biggest loser on dvr

OK majormark for me. I just got passed the 200 gone! YEs that 200 pounds gone since aug 07. I had a wicked plateau for a while and i found eating tons fo fruit helped. Weird that i had fruit so much im starting to crave it instead of processed food and candy now! I cant believe that. I am actually 237 now. O another MAJOR thing. New workout. I set my self to run for 60mins and every 10 mins or every 1 mile i do 12-15 pushups. It totally confuses my muscles and i get a total upper and lower and body workout. I jump straight back on the treadmill. at the end i do 2 set of sit ups and or 2 sets of pull ups. It making me lose weight fast. Try it if your stuck ESPICALLY WOMEN!! You wont bulk up. Youll lose weight faster. Its ok to do women push ups where you keep your knees on the ground.

Just signed up for my first Half Marathon! April 18th Osh Kosh!

I am banded in Two Rivers/Manitowoc Area. anyone else near here or Green Bay?

Awwwww thanks. They just posted my results. 11th out of 29 total. Now in an outdoor tri you would be looking at 300- 700 ppl. Yes i was a swimmer and biker before becoming a runner. Not good at them but i could do it.

Kudos for the use of the term 'buggered'

Thanks! It was a super sprint. 1/4 mile swim (18laps) 5 mile bike (Stationary spin bike) and a 2.5 mile run on the indoor track I came in about 43 mins. To compare my GB tri is 1/2 mile swim 29mile bike 6.2 mile run (10k) :hurray:

Sat = double Spin class (45 mins each) i love doing the double on a sat! It racks up to about 40miles..but no running cas... Sun = Indoor triathlon!! Yaaaaaaaaaay super fun! 18 laps 5 mile bike 2.5 mile run indoors on the track. 43 mins

finished an indoor Triathlon this morning!!! Yaaaah. it was short but sooo much fun. its got me uber excited about this season.

100% YES!! but dont get the wrist sportband one. Nothing but problems

Tue : recovey run 4 miles, swim 1 mile, cycle 15miles, walked on the treadmill while i watched biggest loser. Wed: Ran 5 miles. Spin class for 55mins

I suffer from migraines too. Weather, too much sugar, stress, not enough sleep can set them off. Or any combo. I get about 2 a month. Normally i can manage them because i feel them coming on early. I know the signs and as long as i get meds quick enough i can catch it. The worst is when it comes at 4am and im too tight to take a pill. No liquid migrane medicine yet! Weight lifting normally makes it worse but running actually helps sometimes. It feels like it clears it out. It depends how bad its got by the time i run. Sorry you dont feel well Kathy. And yes i have had tons of brain scans to make sure there is anything not normal in there.

my bike is ready to go. New tires..new CO2 pump..dying for a Triathlon. I wanted a trainer too this year..but i put it off. Spin has been good to me. Also i am too lazy to take off the race tire and put a training tire on. Next cold season ill get one.

KAthy: SUPER JOB!!! FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I remember when you started! and look at you now!!! Who would of thought we could do this after we started C25k!

Me too. i had my longest run ever today. So on Sat i ran 12 miles and normally when ive run 10 my legs ache for about 2 days after. Well so achey yesterday. But i rested anyway. Today my legs were itching to go! so i ran 15 miles!!! 15!!! It took about 2hr 30 mins And i did a spin class afterwards for 55 mins.

Today: 15 mile run!! my longest yet..and a 55 min spin class. Woot!

MacMadame...yep welcome to Bricks! The more you practice them the easyier it gets.

Good Job Slinky!!! Today (Sat) i put in a 11 mile run in about 1hr 45min. Not too bad. I put some 10 miles in before but i need to keet it up. I signed up for olympic distance triathlon yesterday. Only done sprints till now. An Olly is : 800yrds swim, 29mile bike ride and 6.2mile run (10k) So i got to get some training finished.

Today an 11mile run. (about 1 hr 40mins)

Free weights today and a 45 min spin class I have to eat out tonight and tomorrow and i really dont like eating out any more.
