Thanks Kristen!! I am glad to be back too! Good luck with your 10k!!! I know you will do great!

Yeah, I know, lol. I have been sleeping in the past few days, so that is why I have been skipping.

Today B- skipped L- a taco, few chips and cheese dip D- WW sweet and sour chicken meal S- protein shake

WTG REALIZE!!! That is awesome!! Well, I started the c25k over again and completed day 1 of week 1. All I can say is WOW! It was hard!! Feels like I'm starting over from scratch. It's amazing what 3 months of no exercise and 30 extra pounds does to you. I ran around our appartments today, I wanted to be close to the oxygen just in case. Thank the Lord, it didn't trigger a headache! I really feel like the cycle has ended. My sister has the flu, so I decided to go ahead and start without her. If she still wants to do it, I'll repeat week one with her. I am just soooo excited and thankful to be able to run again!! It feels GREAT!!

Yesterday- nothing Today- Day 1, Week 1 of couch to 5k (sucks having to start all over)

Movie night...need I say more, lol. Today B- skipped L- small baked potato and small chili D- small popcorn at the movies (with butter), and some bottle caps :sneaky:

Thanks Suzanne! I'm so glad you are able to run now too! I think I've talked my sister into doing the C25K with me. We may even start next week... Good luck at the docs office...hope you have good news!! Hi Brandy! The first time I did the C25K, I repeated many many weeks, lol. It's better to go slow than over do it. Good luck with it!

Thanks! Still no headaches so far. I actually didn't get to workout until this morning. My son has been really sick, so I didn't have a chance. I did a 2 mile walk this morning and it went really well. It didn't trigger a headache, so that is good!! My plan is to walk for few weeks to build up some endurance, then start the C25K over again. Thanks for asking about me. As far as shirt tucking, I've never been a shirt tucker...even when I was pretty thin. I just never though it looked good on me. Lots of people look great with shirts tucked in, I'm just not one of them, lol. It's funny how pictures will show us things we never see in the mirror. I sometimes think I look pretty good until I see a picture, lol.

Hi everyone! I started back exercising today after being sedentary for a few months. I'll have to gradually build back up... Today: walked 2 miles...not much, but it's a start!!

Hello everyone! I am happy to report that I have been headache-free for 18 days now. I PRAY that means the cycle has ended, at least for now. I ended up gaining 30 lbs while on the steroids...being sedentary did not help the matter. I am off the steroid now and I am taking Verapamil. I haven't noticed too many side effects from it, besides being fatigued and lower endurance. I got up this morning and decided to try exercising. I walked 2 miles, and guess what....it didn't trigger a headache!! Whooo Hoooo! Can you tell I'm excited??? My plan is to walk for a couple of weeks to build some endurance, then start the C25K over from the beginning. I am hoping to complete the C25K by December so I can run the Jingle Bell Jog. Wish me luck!

So sorry for your loss. Your family is in my prayers. Today: B- LC slim fast L- 1.5 c chili S- 100 cal popcorn and some pecans D- chicken bowl

Today B- oatmeal L- taco salad D- shared an appetizer sampler from Applebee's with my son

Yesterday B- LC Slim Fast L- 2 slices thin crust veggie pizza D- same as lunch S- glass of milk

Hi everyone! Thanks for all the positive thoughts and prayers for my FIL. He is recovering well and doing much better. I've been out of town since Thursday, so I'm not going to bother logging all the delicious food I ate, lol. I went to the Women of Faith conference in Atlanta and had a blast. Mandisa, from American Idol, was there and let me tell you, she was the highlight of the convention!! Love her! I wish I had her energy, lol. Also, I haven't had a cluster headache in about 14 days, so I am praying that my cycle is over, at least for this year. I am going to attempt to start exercising again tomorrow, and pray it doesn't trigger a headache. Ya'll wish me luck!

It's been a rough couple of days. My FIL was having chest pains at work yesterday, so he went to the hospital and ended up having 3 stints put in. Thankfully, he didn't actually have a heart attack and a lot of damage. So glad they caught it early. Today B- Activia yogurt L- 1 cup Fiber One cereal, 1/2 cup Hood milk S- Oatmeal raisin cereal bar D- Spaghetti

I was glad to see Lauren go home. I didn't like her....she's a rat.

I think I'm turning back into a sweetaholic! I really need to do a detox. We are going to a BBQ restaurant tomorrow, so I think I'll do shakes for b'fast and lunch and eat a bowl of brunswick stew for dinner. Starting Saturday, I may do a couple of days of LC shakes. I crave sugar like crazy! I know if I can last a few days without it, the cravings will go away. Sticking to it is the hard part! On a good note, I finished up all my steroids! I'm soooo glad to be off of them. I am going to have to work hard to lose all the pounds I've gained! Especially since I can't exercise right now. Okay....vent over.
