Yesterday B'fast~ glass of 1% milk mixed with vanilla moo magic Lunch~ small chili from Wendy's Snack~ small piece of cake, a few fritos with mexican dip (Nephew's birthday party) Dinner~ Captain D's: kids fish meal w/ steamed broccoli

WTG Whosya!! You Rock!!

I'm sooo in! Love the LITE idea!! Just got home from the gym and did another day of week 3. The knee is hurting a bit, so I'm gonna take some Tylenol and it should be better tomorrow. I hope to move on to week 4 soon. I hope this thread NEVER dies. Even when we all finish the C25K, we still need to keep this thread alive. I don't think I could do this without all of you. Oh, and I love the idea of all of us meeting one day. How cool would that be?!

I forgot to list my ultimate exercise goal. I would have to say running the 5k without stopping is the major one. I too would eventually like to venture off into biking and more swimming. Maybe a triathlon eventually?? This may sound crazy, but lately I've been thinking about eventually working at a gym. I know, weird right? I stay at home with my son now and I thought maybe when he's ready to start school, I may try to get a job in the fitness dept at the YMCA part time. I should be pretty close to my goal weight by then. Seems far fetched right now, lol. I don't know, just something I've thought about.

For bananas, I cut the banana in half first and wrap the half I'm not eating with clear plastic wrap. It works pretty well.

B'fast~ glass of milk mixed with strawberry moo magic Lunch~ a couple of bites of each: baked beans, green beans, cheese grits. Also had a very small piece of fish Dinner~ ate at a chinese buffet Snack~ a pickle

My ultimate goal is to weigh 150 lbs. I plan on having a tummy tuck, thigh lift, breast lift, and arms done. I also plan on having laser hair removal done as well. Can't wait!! Oh, and DH said he will take me on a cruise. Never been on one before, so that's really exciting!!

I usually drink my breakfast. What about yogurt or oatmeal? You should check out the "Share ideas" thread....lots of ideas there.

tootie~ WTG on week 3!! Keep up the good work! Whoysa~ Good luck in the Triathlon tomorrow! I know you will do GREAT! I agree with Kathy...make sure you post pics, okay! Kathy~ I go to the YMCA and do the machines there. They have a machine for just about everything. I may have to check that book out as well. Thanks Whosya!

LOL. I felt the same way about the girl who's song was Ice, Ice Baby! I found a video of your song and it's weird, it has no words, just music. Anyway, here's the link if anyone wants to watch it --> YouTube - Henry Mancini - Love Theme from Romeo and Juliet

I am happy to report that my knee is fine today. It's a little stiff, but that's it. This is the first time I haven't been in pain the day after a run since my injury. I'm excited and hopeful that I can run tomorrow. Everyone is doing great!!

This is an old thread, lol. Kinda cool though. Mine was "Call Me" by Blondie I couldn't get the link from the first page to pull up, so I found a website that does the same thing. Here's the link if anyone wants to check it out --> #1 Song on This Date in History BTW, I was 10 when "Ice, Ice Baby" was #1. I knew every word to that song, lol. STOP, collaborate and listen.... (hehe, good times)

Thank you bigbaby! I will definitely check it out. It just so happens I am going grocery shopping tomorrow.

I've never had the powder form, but I have had the pre-made muscle milk and it was DISGUSTING! Yuck, Yuck, Yuck!! It could have been so nasty because it was the "light" kind. I dunno, but I definitely wouldn't recommend those. Good luck!

Thanks everyone! I feel soooo revived! Jeannie~ 1&1/2 hours is fantastic! WTG!! Mamato~ Sending you BIG hugs! Sorry ya'll are having such a rough time. I'm glad your hubby felt better today though. Maybe he'll get to come home soon. Take care and keep us updated. Renewed~ Aww, the special girls night out sounded like sooo much fun. I'm soooo glad ya'll had a good time. You're right not to worry about your calories. If I know you (and I think I do, lol) you will back on track tomorrow and hitting it hard. What a wonderful memory for both of you. Sending you BIG hugs too!

((big hugs BBK)) I'm so sorry! What an ordeal you have been though. I hope it was caught in time. Take it easy and get some rest hun.

Okay, so I went to the gym, and I couldn't stand it.....I ran. I did another day of week 3. It went really good. Finished the whole thing this time. I feel soooo good! I needed a really good workout!

I just want to say that everyone here is doing sooo good! All of you inspire me! Whosya and Renewed~ you two ROCK!! Ya'll are my little running heros, lol! Kathy~ you are progressing soooo well! Keep it up girl! Oh, and kudos for sticking to the scale challenge. That's what I call dedication!! luluc~ I love reading your post, here and all over the board. Your exercise regime just baffles me. Les~ you are doing great too! Good for you for getting back on track and starting over fresh! Jeannie~ look at you progressing! Good for you! As far as your questions go, I agree with everything Renewed said. I always eat a healthy carb before I run (usually whole wheat triscuits or protein cereal mixed with yogurt) and I also drink milk afterwards. Sugar~ I know how you feel. I haven't ran either, gotta get my butt in gear! How's your legs? Bonnie~ you are doing soooo good! I still want to commend you for doing this now and not waiting until your surgery. I think that says a lot about you. Keep up the great work girl! Lyn~ You amaze me! Only a couple of weeks out of surgery and you were running again. I could not have done that. Keep up the good work! Oh, and thanks for the "two" breathing suggestion...I gotta try that! tootie~ you're doing great!! Keep up the wonderful work! Serenity~ you're doing an awesome job! Keep on truckin'! Mamato~ How are you? I've been thinking about you and praying for you and your hubby. All of you have inspired me to get off my pity party butt and do something today. I've been soooo bummed about my knee (which feels better again), I've gotten off track. I've had some other health issues going on too, one of them being I have a staff infection under my right arm. For the past week, any movement with my upper body has been painful. I'm on antibiotics and feeling much better now. So, I'm gonna quit moping around and go to the gym tonight. If nothing else, I'll ride the bike. Something is better than nothing!! So, thank you all for inspiring me to get back on track!

Plan for today: B'fast~ glass of milk mixed with vanilla moo magic Lunch~ mexican scrambled eggs...yum! (about 1&1/2 eggs) Dinner~ 1 c. Quaker oatmeal squares Cereal mixed with greek yogurt Snack~ 1 oz nuts, 1 tbsp honey

Congratulations on your surgery date!!! Sorry to hear about your aunt. Take care.

Oh no! BBK, so sorry you are going through this. I know you are probably worried sick. Hang in there BBK. You are in my prayers today.

BBK, sorry to hear about your pain and the choking. I truly hope it gets better soon. Take care and try to get some rest. Feel better soon.
