Welcome Lacey!! I actually changed the routine up after week 4. I couldn't seem to get past it, so I kinda made my own plan. Good luck with it!!

Thanks GG! I finished week 4 day 2 today and it was rough yet day 1 wasn't?! I guess that is what 3 days off and way too much ice cream will do to you (my dh left for 2 months yesterday).

Welcome Lacey... week 5 seems to be a hard one for most of us. My advice... just empty your head, don't think about it and just go for it. If you can't do the 20 min full out, no worries... try again next time. I spent 3 or 4 weeks at week 5, increasing my time slowly. I found the intervals messed me up at that point. Most of all... I find my head will either work for me or against me... mostly against me! LOL. Good luck!

Thanks Kathy! Luckily, I have about 2 *extra* weeks to play with between the C25K and my actual 5K...I may end up on week 5 for a bit.

I DID IT! I DID IT!! I RAN FOR 30 MINUTES STRAIGHT TODAY!!

WTG GG!!

I just updated mine and yet it is wrong here again...

B - 3/4 Kashi TLC Trail Mix bar

S - 1oz dill pickle cashews

D - meatloaf & 1/3c peas

I am bipolar (type II with rapid cycling to be exact:-) and was banded almost 3 months ago now.

BTW...I LOVE Nightmare Before Christmas.

When you get it all sorted, please add me...

ThatDEGirl

Honestly if I was you, I would seek out some counseling and lean here for support as well. Being a food addict is like any other addiction, there is no magic pill (or band in our case) to stop it.

I take a slice and spread a little reduced fat cream cheese in it and roll it up.

I like mine but find I rarely use it...I'm just not motivated at home, I need the gym atmosphere. I am tempted to get Jillian Michaels game that is coming out soon...she kicks butt.

I want to run a Marathon one day and raise money for Lukemia. Everytime i feel like im getting tired i think about the ppl that have cancer and cant even run and all the painful treatments they have to go through and it totally takes my pain away.

Heres a good tip: Write the word cancer on the bottom of your running shoe and when you run and you get tired you can remind yourself your stamping on that word.

I just want to say thank you, being a leukemia patient myself. I was diagnosed with CLL in February and so far have needed no treatments.

Did you find it easier to start on a treadmill or outside? I don't know how fast to put the treadmill...a little scared! LOL I currently power walk at 3.5 mph.

I am doing the treadmill right now, it is still just plain to hot and humid here to be outside. I am looking forward to moving outside though, so maybe the scenery will make the time go faster. I walk at 3.5mph and run at 4.5mph currently.

I've been lurking here for a bit...I am currently on week 4 day 2 (will be Thursday) with a goal of running our Feet to Faith 5K on December 13th. Was anyone else petrified about week 5? Any tips?

I shared this on another thread, but just had to share here. Monday's are my official weigh in day and I am officially in onderland!!! I haven't seen this weight in 7 years!!

I finally hit onderland this morning!! I am officially down 32.2 pounds now at 2.5 months post-op.

B - 1 orange sweet roll (won't do that again, it felt ugh going down)

L - 2oz chicken lunchmeat, 1oz colby jack cheese, 1 serving sun-dried Tomato basil wheat thins

D - 1/2 pesto chicken breast, a few bites of pesto tossed angel hair, 2 canned asparagus spears, 2 slices no sugar added canned peaches

Yep, since surgery my skin has done a complete 180 (I used to be very oily). It's been quite the learning curve for me, since I have NEVER had dry skin. I assume it is because I don't get as much fat in my diet but I don't know for sure. I know another lady that had rny and had the same thing happen.

B - boiled egg

L - 4 honey bbq any'tizers, 1/4c peas

S - 1oz honey roasted cashews

D - 3/4 italian sausage, sauce, 1/4c rotini and 1/4c bean and carrot blend

S - maybe a Jello cheesecake cup?!

That sounds so good! Will have to look for it when I go to the store tomorrow ... I already have hummus on my list (gonna give it a try although I still don't know exactly what it is! :thumbup:)

I agree...I know the commissary doesn't have it. I may have to make a trip to Winn-Dixie or Publix soon!

Well, my surgery was $24,000 and Tricare only paid right under $9,000. Doctors that take Tricare though, are not allowed to bill you the difference as I understand. This though is why a lot of places won't take Tricare anymore, they way under pay.

What are individual serving cups of Peanut Butter?? And where do you get them. Sounds like just what I need!! Becky

I know Jif makes some and I find them right next to the regular pb in my store. You need to be careful though, a serving of my pb's is 2tbs and these *cups* are way more than that.

I picked the last weight I was happy at and it meant losing 70 pounds. It was nice when my doc told me he expects me to lose no less than 65 pounds...really close to my goal. If I get below that great, but if not no biggie either.

I have Tricare Prime (south) and have paid nothing thus far and don't expect to pay anything.

Wow, that is a crazy cost. My doc charges $150 for no flouro and $300 (IIRC) w/flouro. All his are done in office, you said outpatient? Are you getting hospital fees in there too?

One effective tip is to eat something for Breakfast. Skipping Breakfast automatically throws our metabolism out of whack which is no good to losing weight.

I too though would tend to think you are overfilled if you are throwing up that often. Being over filled usually leads us to eat slider foods (crackers, chips, Soups, ice cream, chocolate, etc) which are typically higher in fat/calories.

I wish you the best of luck.

B - 1 piece cranberry raisin swirl toast w/ 1oz WW reduced fat cream cheese

L - weekly girl's lunch at Ruby Tuesday, 2 aisian dumplings w/ peanut sauce and 3 bites mashed cauliflower

D - 3/4-1c grilled chicken salad (spinach, romaine, grilled chicken breast, cucumbers, mushrooms, boiled egg, grape tomatoes, three cheese crumbles and light ranch)

I didn't have lovenox but I had heparin shots, 1 right before my surgery and 2 or 3 before I got discharged. Those hurt worse than any other *stick* i have ever had...and this is from a person that breezed through a bone marrow biopsy.
