at about how much weight lost did your boobs start to shrink? I want mine to shrink!!! I'm down 30 pounds, but I don't think they've gotten any smaller yet.

That seems to be happening to me too... it stinks. I was doing great for the past couple weeks, and now... i've gained a pound or two, and i can't shake them. it's frustrating, i REALLY want to get 180 by my birthday, but it doesn't look like that'll happen. gotta kick my own ass at the gym tomorrow! 4 days without workin out....:thumbup:

Personal pizza -1 whole wheat pita -2 Tbsp pizza sauce -3 oz chicken (cut up into small pieces) -1 Tbsp ranch (I like wishbone lite ranch) -2 slices provolone cheese -2 tsp hot sauce (if you want a kick) -spread hot sauce on pita -mix chicken and ranch (and hot sauce) in a bowl -pour mixture onto pita -cover with provolone cheese -bake 12 min at 400 -broil on high until browning on top Tuna Melt -4 pieces whole wheat melba toast -1 can chunk light tuna in Water (I like chicken of the sea) -2 Tbsp ranch (same kind as above) -2 slices american cheese (I like 2%) -salt and pepper for taste -drain tuna, then mix with ranch and S&P -spoon even amounts onto pieces of melba toast -fold each piece of cheese in half to make 4 pieces, then place on each mini melt -heat in microwave for 30 seconds, or longer to melt more Stuffed shells -3 to 4 large Pasta shells -6 Tbsp low fat cream cheese -1 oz chicken cut up in pieces -1 slice provolone cheese -2 tbsp pizza sauce (or spaghetti sauce) -cook pasta shells -put chicken, cream cheese, and provolone cheese in bowl, then heat for 1 min--mix up -fill each shell with equal amounts of mixture -spoon sauce over Cordon bleu -1 chicken breast -1 slice swiss cheese -1 slice ham (lunch meat works great) -egg white wash -1/4 cup bread crumbs -pound chicken breast to 1/4 inch thickness -layer cheese and ham on chicken -roll up (place a toothpick to hold it) -cover with egg white to moisten the chicken -roll in bread crumbs -bake at 375 for 30 min (or to internal temp of 175) (red sauce on top is good, but not necessary)

-So... here's an update. I haven't been able to run since last week because it's hurt my knee so bad. -I bartended a party tonight, and there was an E.R. doc as a guest, so I asked if he could check out my knee. -He said i pulled my ligaments because I have flat feet that pull too hard on them. -He said that I'm out of commision (as far as running goes) for 3-6 weeks. -I'm REALLY sad because now I'll have to push back my training that much. -I was really loving being able to move... -Now i'm getting really discouraged because the scale doesn't seem to be moving enough for the work that I was doing, and now that I can't to treadmil work, I feel totally unmotivated, and have cheated for the past couple days... -I need help to get back on track... :frown: -I'm very disappointed for letting myself get so discouraged so quickly.....

Alright. Totally overtraining! I took the day off yesterday, and the legs felt a bit better today, but not good enough to run on... learned that the hard way. So i walked, and I'm going to start weight training tomorrow. I like Kathybad's idea. Mon-Wed-Fri I'll do weights, and Tues-Thurs-Sat I'll run, and rest on Sundays. Hopefully that'll help melt the pounds too... Still got 24 more to lose by 8/30/09! WHOO!

Oh yeah. I thought I'd let you all know. I joined the PPRR (Pikes Peak Road Runners.) And I have picked out about 11 races I want to run/walk by the end of the year. **I know, I'm ambitious** And there's a local group, the Jack Quinn Running Group, that I think I'm going to run with. They do a 5k every tuesday. They call it a Run / Walk / Trot / Stagger / Crawl to the finish. So everyone's welcome, and it'll get me involved with locals.:tongue_smilie:

So, I think you're right. I'm overtraining. I just read the program again, and it says I'm only supposed to train 3 times a week. I've been training every day. So, I'm taking today off... hopefully I'll feel good enough to run by tomorrow, if not, then I guess 2 days off. It makes me feel REALLY guilty when I don't run. Now that I'm in the habit, I feel like I'm cheating when I don't exercise. I don't want to get too comfortable sitting around again.
