I bought running shoes today--I love them. I promised my self I would run 6 times before I bought them and did that today! I did week 2 run 2 and it was a little easier this time. I am really loving this. I am glad it is fairly cool though, I wouldn't want to tryn this in the heat!! You guys are all doing great--Hooray for us!!!!:clap2:

[losingjusme 12]

I absolutely MUST get up early and do my last week 3 run. It has been raining for days here and I have been getting up, looking out the window and opting to workout at night inside. Just putting here for reinforcement! You guys are all doing great!

Well, my running isn't pretty either, but when whosyadaddy said the cowboy/cowgirl thing, that definately had me cracking up!:biggrin1:

Ok even though i completed week 2 already i did it again today hopeing to be ready for week 3 next week. I am getting huge weight loss results with it although im combineing it with swimming and weight lifting.

For example, since i have been using my more acurate scale in stead of my 10-15lbs light scale:

Yesterday at 4am : 378.5

Today at 4am : 376.1!

Woo hoo . I try hard not to weigh everyday and do 2 a week max but i couldnt help it this morning.

Wow there were ALOT of deer around this morning...be careful driving in those wee hours people!!

[losingjusme 12]

O and just so you dont think im perfect (an easy asumption to make) ...i had 2 slices of Bar B Q chicken pizza last night for dinner...i still was under 1500 cals hopefully for the day....but we all make mistakes ....not exactly the dinner of a high perfomance runner (one day!)

[losingjusme 12]

i dont see anything wrong with pizza in moderation ... sounds delish!

i am VERY tight right now ... had 3 bites of roast last night and wanted to hurl.

I hear you! Its weird how some days are tighter than others..

This mirning im super tight. I normaly eat about 1/2 cup of egg beaters every morning about 9am and today i am really feeling it! Normally they go right though.

Thats from the pizza...

I'm actually totally depressed. I stepped on the scale too, and I probably shouldn't have. I resolved about a month and a half ago to not step on the home scale anymore, I almost threw it out, it made me that crazy. I just use the docs scale, I usually see her every six weeks anyways. Well, I jumped on today and noticed absolutely no change. WTH.

I feel like I have been working so hard, and the junk food has absolutely changed. I was eating junk just about every day for a while (I was in a slight rut), and lately its only been one to two times per week. We're not eating at restaurants anymore, I've traded ground hamburger for ground turkey, no potatoes, no rice, no bread, lots of fruit and veggies. I even stopped eating so much cheese (mmmm, I love cheese). WTH?!!?!?! I know for sure I'm getting smaller, I'm in a smaller size and everything. Why won't the numbers move? I really try hard to not think numbers and think more about sizes, and how my clothes feel, and measuring, but for crying out loud, can't the scale move just a bit? Arg. Sorry, I'm really frustrated! I am so ready to cry!
