    OP' date=' what do you consider to be long distance running? Are my 3 miles long or short? Do you alternate Xfit and run days, do them both every day, what?[/quote']

    I do five miles at least on my run days, and I run twice a week and lift three times a week

    Totally unfair that you guys get "growth" and us ladies lose our "ladies" almost completely! HA!!!!!

    Well our "growth" benefits everyone if you really think about it...

    Another inspiring member.... I started at 303 and im 5'9"... I think i put off exercising for too long. Im almost 5 months out and only 72 down :-/ i hit the gym hard this week and im definitely paying for it lol.

    So when you run do you do treadmill or ground? How long did it take to build your endurance or did you run prior to surgery? Did you lift prior? Are you having any skin issues?

    Thank you for posting part of your routine!

    How long do you spend on cardio on your lift day? Do you just do circuit and lift every group? Ive been trying to mix this week - 30-69 min of cardio then lift... Chest/tri first day' date=' back/bis second, legs third.. Abs/obliques each day.[/quote']

    I always run outside on the ground, when I started in January I could only do a mile and in 5 months I've built up to 8 miles, no skin issues that I've noticed except where my ass and my thighs meet there is a small bit of access skin, I have lifted weights most of my life, but I lift differently now I only use body weight and dumbbell exercises and I always lift for one hour and I'm moving the whole time. My lifting is also cardio since I do really high reps for an hour nonstop. Anything else? Just let me know

    Having it around my wrist was one of the benefits for me. I like to wear bracelets and thought it would be completely comfortable. Guess Ill have to research some more before I decide. I've ears that the Polar T4 was a good option for heart rate/calorie counting' date=' which I think I'm more specific towards rather than the pedometer end of it all.[/quote']

    I use the Nike fit GPS watch and love it

    Amazing results... any before pictures. How tall are you and what was your starting and current BMI. You have no loose skin issues and your abs and love handles look great. Its a very hard area to trim down... whats your ab exercises like or was that achieved with mostly cardio. Any ideas how many calories your eating a day?

    How many calories do you burn on days you run?

    I'm 6'0 even, my starting BMI was 41 I do 20 min of abs everytime I lift. I don't count calories, and when I run I burn between 800-1000 calories. Any other questions?
