i know it's possible to ignore threads (i have ignored some in the past and they pop up with "this post is in a thread you are ignoring" on the front page... i cant figure out how i ignored the thread in the first place??!?? thanks!

19K! wow!! you dont need luck, you'll do a fabulous job!

there is fitday.com that is free i use My food Diary :: Online Calorie Counter w/ Diet Journal & Exercise Log which you have to pay for, but i LOVE it!

i just registered less than an hour ago and it is starting to sink in now. 25 full weeks until i run. i have a feeling it is going to fly by. more info can be found here - Women Run the World 15K - Event Info

i'm going to follow the steps of the plastic surgery threads for my quest to HI-5 Minnie as i cross the finish Minnie's Marathon in May of 2008. i will post my workouts here as well as my thoughts or links to any relevant blog postings.

thank you guys ... i am really excited. i just registered for my first race. Women Run the World 15K - Event Info the Minnie (mouse) marathon. 15K = 9 miles

13 pounds in 13 days! that is wonderful! Congrats! :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

hi, im about 5' 9 1/2" and eat any where from 1000 - 1200 on a day i do not run. on my running days, i HAVE to increase it or i get light headed and i usually just have an added shake for a snack. the band really is amazing.

i started at 59.4 and now after 13 months, its 38.9 and dropping ...

Today's the day! best of luck to you Julie!

i have a german shep mix and a ???? LOL. we think he is australian shep and something... i think i'll try the paths alone and once i get the hang of it, maybe take one (never ever ever EVER both!!). they are both big and would be great for an early morning run when it's dark outside. i have several parks to choose from. i will try for one with a relatively flat path first. thanks!

i am so nervous to try outside ... :nervous i am SUCH a klutz ... i really dont wanna trip. i am scoping out parks with good trails and will try it. awesome job on the 5 mins! i cant imagine running with either of my dogs... they are quite neurotic

hi living, are you on the right view? there is "Today" "Yesterday" "Target" and "Trip" you can change views by the bottom left button. good luck

sounds like it worked out well, Karen. Great job!! how was the 5 minute run? do you do it 2x ? i think i will be running week 3 next week as well. the 3 minute run has just been so tough! i am going to try an outdoor run tomorrow... yay!

especially if the "ignore" feature is being used ???? :)

hi, there are different opinions on this topic. i tend to think i'd rather burn 400 cals an hour while staying mostly in the cardio zone versus 220 cals an hour in the fat burning zone ... **shrug** http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f81/debunking-fat-burn-vs-cardio-heart-rate-myth-41136/

poutine - there are cheese curds in there too. ick

katie, i think that is a reasonable goal. what are you going to do to get there? put it in writing - commit to it. you and i both know you can do it.

that's the plan ... :confused: not sure what your weight is, but we have monthly challenges on the "road to twoterville" thread. all weights are welcome!

oh dear ... i think i need a bucket! :confused:

mayo and ketchup on a burger is devine ... only if the burger is medium rare. speaking of burgers ... mmmmmmm ... DH/DD and i went to BJ's something or other last night ... sports bar type restaurant. i had the best burger in ages ... well - 1/2 burger. delish!!

laurend - your posts are futile ... you are being 'ignored' doncha know ???

ok. we'll start one right before thanksgiving...

my run today was ehhh ... i guess i was fatigued. my last 3 minute run i actually held on to the sides of the dreadmill for a little bit of it. **sigh** i still averaged 4.0-4.1 MPH for the entire time (warm up/cool down included) so its not bad, but i just feel exhausted. dawn - that is a great routine! how many cals do you eat on your running days? do you use any gels or anything? thanks!

*snort* :heh:
