Good morning, Joyful! I am going to start an "Emme's Weight Loss" thread (like yours) to help me stay focused on my last 14 pounds. I want to be at my goal by the end of July, and this just might help me stay focused because I kinda took it easy in April.
I hope you don't mind that I start a thread similar to yours so I can update my stuff daily. I didn't want you to be offended and think I was copying you (which I totally am
), but I think it just might work for me.

Official Weigh-In = 154.2 I'm not excellingly happy, but considering I only ran twice this week and I've been eating 1700-1800 cals., I'm ok with a half pound loss. This week though...I'm going for a 2 pound loss...so...although my calories will stay roughly the same, I WILL run 4 times this week and drop these last lbzzzzzzzz!

Thanks for the thread Joyful. I've scanned through most of it and your journey has been interesting and giving me hope with my weight loss and possible jogging - though I'm not sure if I should start jogging with a normal pushchair. I need to book mark some of your reciples too!

What did the Doc say? You mentioned running for today, so I'm assuming your meniscus isn't torn? I really hope it's ok!
