Hi all. I am new on this site. You have really encouraged me through your posts. I am starting over with the whole diet thing. I just re-joined weight watchers. I lost 3.2 this week ( my first one). I have already lost 30 lbs through only exercise. I have been running(3 days per week) and a powerflex class (2 days a week). I am really curious as to how long it will take me to build up to around nine miles. I have set a goal to run a 15k in March. Any suggestions will help. I still weigh 224lbs and have had some trouble with my feet but I am still running.

hey guys- I'm feeling much better I realized later that night that my blood pressure med was still in my med box.. I take lots of medications ( had a kidney transplant nearly 2yrs ago) and that one must have slipped by... I'm sorry for worrying ya'll.I did call my doctor he said just to watch my bp the next couple of days and I should be able to exercise the rest of the week...

I felt much better Thursday and watched my bp and I was able to walk. i did 50mins... Friday was really busy so I didn't do anything.
Sat- 35mins of aeorbics 20mins of weights.


WELCOME degachick24

Hi all!

I just signed up for the president's challenge too... and my goal is to do 5-6 days a week of 40 minutes of cardio + 30 minutes toning + occasional swims and playing DDR. I've been doing 20-30 minutes of cardio up till now and feel ready for more.

I've am currently an at-home exerciser with DVDs, resistance bands, balance ball and weights... no need for anyone to see me jiggling my jigglies yet

Thanks for the welcome. I really need the accountability lately. I have been working lost of extra hours and I am having trouble getting up in order to get my run in. I live in Florida so it is still hot here and I prefer to run in the morning before work in order to perform better. My goal is 3-4 days of atleast a 2 mile run and weights two days per week.

Wow! reading all your emails on the 9k's 5k's you guys do, you are really an inspiration. I did Cathe's IMAX 1 yesterday but am catching a cold. Am going to try and do her bootcamp tonight after work if I feel okay. Food intake is still bad, need to really work on that. Motivation just isn't there, and I don't know why.
