I used to be on here last year, lost about 15lbs, then I moved in with my boyfriend, quit smoking, and just went to the doctors and found out I gained 17lbs in a year !! I have to get on the scale weekly {I'm deathly afraid of it. } So, I am up to 178lbs right now and I have A LOT to loose. Ugggh. Motivation anyone ?!

Thank you AuntMussy,  I will def check that one out at Walmart. Congrats on reaching some of your goals !!

Ok so I have to ask what this this condition is called and when approx it will go away. I haven't jogged / ran in i'd say 8 years, maybe a little longer...

Today I took a walk, approx. 2 miles. In the middle I wanted to try jogging, so eventually I can alternate for a HIIT workout.... well, after maybe 200 feet I had major cramps, a sharp pain in my side, and was out of breathe.... I had to just walk the rest of the way.

I have been regularly using the Gazelle machine all winter for about 30 mins 4 days a week and this made me feel REALLY out of shape !! Any ideas ??

Also, what type of sneakers do you use for your jogging  ??

Thanks for any tips.

yes that explanation helped a lot, thanks. so i need to eat a little bit MORE than I am to lose weight..... I kind of thought maybe that's what it was... I will try it out at 1400 calories a day and see what happens.

 thanks again.

Thanks sixtyfive & kjuliane !! Yes, I will wait a few more days before I weigh in, I was up till 11pm painting again last night, we finished the kitchen so basically the painting is done for at least a month, then i'm gonna go get the colors I want to paint my exercise room.

; )

I got a large sub from a local pizza store.... I had half.... then there was half left, which I cut in half to make 2 other meals.....

 Thanks for the reply !! 

I am just wondering... what is this Phase 1 ?

What is the name of the diet.... I hear all these good results with the Phase 1 ... is that the name of the diet ?

Hi, I just finished writing a journal about smoking. I suggest if anyone can get Chantix, to do it. I know so many people who have quit with it. Like I said in my journal, I'm into my 3rd week... the last pack I had last a week for me...

Good Luck to you and everyone who wants to quit smoking.
