Nice. I am going to check out the Kayanos ones you are all talking about.

Awesome Beachgirl (name?, lol), What is Triometrics? I am familiar with the Beachbody workouts , but not that one? Never heard of it. I love Insanity, Combat30, T25 and these running apps, cant ever get any better than that. I am a mover and a shaker, so Yoga and Pilates are not for me, I am way to active. I do yoga usually a little after every workout to stretch but to take a class, I would die, lol.. I am outdoors hiking, walking, biking, running when it is not to hot out. Indoor with DVD's when the weather is not good.

There is nothing in the world like looking in the mirror and knowing you are accomplishing your weight loss goals.

Hi There, I am checking in with everyone today! How was your workout if you are finished this morning? Or, what wll be your workout later?? I worked out to an AB DVD, and my friend and I lifted weights, Upper Body, Lower Body, ABS! Tonight we have a Peak training class at the school, I cannot wait. 3 Days a week we do the 10k app. My friend and I are both bound and determined to get this weight off. I do not think I have been this motivated in forever. Have a Great day, and get your workout in!

Hey Candace, Nice to meet ya! I am so excited for your race coming up! I am getting my butt in shape right along with you! Have an awesome day yourself!

Hi there. Welcome to the forums. We are all root for each other on here. Awesome for you to lose 55lbs so far. Aren't the apps amazing??? I love it. Great motivators. What is your name??? When is your race???? Have a great day!

Way to go Farmgirl. We are all here to cheer you on. Any help you need, just ask. The first step is the biggest in wanting to change. I always say I'm on the Love Diet, cuz I'm in love and that's why I'm fluffy. Lol. You bet anyone can do this and you are doing it. As you work out more and more, you will want to change your eating habits. But it's one step at a time. Good for you for giving up smoking. I quit in 1998 and never looked back. Keep us posted please on here. So proud of you. Lets do this!

My breakfast is usually 2 eggs and 2 pieces of bacon. Fruit to follow. String cheese for a snack, lunch I usually eat meat and a salad. A protein bar mid afternoon or celery and peanut butter. Dinner is meat, veggies , I'd do add rice and potatoes once I awhile. I am human and we all get bored. One day a week we cheat. Cheating really helps too. Sunday through Friday we are reallly good. I have lost 10lbs. I do believe in eating clean for the most part. You won't want junk food very much as it makes you feel I'll after you've been eating clean. We love our cocktails on the weekends but now feel,like we keep losing and gaining it back every week. So now the hubby and I are back on no cocktails at all. That I miss the most, lol. But I am soooo committed to losing more weight. ASAP. No more sabotage. It's no fun anymore anyways drinking. Ugghhh. I am determined to lose this weight for good. I have some Paleo recipes on my site at Cavegirlcancook.com. Also there are great books out there to on Paleo. I love Paleo as I'm not a big sugar eater. Never have been. You have to do what is right for you. I am not a Dr., so check with your Dr first. I just try it all so I know. That's me. I rotate my breakfast, eggs one day, a shake another day, juice one day, etc... Depends in my mood.

Rc49, if you feel like you are ready for the 13.1 app and want to try it. Go ahead. Don't set yourself back by training too hard. If the 13.1 works, then go ahead. Repeat days if you have to. I started with the 10k app and not the c25k. But that's me. Great job for wanting to move on up. Have you tried the 10k app at all?

Hey there, I do not know how to announce you ALSFroggie, We have a lot of friends who did the 4Hour Body Diet. They have a book out on it. It is basically Meat, Veggies, Beans, no fruit, and one major cheat day once a week. I have done this and it is a good one. I do like my fruit so I LOVE the Paleo Diet for me. I am not a DR., but you can choose what you want to do. Seek help from a DR., if you can first. I will not recommend any diet for anyone, only give you a little guidance. Ask me any question you want to! Thanks

Hi Everyone, I am here to introduce myself to you today. My Name is Kelly and I have been added as a Moderator here. I am super excited about this job. I have been into Fitness for over 20 years. I love it. My husband Keith and I are 'Empty Nesters" as of 2010. We love it. WE both stay pretty active with Riding our Harleys, Hiking, some biking, Flying (hubby is a private pilot), Gparents to one precious little girl who is 6, Parents to my Step daughter Kim, and our two boys, Josh and Jordan. Our youngest just graduated College and we are finally financially free of all three.. lol haha, yay. I am one hyper busy gal! I will never ever slow down in my life. I got into Fitness while we were living in Amsterdam, Holland for almost 5 years. I went over there in 1993 overweight. I never noticed it as I am in love, lol.. So, one day I was bored and an English friend from MOPS, asked me to come to the gym and workout. SO I did, I got hooked as everyone was incredible to me. SO many people from lots of different countries. I ran 5ks, 10ks, half marathons and 1 Marathon (Not for me the marathon), but I love the smaller ones. I went back to the States after I lost all of my weight, like 30lbs I think. I got certified into teaching and went back back to Holland. The boss there would not let me teach because she didnt think I could do it. Everyone kept telling her I could. SO, one Saturday, where the Step Class was VERY ADVANCED, she asked me to teach. Holy Moly was I nervous. BUT I DID IT!!! It was one tough class and I was hired on the spot to subsitute teach. GO ME!! I am AFAA, ISSA, ASF, NACFF, CPR, Associate of Science in Health & Fitness, Personal Trainer Certified. I cannot get enough!!! I love this so much! I never looked back and I ended up teaching 10x plus classes a week at various sportschools. whew boy. I could not keep weight on and could eat everything, lol. Came back to the States and pretty much kept it up. I have always worked out very well, but I ran into burnout like most instructors do. I eat great, but got lazy. I have been on a weight loss journey myself to lose about 20 lbs. WE are all in this together, so Lets do this together!!! I am loving these apps and talking to everyone on here. Ask me anything! TEll me about you!! WHAT MOTIVATES YOU?

That would be an incredible add on. I will Def forward your comments to them. GPS would be awesome.

The share button is share the app. Hmmmmm maybe email them directly and ask them?

Hi there. Which app Lisa? I am doing the 10k one. I dont think it saves because you move on each time you go out for a run. You can see it that way. On the second tab from the left on the bottom, there is the settings button. There is a share button there. Not sure if i answered your question or not?

Hey. Thats awesome. You will become addicted to it. Ive taught for years and i got so burned out. I was in such great shape when I lived in Holland. Back to the states in 1998 and weight came back. Im sick of it so now i am doing it again. I love these forums for motivation and the apps. Super fun. I will look up some exercises for you to do for the IT band. Not reallly heard of it and i am curious. Have an awesome day.

Great job everyone. My friend and i were on a roll and did 2 days today. We only do that when we feel awesome and today we did. Love these apps so much. Proud of all of you. Lets do this.

Thanks Beach girl, I will look into those. I tried those toe ones and did not like them. For water yes.

So, what do you follow, if at all in the way of eating? I hate the word DIET, who likes to diet? Noone. NADA, not me, lol. I LOVE PALEO, I have a website called www.cavegirlcancook.com I put up recipes the Paleo way. Paleo is Meat, Fruit, Veggies, I do add potatoes and rice sometimes too, I am human and I get bored.. I will not give up my cheese, ever, period. SO what do you eat??? Atkins? Nutrisystem, Medifast? I have friends who have lost a lot on Medifast, but I am rebel ad cannot stand for someone to tell me what to eat. But that is just me... We cheat every Saturday and that does help to burn more weight off. My husband Keith likes The 4 Hour Body diet, i am ot a big bean lover due to the.......... factor, you get that. lol BUt he loves it.. ANyways, thoughts, ideas?

Hey , there is help here. Before I run, I eat something in the way if a protein. SMall for sure, otherwise I get ill... I like a boiled egg, string cheese, half of a protein bar. THen a shake after my run. I cannot run on an empty stomach.

So, do you not know how many calories to eat in a day? Want to know what your ideal weight should be? Calculate your BMR? (basal metabolic rate) Body Composition? Body Fat? Your RMR? (resting metabolic rate) Target Heart rate should be? Max Hear Rate? I have put them up on my website at: http://cavegirlcancook.com/fitness-calculators/ I use them all the time. Love it. Must be an app for that somewhere?? Zen Labs?

I was using an App called Dailyburn for workouts. It does cost monthly. I am sure there is an app for Kettlebell workouts? I will look into it for you.

You guys are doing great. Way ahead of me. We can do this. It is perfectly OK if you have to stop and catch a breath, I stop, and lil rest, and get back on it.

When I don't feel like working out or I can't, I get my steps in around the house, cleaning something, squats on the phone, push-ups on the counters, jog in place. Don't be too hard on yourself. 3 days is great to workout. Don't feel guilty about working out an d hubby puts the kids to bed. Us Moms feel guilty about getting time for ourselves. Good luck.

Hey farmgirl. I so hate that too when it happens. Just start off slower and when your lungs clear, get back to where you were. Not won't take long to be back in track. Hope you are feeling better fast. Hugs.
