hey, your doing awesome with the running! I'm so proud of you!! I remember that second week too, just wait till week 4.
hey, the side ache, I used to get those all the time when I was in track and then later too. But this last time when I did the couch to 5k, I never did. A runner friend of mine told me not drinking enough water causes that. and you know what? when I did the couch thing, that was when I was drinking a liter of water every morning, so he must be right!
FYI, I watched David Wolfe, he's a nutritionist type guy, and he says that we ALL need to be drinking 1-2 liters of water the first thing we do when we wake up. and it really makes a difference in the bowel area. But you do need to do it first thing in the morning. and if your bowels are working well, that will only help with weight loss too.
I am TOTALLY in agreement on rearranging the furniture. have you done that yet in your house at all? great idea rob, or whoever said that!

well avoiding the scale during my pregnancy resulted in an EIGHTY POUND WEIGHT GAIN! I mean I expected to gain 40 pounds, 50 tops, but 80??? Oh well...hard work helped me shed 45 so far...35 to go!
my point is that I stopped looking at the scale and had no clue how much weight I actually gained. So for me, the scale is my "reality check!"

i am hoping that by osmosis or somethin I might get motivated to get back into running. I started to get back to it when I was on vaca down in Dallas a few weeks ago but I didn't stick with it when I came back to snowy PA.
LOOK OUT!!! I'm on it w/the rearranging the furniture. Wondering how it could work differently, considering the configuration. Does anyone have software for this? LoL Seriously, I'll do it! Hey, wait, I'll move all else out, and just leave the ONE couch. Ha! A little stark, and a giggle for me...
Thanks to all re: props for running!!! AND, I have an announcement!!!! <DRUM ROLL PLEASE!!!!> IF I make it past week five on the Couch to 5k, one of my really good soccer friends is signing me up to run a 5k w/her and two of the soccer coaches. It will be early May. That's enough time, I THINK!!! I told her I want to see the t-shirt, before I agree. LoL
CG - I like your eating style! Unfortunately, it caught up w/me!
Newmama - 80lbs!!! Good Lord, woman!!! You're going to hate me when I tell you this... (I THREW UP NON-STOP WHILE PREGO W/ALL THREE KIDS) And, w/D18, I gained a whopping total of 12lbs (and she was 9lbs 14oz when born!!), w/S12 I delivered three lbs UNDER my pre-pregnancy weight, and he was almost two months early, weighing 6lbs, 3 oz, AND w/S10 I gained 10 lbs, and he was a normal 7 1/2 lb'er.... So, I delivered all three of them, w/nothing much to lose, then nursed them for about a year and got so skinny!!!! It was sick! I would eat like a damned cow!!! Entire sleeves of raw cookie dough! And, I'd lose 10lbs! But, guess what happens when you stop nursing, and you still eat? YIKES!
ST - I'm on the water in the am! Love the info!!! I feel like I drink a lot of water, but not first thing... And, my Naturopath has me adding Fulvic Acid drops to it, which are not entirely appealing!!! (I need to go find your thread, as I thought I saw an update?!?!?!)
OK, BBIAB

The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.
wow, girl, 12 lb gains at the most??? that IS sickening! sounds like my great aunt who was already 110 lbs, and when she would get prego, she would always lose weight. the docs would be so mad.
my first kid it was great, as soon as I gave birth, I weighed less then my pre-preg. but the second one was different. I think I gained 50+ and then afterwards, I had to lose 25 or 30, and I'm thinking, WHAT? you mean I have to lose weight?? lol
yes, I did start a new thread, not much on it. I'm not sure why I still have one, but it's nice to release tension on occasion.

So, I got my three-mile walk in w/the BFF and dog this am! Once a week for an hour w/her is the cheapest therapy session out there! And, we talk NOTHING about my M. Just chat. Nice.
Also, went tanning! Gotta love that light therapy!!
I have a lot of work to do today. My boss (the owner) and I are considering hiring someone else for my territory, and having me do something else for the company. I think I'd like it, and he needs some organizational skills applied to our growing team!!! That's me! I like to sell, and still will, but I just can't get out and about like I'd like to to really do justice to my territory.
So, we'll see what happens...
And, H left yesterday am to go out of town. He must have txt'd me four times during the course of the day, checking in on things, and then called last night. I think he misses being a part of daily life because of his need to travel for work...
And, we have a night off from sports activities! Yea!

oh, I've heard you can get vit D from tanning! but, I'm sure the benefits don't outweigh the risks, but even though I'm a health nut, I occasionally tan. I'm a ghost if I don't!

this website might work- has a "room planner" program!
about nursing... I didn't lose much weight until after I stopped..I think the weight loss thing has to do with our predisposed body types, argghh! I have some Latin blood, which means hips and booty, and will never be a skinny minny! But can be a healthy, slimmer curvy woman!
