Thanks for starting this. It motivates me to eat better when I have to report to someone(s).
Workouts - Still shooting for 5x per week. I've been getting 4 miles in a few days a week and doing elliptical/strength workouts to supplement. I wish I had time to swim but it's just not in the cards right now.
How's your eating? Much better. I still crave a jr bacon cheeseburger often though. and Iced coffee.
What are your goals? I would like to keep running until I hit the 20 week mark. Then drop down to walks. Long term I Just want to feel good & stay active for as long as I can.
Any tips for those feeling unmotivated? 1. Take it one day at a time. 2. Don't compare yourself to others. 3. 90% of the time, if I don't feel good that day, a workout actually makes me feel better than laying on the couch. 4. If you don't feel like getting up, tell yourself that you only have to do it for 10 minutes and if you're miserable you can stop. Usually once I get moving it's easy to keep going. It's the initial idea of "working out for x minutes" that makes it hard to start.
