messejessie Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 I am new to this whole thing. My boyfriend sent me stacy's story to help motivate me to get back on my diet. So I decided to join because I need a little bit more support and keeping me honest other than just a lost it app on my iphone. Right now I lift three days a week and run two days a week. I believe in one cheat day so that you can still enjoy food life to an extent. I have a calorie limit and I am not allowed to go over it even on cheat days. I lost 23lbs on my own than stopped and gained 5lbs. I am starting to do the paleo diet. I just started it. I have to give myself a cheat day to eat bread or something just so I dont go crazy starting out. But thats pretty much what I am doing. Link to comment
KellyElizabeth Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 Hello Jessie!I believe in cheat days as well! I also believe in if I want a brownie, I can have a brownie, just not the pan of brownies. I'm a runner too, so how much are you running on your run days? We all start somewhere and I think you're going to do awesome! Happy. Dreamer. Runner. Teacher. Fighter. Girl. My journey for the juju. KellyElizabeth's First Challenge Thread Link to comment
messejessie Posted July 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 I was running a 5k every time because I am training for one in December, then i got off of it and now i am trying to build back up. Right now its 2 and half with a run walk combo. Don't want to kill myself trying to get back in the grove. Link to comment
KellyElizabeth Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 No that would not be happy. Slow and steady wins the race!I'm training for a half marathon next February. I'm not so much running as I am jogging most of the time. I love it. Happy. Dreamer. Runner. Teacher. Fighter. Girl. My journey for the juju. KellyElizabeth's First Challenge Thread Link to comment
